09 Jul 05 - 05:44 PM (#1519160) Subject: RE: Where the heck is Big Mick? From: Azizi For those who aren't in the know, New Jersey's motto is {was?} "The Garden State". Hence, gnu's question whether residents of New Jersey are called 'Gardeners". I was born and raised in Atlantic City, home of the Miss America pagent, the Boardwalk, and numerous gambling casinos. Actually I don't think that folks living in New Jersey had a collective name for themselves. Maybe why Texans are known for their big egos and we have to put up with jokes about our state. To correct this sin of omission, I hereby nominate the snooty sounding name "New Jerseyite". That should help us build up our self-esteem... Hey, "New Jerseyite" is better than "New Jerseyian". Of course, what all this has to do with the whereabouts of Big Mick is little or nothing.. So where the heck is Big Mick? |

I do claim it as home. And I agree that there is lots to like about it..I have some good memories of growing up in South Jersey and some good memories about going to college in North Jersey. But I "moved when the spirit said move". * * This is a line from an African American spiritual that probably is in the excellent Permathread that WYSIWYG, Q, and others have worked on.

13 Jul 05 - 05:54 PM (#1521296) Subject: RE: Where the heck is Big Mick? From: Big Mick Well, I have spent the better part of the last two weeks, including the holiday weekend, up to my rather considerable arse in alligators and scabs. I did take a respite to fly home for a weekend of music making at a gathering on beautiful Diamond Lake in Michigan. No internet access there, and I sang and played until my fingers and throat screamed at me to stop. Then back to the grind again. The problem has been that I am away from my internet for large amounts of time. Willie, I do indeed live in your wife's hometown of Medford, NJ. Tell her I live right across the mill pond from Kirby's Mill and see it every morning out of my kitchen window. That is I see it every morning I am home. Lately it seems that I come and go in the dark. Some folks would call that a blessing. Yep, Art, I am indeed organizing. And trying to fit in a little time for the guitar and uilleann pipes. I am very near the point of rebelling and saying to hell with all these demands on my music time. Azizi, I love the folks in Jersey. They are polite, considerate drivers, and I have thoroughly enjoyed making new friends here. But they do talk funny ............ And for you Midwesterners, I want to warn you now. Never, I repeat, NEVER talk about drinking pop. They drink soda around these parts and will consider eliminating any cretin from the gene pool that doesn't understand that. Did I mention that they talk funny around here? |
