Where's Geico?

Slowly over the last ten years, I've been tiptoeing my way east while staying within the my Southern comfort zone. No, not the alcohol - the region affectionately known as the South. It's amazing how each has its own nuances. Texas with its "bigger than Texas" pride in itself and its fellow Texans. Now, I'm an official Masshole and I love it. The restaurants and cuisine are incredible and inspiring. Intellectual banter and liberalism is the norm rather than the exception. I'm finally home although I can't save 15% on my car insurance. The cost has more than doubled and Geico doesn't serve the Mass market. Effin lizard. Oh well, I guess it's the price we pay for "culture."
