New Providence High School

A high school in central/northern New Jersey that is home to approximately 650 students. The majority of the high school is white with a few minorities somewhere...if you can find them. The kids who go here, for the most part, suck; there are exceptions though. Some of the school are over achievers, some under, some in the middle. It is home to basically every sterotype possible and the students don't let those different from them forget it. On the weekend most students assume the hobbies of getting drunk and/or high, because there is really nothing else to do. The cops love nothing more than catching these kids do it. Chances are you will find that kid you were looking for in town doing something stupid. Dont go here.

New Providence High school Person 2: "I dont know..probably going to the woods to drink than go into town and act stupid.
New Providence High school Person 1: "Same"

New Providence

A small town in north jersey right outside of New York City. It is home to the nicest people on the east coast. Beautiful houses, nice cars, and great schools are what you'll find here. All moms walk their kids to school in the morning and pick them up in their SUV's in the afternoon only to rush them off to soccer practice, ballet class or flute lessons. Most of the kids are ridiculously smart and talented in pretty much everything so they go to great schools and grow up to make tons of money in New York City just like their parents. The dads all walk home together from the train station after work to find their perfect families waiting and dinner, made by their house-keeper, on the table. On the weekends, the kids don't really throw killer parties because they know their parents will find out because everyone is in each other's business. Football games are attended every weekend and church at the Presbyterian Church at New Providence is a must on Sunday morning. Pretty much an adorable town filled with rich, but nice people who have perfect lives. Kind of like a mini version of Desperate Housewives without the bitchiness.

"Hey are you moving?"

"Yeah, I'm going to New providence so my kids can be smart and be nice people."

The Boston-Providence Theory

The Boston-Providence Theory states that there is nothing in Rhode Island that is better than anything in Massachusetts. Rhode Island was created in 1765 when Jonathan Williams, a prominent cartographer, sneezed while drawing Massachusetts. The most persuading data to back up the Boston-Providence Theory is as follows:

1. Boston > Providence. Boston has better people, bars, beer, accents, businesses, neighborhoods, rivers and schools.
2. Harvard > Brown. Brown is the illegitimate step-child of the Ivy League. Harvard is the best college in the country.
3. Cape Cod > Newport. Newport is tiny and as aside from a very nice section near the water, is an appalling ghetto. Cape Cod's gorgeous beaches and dunes are world famous.
4. Whitey Bulger > Buddy Cianci. Buddy Cianci got caught. Whitey's adventures spawned an Academy Award winning film.
5. Roxbury > Pawtucket. Because if we're talking ghettos, Roxbury will fuck you up.
6. Dunkin' Donuts > Dell's. Dell's is a lemonade stand on steroids. Dunkin' Donuts is a purveyor of the finest coffee in New England.
7. Red Sox > Providence Bruins. Have you even heard of the Providence Bruins? Their big brother plays in...Boston. The Red Sox are a New England institution
8. Children's > Hasbro. When your kid's got an earache, you go to Hasbro. He comes home with the flu. When your kid has cancer, you go to Children's. He comes home healthy.
9. Sam Adams > Narragansett Brewery. Sam Adams is an internationally acclaimed, ass-kicking beer. Narragansett beer is simply Narragansett Bay sludge colored to look like beer.

Guy 1: I don't really feel safe living in Providence.
Guy 2: Well according to the Boston-Providence Theory you abandon that hell-hole and move to paradise.
Guy 1: Good call. What part of Boston should I move to?

"After seeing the light, Max found the Red Sox, left Pawtucket and settled in Back Bay."
