Here in Conway - 9/13/2006
Conway has 3 colleges and lone of them will have the right atmosphere for you. Central Baptist-very conservative, Hendrix-private college, pricey, high standards, artsey/intellectual, and the University of Central Arkansas-a growing public university contantly increasing its standards with a proactive president.
You can only purchase liquor in restaurants with a membership but not long ago you could not purchase it at all. For culture look to the university and Reynolds Center, Snow Fine Arts, Baum Gallery. Restaurants here include Outback, Mike's (yummy), Cracker Barrel, Chili's. There is a new shopping mall, but the movie theatres are really old and in disrepair.

Don't spend the night in Conway, AR - 3/21/2006

It was 1 am on a weeknight and no-one but me was on the road. They arrested me for DWI-drugs becuase I had meds in my purse they said they couldn't identify. It was a sample of Seroquel...a type of antidepressant. They did a drug test, found the aforementioned medication (which was prescribed TO ME), and kept me in the drunk tank overnight. The tape of me was 40 minutes of me sitting in a chair. At court they brought in 5 officers who weren't present that night to testify against me. They also had on their docket over 40 others that had been "caught" not in that month but in that WEEK. Thats more than they average in the STATE in a week

Cold, greedy, heartless selfish people? - 3/4/2006
Is it just the people I have known all my life or is it the area? I was in this area of the country all my youth, and the people are true grit country types: suspicious of others--especially Yankees--because, after all, we are still fighting the Civil War down there; cold and heartless; greedy and grasping. The land is pretty and green, but the ambiance ain't there kids. I feel sorry for anyone raised there cause their view of humanity is surely
