I was born in Patuxent River, Maryland, AKA - a small, SMALL Navy base. It's claim to fame?

Orange California... I guess its not really that famous but it is the backdrop for a lot of movies because many of the homes in its Old Town District were built prior to 1920; whereas many other cities in the region demolished such houses in the 1960s, Orange decided to preserve them, so it gives it a small town look. Oh & theres lots of shopping
