Fortuna, CA
Small northern California white trash town in the middle of Humboldt County. Population of approx. 70,000 and a diverse mix of old hippies, hobos, stoners, hicks from across the river, okies, escalade-driving pot growers, wanna-be-wealthy land owners, cowboys, and the random average school teacher. The "cool places" to meet include Safeway Parking Lot and the Tracks (also across the river.) In the summer the river and beach are the close by spots to be especially Miranda. Fortuna boasts the largest screen on the North Coast! and is also known to all around as "the friendly city". Stop by taco loco for a cheap burrito.

grebo
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
