As a friend of mine said on a while back:

    My father, when I struck out into the Wide World on my own, pulled
    me aside and gave me one and only one piece of advice. "Son, never
    live west of where you work. Everything else, you can affect, but
    the sun doesn't care about you."

    Did I listen? Noooooooooooo....
