    About the only thing of interest in my town was the fact that former president Bill Clinton graduated from high school here. Other than that, there's nothing special at all about this crap hole.

    Edit: @ Heretic below: Yep Hot Springs, Arkansas.

    Canadian city, and the capital of the province of Manitoba. Located in Western Canada, Winnipeg plays a prominent role in transportation, finance, manufacturing, agriculture and education. It is known as the Gateway to the West.

    The city is located near the geographic centre of North America. It lies in a flood plain at the confluence of the Red and Assiniboine rivers and started around the point now commonly known as The Forks. It is protected from flooding by the Red River Floodway. Winnipeg is the province's largest city with a population of 619,544 people (2001 Canadian Census). The Winnipeg Census Metropolitan Area (which includes Winnipeg and surrounding rural municipalities has a population of 706,900 (Statistics Canada, July 1, 2005 estimate).

    The climate in Winnipeg is very extreme; overall, it is one of the coldest large cities in the world, with temperatures averaging below freezing from mid-November through much of March (and most nights below −24 °C (-11.2 °F) in mid-winter), although from May to September temperatures often reach 30 °C (86 °F) and sometimes exceed 35 °C (95 °F). The city receives more precipitation in the forms of both rain and snow than other Prairie cities, but the weather is characterized year-round by an abundance of sunshine.

    Sir William Stephenson (aka Intrepid), the spy, and man on whom the character of James Bond is based was born here. Also Winnie-the-Pooh or the Winnipeg Bear has named after the city

    Sävedalen, aka Savedalen, is a shitty town on the outskirts of Gothenburg. Nothing cool ever happened here except that this is where Terra was born, raised and hopefully not will die. We used to have horses but when they all died of old age, cars replaced them.

    There is also a band named after Sävedalen which is called Savedale, the members of that band have played together three times and pretty much suck. Due to pure coincidence, Terra actually happens to be a member of that band. Who would have thought?

    Terra later went on to create another band called... *post turns into random banter about Terra's ownage*

    I doubt there're terribly many internationally curious things over here.

    The only thing might be the Air Guitar World Championships. It's a 10 years old event, and participants come from all over the world.
