Anyway, we down here are looking at a bigger picture...competing with the rest of the region. As far as the state of AL, yall can have that for now.

Yeah, I'm black and a product of John L. LeFlore High School representing the northside of Mobile...Toulminville. Speaking of Rich Boy, I pass by his daddy's store last night and it looked like he was standing outside...I know I saw his car out there for sure. His new mixtape, Bigger Than the Mayor, drops on my birthday...April 15th. Gotta go cop dat!

Could everyone from Mobile, who wants to, tell what high school they went to and what part of town they from??

The other counties that you mentioed in Mississippi are part of Mobile`s Marketing sector, but are not included in the metro hopefuly that will change soon.

How about that's where I stay now...right down the street from White's barbershop/college on Peach St. near Hercules. I graduated from LeFlore in 2006.

I was ridding from work to school Thursday and Come Back Home to Mobile posted a billboard advertisement for the KC-45 and move back home! Since then, today they have the advertisement on every digital billboard. It is nice to see. Cody road, M.C.A. 2000.

(quoted from hallman02 on previous page )

"Despite leadership issues, the area has a lot going for it. That, Addy says, "makes you marvel and wonder what Birmingham could achieve if it had the right ingredients."

Yeah, yeah, yeah

SORE LOSERS, well they haven't lost yet, but they will

"Since the 1980s, the city and county have forged a wide range of partnerships, including a combined jail and other programs in departments that work side by -side in Government Plaza."

That is VERY unique. I think this does have a lot to do with the big deals we've been landing.

"Home to people representing 90 nationalities, the city also hosts an annual international festival that draws big crowds.

ThyssenKrupp executive and recent Mobile transplant Thomas Woelker said he and his family have been warmly welcomed to the city, where he's noticed a growing global community.

"It might be a little small right now, but it's coming up," he said, adding that he's befriended Ethiopians, French and fellow Germans since his arrival last year. "When I talk with people, they say, `Oh, my grandpa was a German, or my grandpa was a British guy.' You find many, many international roots here."

Imagine Mobile with a China Town!

I think the growth in international population is good for the city, it adds some spice. Personally, Mobile's the friendliest city in Alabama, that I have ever been to anyways. Everyon talks about southern hospitality, but there are places that you go and never find it. The first day I was here, I was in a Wal-Mart and realized that I had lost my wallet. The coupke behind me paid for my $25 worth of groceries! And, after talking to me and realizing I was new in town, invited me to their home for dinner!! PEOPLE this DOES NOT happen anywhere else in this COUNTRY! At least not where I've ever been. It's funny, everyone talks about the "crime in Mobile" but I think the friendliness of the city is WAY too downplayed.

Never ever ever would have thought that it would people from my part of Mobile would ever be interested in a site like this one besides me.

Murphy is the largest school in the state of Alabama, I always thought it wasHoover but it`s not. It`s Murphy #1, Bob Jones (Huntsville area), Hoover # 3 and Murphy is a direct reflection of Mobile`s Spanish heritage with it`s architecture. There is no other school well atleast in the state of Alabama with European architecture .

I`m very Confident in the Tanker Project in Mobile, I`m just ready for all the other stuff that will come with it.

Pboo looks like your the old man around here... I had no idea everyone was that young either. I guess most of the old folks still have a bitter taste in their mouth after Brookley and the paper mills all closed up shop.

I guess you could consider us young professionals!
