Long Beach, Rhode Island .

- - - -

Welcome to Long Beach, Rhode Island, the biggest little town you’ve never heard of. We are located east of the captial, smack dab in the middle but still right on the coast. Needless to say, our atmosphere consists of hot days and even hotter nights. Summers are nothing short of a scorcher, but naturally we have more than the weather to thank for that. If you’re like most of America and think that those New York socialites have it all, then you definitely have never entered our world before. Thank God I’m here; what would you do without me to educate you? Rhode Island is quickly becoming the new place to be. Puh-lease. Like we don’t have anything more interesting than that damn mouse. We have everything the Northeast has—beautiful beaches and scenery, gorgeous multimillion dollar homes, fabulous designer shopping—sometimes the horribly cold weather that puts a damper on your social life, but that doesn't keep up down for long. It’s basically a party all year round, and if you don’t find that appealing then there is something beyond wrong with you.

Here in Long Beach—known as either LB to those “in the know”—we are even more exclusive than we are luxe. Anyone who’s anyone lives here, and if we don’t like you, you better watch your back because the right words could cut you to shreds faster than you can possibly imagine. If you’re in, you’re in. If you’re out, you’re way out. Simple as that. The old-school businessmen trade stock options on the squash courts of Rolling Hills Yacht & Country Club while not-so-secretly mocking the “new money” and their over-the-top taste—if you can even call it that. Housewives gossip during bi-weekly blowouts at Jean-Luc, taking intense delight in maliciously dissecting, and consequently dissing, their competition. And if you think the adults are bad, just wait until you see their children. There’s just one question left:

Are you in?
