Haha, it IS true that gang violence isn't a huge problem here, especially in the smaller cities. Even in Louisville and Lexington, it's nothing compared to other places.
The one thing that would even be a problem in Georgetown is meth (although I actually have no idea.) Here in Owensboro, it got pretty bad for a whlie. I had to read about a new meth lab bust every other week, and one was just down the street from me. It seems to have cooled off somewhat, though.
>As for the accents, I think they are kind of cute.
That's fortunate, because you'll be hearing a lot of them. Most people here, especially in the smaller cities, have a pretty strong accent (although I'd like to think I don't...)
To everyone else: sorry for being so off topic! orz
Uh.. how to be on topic quickly.. right! I have some sake, and I'm going to drink it tonight.
