    Mississippi isn't ALL bad....

    Ya'll may have already seen this, but Cleveland, MS is #2 on the list....I did my graduate work at Delta State Univ., and even taught some biology labs there for a couple of years, back in the early '70s....very nice town.

    I see #1 has a house full of ghosts....our resident ghost-whisperer oughta like that place.

    BTW, that Po'Monkey Lounge is one of the last-surviving sho'nuf juke joints....it's out in the middle of a cotton field on a dirt road outside of Merigold, MS....owned by an old black guy....looks exactly like that pic....never been inside, but have ridden by it numerous times....on Thur. and Fri nights, you can't find a parking spot....always a live blues band, playing there....it's jam-packed with college kids, and even older folks who like the blues.
