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...

In a hole in the wall apartment in the low rent district. Perfect.

By all means, please, any of you, send Jeff aka Pene Azul, your location to be added to the listing.

Yeah, so now we know where some folks are from, but I'm still curious about the overall numbers for where members are located. For example: Are there more members east or west of the Atlantic? (Austrialians might not fit into either category -- maybe "Old World" vs "New" would work better.)

I know there are plenty of members throughout the US and Canada, and enough in the UK that it would make sense to maintain separate counts for England, Scotland and Wales. Loads of Irish, but perhaps not so many living in Ireland than wishing they did, or at any rate visiting. At least one in Iceland, a few other Scandinavians. What else?

Even if some volunteer wre willing to sort through the data, does information even exist on the home locale of each member? As I recall, membership reistration req

I'll premise this by saying I'm still buzzing from downing (quite quickly) 2 delicious Rob Roys of a Friday evening, so be forewarned, I am a little off the wall and not myself...

I am from planet earth...but have been seen in Central New York--primarily the "Salt City"...have also ventured to southern points in the state as well...ie Binghamton (known to some as 5th-Hampton)...and Westchester County...most recently I've been experiencing The Bay area of California and now The San Fernando Valley region...that is when I am not mentally drifting to other places in the world...such as the UK and Ireland.

And I think you all can tell neither my day nor evening job is comedienne.

Hey there catspaw49. I have a sister in Mayretta. I can see the mountain from the end of my street, and my office is in Snailville. Small world isn't it? And the internet has reduced it to a 17" monitor in my case.

Minneapolis (The little apple) Minnesota is famous for a healthy mosquito crop, loons, and now for our leader. We were gone on tour, and when we came back we had a wrestler for a governor. Go figure...

Say picker....I spent a few years in Hotlanta, met and married my wife Karen there. We got married in the morning on the Square in "Mayretta" and after a brunch reception, we took all the "out of towners" to Stone Mountain. Still have a real close friend in "Snailvul."

This is my second time on the site and I have noticed a lot of regulars and I am just curious as to what parts of the world everyone is from? I am from Stone Mountain Ga. USA. A suburb of Atlanta. Also this is one of the friendliest sites I have participate in. Any volunteers?
