Dutchess County - New York
Whenever I see that name, I automatically associate it with Buford Pusser. I am assuming you are in the McNairy County located in Tennessee? Heck, that might be the only McNairy County in the country.
BTW, I am in Owsley County. That means there are only 4.441 other people besides me living here! The entire population of my county wouldn't qualify as a small town in most places, but I like it here, largely because it has such a small population.
Yeah, this was set up at least 5-6 years ago. The Pennyrile Parkway from Henderson to the junction with the Western KY parkway was designated as the future I-69 corridor quite a few years ago, along with the remainder of the WKY parkway west of the Pennyrile to its terminus at I-24, and the Purchase Parkway from I-24 to the KY/TN state line. I-69 in KY is basically done except to build the approach to a future bridge and the bridge itself across the Ohio River.Curious, how did the former parkways in western KY wind up becoming interstates: I-165/I-169/I-69? I just started noticing those designations in the last couple of years. Are the roads upgraded? Thanks.

The best Mexican restaurant in Kentucky is like being the best gas station sushi in Arizona.Home of the best Mexican restaurant in the state (Garcia’s). If you ever want to grab a beer and a taco let me know
You've actually eaten in every Mexican restaurant in the state? You're saying that the good people from Mexico can't come to Kentucky and establish a great eatery? Most Mexican restaurants in Louisville are owned and operated by Mexicans. Some more authentic than others but to make that statement is foolish.The best Mexican restaurant in Kentucky is like being the best gas station sushi in Arizona.
I spent half my life out West and even the "Mexican" owned restaurants in KY put that nasty white cheese all over everything and put hamburger in Chile Rellenos. Any hole in the wall fast food burrito San Diego is 100x better than anything in this State as far as Mexican food goes. Look, every state has its advantages and disadvantages...

You obviously haven't given the better Mexican restaurants in this state a try. Have you ever dined in one in Louisville? Many are authentic and damn good.I spent half my life out West and even the "Mexican" owned restaurants in KY put that nasty white cheese all over everything and put hamburger in Chile Rellenos.

Tourist traps for those with the palate of stunted ground squirrels. I've eaten at the best in Louisville and Lexington for dinner and breakfast specialties. We talk with the owners and they all say that's the way they have to serve the food here in Kentucky to appeal to the masses and also make a profit. Restaurants here are a tough business.You obviously haven't given the better Mexican restaurants in this state a try. Have you ever dined in one in Louisville? Many are authentic and damn good.
So much for civil conversation. Why the anger?Tourist traps for those with the palate of stunted ground squirrels.

Ever been to a nickel and dime Roberto's in San Diego for a burrito? How about a Rubio's Fish Tacos that originated in San Felipe Mexico? How about a hot dog from a street vendor in Tijuana? Those are fast food restaurants in Southern Cal/Mexico and I guarantee you they're both better than any $$$$ Mexican joint in Kentucky.
Whenever we go try a new one and I see flour tortillas for their fish tacos or hamburger in anything I just want to leave. Don't even get me started on that godawful white cheese they pour all over everything.
The closest thing you can do in Kentucky is to go to one of those small Mexican stores that also serve food. It's usually a 50/50 shot but it's the best I've found in this state.

Good God. Done.Anger and contempt are not the same thing.
Despite being 37th in area among US states, Kentucky ranks fourth in counties, with 120.
I live in Pulaski and have for most of my life, but I've also lived in Madison and Fayette. I know a lot of people who despise central Kentucky, but I love it aside from the severe humidity in the summer.
My wife is the same way, but from Missouri. There are plenty of small towns there that have high schools with ~150 students.
The majority of our towns do not have schools named after them any more, just counties. People associate where you live with the high school sports team.
When I was in 7th grade(1980) it was required that you take Kentucky History. We had to memorize all 120 counties and place them on a map.

Your take on ground beef is spot on but there’s some 100% legit authentic Mexican taquerias on Preston in Louisville. I was stationed in Cali and have been to San Diego many times. Stationed at Ft. Bliss in El Paso Texas. Have eaten at hole in the walls in Mexico. Sons wife is Mexican. From Mexico. Her family is coming over to the house to have a “carne asada fiesta” today. Just saying you need to stop at one of the 20 Mexican joints in a 3 mile stretch on Preston.A real burrito has shredded beef as there should never be an ounce of hamburger in a Mexican restaurant. Chile Rellenos are stuffed with cheese not hamburger. Fish tacos (and all good tacos for that matter) are served on corn tortillas never flour tortillas. And the flavor of your food stands on its own you don't cover it all up with some watered down swill cheese mess.

Horrendous mistake. I will put the Tijuana hotdogs from the little white carts up against the finest in New York City any day all day. Pure crack. The best hotdogs on earth by a mile even if it is cat.I was tempted in Tijuana to get a street vendor delicacy, but was told it might be a cat.
Ate awesome Mexican food in the Barrio in Phoenix, though.
