    I'd like to think I'd live in DC and just hang around Congress or Federal Courts and go to lectures at think tanks, New York for theatre and museums, and Cambridge, MA for academic lectures; but I'm pretty sure I'd just move to L.A. and watch sitcom and talk show tapings.

    I'm pretty happy in Colorado. I think I would split time between here and San Francisco

    Portland. Mainly because the dream of the 90's is alive in Portland.

    Isn't Portland a relatively poor/cheap city?

    If I had unlimited funds, I wouldn't pick it.

    I love Texas but if I had to choose a different state...NY. I love city life and I think I would absolutely love it there. I've been to Cali a good amount so if there was a steady stream of money, I would be all for it. My dark horse pick is Minnesota. Land of 10,000 lakes. I would want a nice set cabin somewhere in the woods and just be out on a nice lake somewhere.

    No love for Hawaii?

    Personally I'd go for Canada, eh. :)

    California - surfing, year round tennis, wineries, beautiful outdoor areas where you can hike, snowboard/surf, camp, etc. all in the same weekend if you wanted. Fishing is great as well in California, and weather can't be beat.

    Probably Colorado for me. If I could get a job out there that pays what I get here, I'd want to move.

    Went to Denver, Colo last year and fell in love with the city. Rented out a cabin in Winter Park and had an awesome time. Weather was bad ass and the green chiles were amazing.

    Went to San Diego this year and did enjoy the weather and the beach.

    If money wasnt an issue I would live west of Denver in the montains of Colorado.

    I'd probably either stay in California or move to Hawaii, although Manhattan might be up there.
