Downtown Birmingham, ALABAMA
by jb3838
Downtown Birmingham, despite its reputation is NOT dangerous -- not even at night. The crime rate Downtown is comparable to that in the posh suburbs of Vestavia Hills. In addition, if you feel even slightly uneasy, or need any kind of assistance, all you have to do is call CAP and they will have someone at yoiur side within a minute or two: they patrol downtown on bicycles and vehicles weeknights and Saturdays until 11:00 pm. The primary crime Downtown is car break-ins; the primary crime in Vestavia is home break-ins.

It is hard to get rid of, but recently it's proven to have other uses such as herbals and basket weaving!

Religious Fanatism
by KaiM
'Come to Jesus or rot in hell' - I read this line on a roadside billboard in Alabama. Beside the letters some Christian fanatics also painted a devil. I don´t understand those people. Don´t we have the freedom of religion? Why do they try to influence others? Everybody should have its own faith. And it really doesn´t matter whether that is Christian, Muslim, Buddhism, Hinduism or anything else. Believe in the good things - that´s what it is all about.

Pollen

POLLEN!!! pollen is really bad during the pollen season...I like to think of pollen as the Alabama spring time snow. If your allergic to pollen then the early spring time is not the time to visit.
