Where do you live? That's a complicated question for a California town with no street addresses

quote: $13,000 medication.

Is that weekly?

It is worth doing some basic checks on a place before moving to it, to see if you would fit in. We don't have cell reception. We don't have street names or house numbers. We worship Satan. Everyday stuff like that.

Carmel-By-The-Sea: We have no street addresses

Japan: Hold my beer

No addresses?

It's just like Japan, then.

The banchi/chome system doesn't work.

So is this the inspiration for U2's "Where the Streets Have No Names"?

Kinda sorta reminds me of people relocating to Boulder, Colorado. They want to live up in the mountains but complain about deer eating their flowers and mountain lions roaming around eying their pets for a snack. On one hand, they want to live out in nature. On the other hand, they don't appreciate nature nearby.

But unlike the houses in Carmel-By-The-Sea, those days may soon be numbered.

I'm guessing the writer meant Storybrooke. The fictitious town in Once Upon A Time.

You got to.have an address on a warrant

So is this the inspiration for U2's "Where the Streets Have No Names"?

Nope. His inspiration for that song is the high desert of California where the north-south streets and roads have numbers and the east-west streets and roads have letters, but no names. Example, 40th St East and Avenue K is a real intersection in Lancaster CA. It's the part of California where Joshua Trees dominate the landscape.

No street numbering? Japan doesn’t even have street names!

No street numbering? Japan doesn’t even have street names

Last week, an Amazon delivery guy saw me watering my plants outside and asked my address, which was posted on a large ornate sign near the front door, right above our heads that he somehow missed. I told him the number. He handed me the package and asked if this other package was mine. It had my next- door neighbor's address on it. I wonder if even street names would have helped him?

After a few years of living with street names and numbers, they will have forgotten what all the fuss was about.

It is a beautiful area. That is more important than whether one has an address or not.

It looks like a lovely place to live or visit, though the top photo reminds me of Silent Hill.

What a terribly queer affair. Wouldn’t be suitable for elderly or disabled though with that post lark would it.
