Help!?

Hey - I know a lot of you are database type people, and some of you are proffesional type people. Well, I'm in a bind and need some help.

I'm trying to find twelve towns at random, from different parts of the US. And I'm trying to search by population. I need half of them to be under 5,000 and half of them to be more than 25,000. I have to find the high school/college of that town and the contact person.

Does anyone know how to go about doing this? I've tried the US Census Bureau but those fucktards didn't help. And neither did State websites.

*cries*

Anger!post

I hate this fucking place. HATE IT.

If you're new here - I'm talking about my school. I. Fucking. Hate. It. There's never any parking, people here are rude and bitchy, it's expensive as all hell, and I am here all the fucking time.

Hate. It.

And thus concludes this evening's anger!post.

EDIT:

*ahem*

I finished everything I need for my research study. Everything. All of it. Tomorrow, we go to the Instututional Review Board so they can slap their seal of approval on it. They could also point and laugh at me and tell me NO WAY, in which case I would have to go away. Far far away. But I'm being positive.

So. Yay.
