05 Dec 04 - 06:23 PM (#1348238) Subject: RE: Where is everyone from? From: GUEST,Kindaloupehackenweez From somewhere over 2000 years ago. But more recent some 20 miles south of the mouth of the Mississippi river. Located in a Park call Itasca. In a small tourist town called Park Rapids. In a hole in the wall apartment in the low rent district. Perfect. Except no trees and grass to look at and no birdfeeders to fill or the multitudes of differant species of birds that one can attract depending on the type of foods used, all while comptemplateing phylosophy and logic. Be free and happy and make sure the world is good to you for we are of freewill and happy is what i choose for nothing else is an option. We are only limited to the boundries of our imagination. Kindaloupehackenweez....PEACE... |

20 Dec 05 - 05:07 PM (#1631653) Subject: RE: Where is everyone from? From: autolycus Born London,England, there till '74, mostly Norwich, Norfolk since. One set of grandparents from Odessa,Ukraine(before then in the Austro-Hungarian Empire - so 200 years ago the family name was Mozart, but it then drifted). Another grandparent from Lithuania, and 4th from Yorkshire. Been around a little, now rather hermit-like (with books,LPs, and older daughter). We're all migrants, cos that's what our primitive ancestors did for thousands of years. |

21 Dec 05 - 10:24 AM (#1632139) Subject: RE: Where is everyone from? From: PoppaGator I'm not sure where my home is these days. We own a vacant and temporarily uninhabitable home in one New Orleans neighborhood, recently began renting a small apartment in another higher-and-drier section New Orleans, and have not yet moved out of my childhood home in New Jersey. (At the moment, I'm in NJ and my wife is in NO.) It's very confusing. I'll wonder about a particular item (piece of clothing, book, scribbled note, etc.), remember that I left it on a table "back home," and then realize that the home in question is 1400 miles away... |
