Where does everybody hail from?

Currently in Houston, Texas.

(Waving at PamO - I'm just inside the loop in the SW corner...)

Born in Alabama, grew up in Louisiana, have also lived in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Oregon, Tennessee, Ohio, Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, North Carolina. Used to take jobs wherever I could find them, but I seem to have grown some roots here.

Why can't I vote twice ?

born in England, lived in Gibraltar, Cornwall, Norfolk/Suffolk, Moray in the north of Scotland and Malta - then England again. Most of my youth by the coast and sadly now 100 miles from it

when and where did you live in Cornwall? I lived in between Newquay and Padstow for quite a few years. I absolutely love Cornwall.

What's not to love? I used to go on surfing trips to Newquay...what a wonderful place.

Vivien--

Lived in St. Ives--St. Anna Cottage, Back Road West--in 1971-72. Loved Cornwall where even the English were foreigners.

Hardcore Gothenburg, sweden, now living in Germany, working in an italian restaurant that has a pakistani cook. How's that for international?

Using a loud hailer up here in Tranna.



(aka Toronto, Ontario, Canada)

when i lived there if you came from 'up country' - meaning further north in Cornwall - you were a foreigner for that! lovely people though and beautiful coastline

I will never reveal my location or where I'm from. That information is strictly confidential.

How was Montreal, Joe?
Gonna go back to the thread and give us an update?

Born and raised in Winterlingen, Germany, now living in Balingen, Germany with a Swedish guy who works in an Italian restaurant with a Pakistani cook... ;-)

No sooner said than done

Was born in Omaha, lived in Wiesbaden, Caribou, Neiderkirchen, Kaiserslautern, Rome, and now the Emerald City.

Born in WI, moved to TX at 18. Moved To CO at 21, moved back to TX at 22. Moved back to WI at 26.

What a Long Strange Trip it's been

Born and raised in Dundee Illinois (a far northwest suburb of Chicago), small stints in Carbondale and Bloomington Illinois for school. Ended up in...you guessed it Milwaukee WI.

Not sure where to go next...anyone have any ideas?

Born and raised in Flo-ree-duh. Spent my young adulthood in Virginia and raising my kids in a god-forsaken place in PA. We'll be on the move again in a couple of years.

Born and Raised in East Boston MA
College in Newton NJ
Taught in Gloucester MA & Marrerro LA
More schooling in Columbus OH
Back to the Boston area and still here

From west Philadelphia born and raised
On a playground is where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out maxin', relaxin' out cool
Shootin' a couple of b-ball right outside the school

When a couple of guys who were up to no good
Started makin' trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
She said: "You're moving with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air"

I whistled for a cab and when it came near
Licence plate said fresh and had a dice in the mirror
I thought to myself that this cab was rare
But I said "Nah, forget it. Yo homes to Bel-Air"

I pulled up to a house about seven or eight
And I yelled to the cabby "Yo homes smell you later"
Looked at my kingdom I was finally there
To settle my throne as the Prince of Bel-Air

Dang Joe FX! My brother knows all the words to that song, and is in Philly now working on a PhD in linguistics.
