I've been in all of these but San Juan. (which, BTW, is NOT part of America, how dirty are the streets in Pago Pago?)
Anyway, I'm hoping this Anchorage thing is a fluke. Or some travel nut thinks dirty snow on roadsides is...unsightly. When I was there, it was freakin' bee-you-tee-full. It was July 4th weekend, and the weather was great and the place was clean.
Hell, even the JAIL I was in one night was new and clean!! Well Technically that jail was in pre-Palin Wasilla.
All the rest are about right. Texas is odd though. You get 15 seconds outside downtown anywhere TX, and it's clean again. Personally I think this speaks more about the nasty MFers who LIVE in those big / inner cities than about how well you can remove trash. Here's why I say that.
(and don't be screaming that YOU live in a big city and YOU don't throw trash around...hurray for you...that ONLY leaves a few million @$$holes who DO throw trash in the streets...THOSE are the nasty MFers I was talking about)(relax)
But I digress, I've been to Singapore. In Singapore, you are required to pick up trash on your property or business site regardless of who threw it there. This includes street vendors. So everyone picks up blowing debris, all day, everyday. I've seen street vendors and walking citizens go OFF on tourists who 'miss' the trash barrels and don't self correct!
Perhaps NYC, Houston and tose others need to add some "Caning Regulations" to their "Littering Laws"? That's the rule in Singapore, and it works.

Number 2...WEINER FALL OUT

Number 1...PELOSI WANTS WEINER PROBE

OK, I'll bite.
How do you 'hang' a 70' sausage?! Or did they just stuff a 70' skin? Why am I asking so many technical questions?
Well, I like good, well made salami for one thing.
