It would be interesting to know how many people on this great board come from each state or provence or where ever.I would guess that NY,NJ,and Ma have the most.Since Canada is so small, all Provences could be lumped together.Likewise WV and VA are one state.States with North Or South could be lumped together or with the second name.Of course the rest of the world is all one place except SXM every vote from there counts as 5or10.<br>Augie<br><br><P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by Administrator on 11/28/00 01:48 PM.</EM></FONT></P>

[color:blue]Hey Augie<br>I'll get it started...since I'd love to know too!<br>I grew up in CT...My husband Bob grew up in MA (the last place we lived was MA)butbrush]<big> [color:6495ed] HOME is SXM </font face=brush></big> </font color=6495ed>& has been for 7 1/2 yrs.</font color=blue><br><br><br>

I tried to be creative but I think it's too late tonight!...It's been a long day ... So just in case you happen to look up the town "butbrush" in MA to see where it is...It doesn't exist...I just screwed up typing!!!!! I think I should get 10 points[img]/images/icons/thumbsup.gif[/img] just for that! I'd better quit while I'm ahead![img]/images/icons/laugh.gif[/img] <br><br>

Boston South Shore <br><br>

Southwest suburbs of Chicago,IL<br><br>

Northern suburb of Indianapolis<br><br>

Grew up in Jersey, now its Fort Lauderdale.<br><br><br>

Augie--Beg to differ with you, my man!! We live in Virginia, and believe me, there ain't no way that we claim West Virginia!!!! And, since we own this BB, Virginia and West Virginia will be separate states, thank you very much!!!!!! Carol<br><br>

East central Illinois here.<br><br>Dan<br><br>

About 60 miles north of NYC<br><br>

North Western New Jersey (no not near the turnpike<br><br>

Northwest suburbs of Chicago<br>Looks like Illinois is pretty well-represented on this board, too!<br><br>

Morrison, Colorado just SW of Denver<br><br>

Carol,It's about time someone said something about the State thing.The reason I did the State jokes is; Friends from West Virginia told us that when telling someone where they were from,the response was" Oh, I was in Richmond once"<br>Have a great evening,<br>Augie<br><br>

Benicia, California<br>(Pronounced ben-knee-sha)<br>Half way 'tween SF and Sacramento on the California Delta...<br><br>[color:blue]Bob!</font color=blue><br>

We're from North Carolina....and that's quite different from South Carolina! And we're probably the only<br>North Carolinians on this board!<br><br>

Jersey Girl<br><br>

Born in West (by God) Virginia. No true Mountaineer would allow himself to be referred to as a Virginian either. Live in Delaware, another state that gets no respect. Once, after telling someone I was from Delaware, I got the response "Isn't that somewhere in Ohio?"<br><br>

Guess I'll get my two cents in here, too.<br>Went through school on Long Island, NY. <br>Now, Southern Delaware..... we get no respect!!<br><br>Lorrie<br><br>

Riverhead, East End of Long Island, NY!!!!!<br><br>

Connecticut (Meriden, right in the middle of the state).<br><br>I'm from New Hampshire originally -- Sandy was born in Ohio but moved to CT when he was quite young.<br><br>I really got a chuckle out of lumping Virginia and West Virginia together. That's like grouping Maine and Connecticut together because they're both in New England.<br><br>NOT! <br><br><br>peaceful_one@hotmail.com

Milwaukee, Wisconsin<br><br>You can feel free to lump us together with all the folks from EastConsin. Just don't refer to us as a northern suburb of Chicago, please.<br><br><br><br><br>

Ontario, Canada - and I wouldn't exactly call Canada small, geographically speaking of course! <br>Don & Linda<br><br>

Another vote for Illinois here! western "sheecawgo" burbs. We'd have more than any other state, IMHO, if we were lucky enough to have direct flights to SXM and had other reasonable options besides AA!!!! Right Jamie? <br><br>

ok, here we go:<br>i've lived in Germany, Texas, California, Turkey, Austria and now live in a western suburb of Chicago with Vlasta, my wife, who has also lived in the Czech Republic, Austria and Washington state. <br>as of Jan 2004 we'll be living the first 6 months of every year in our condo on SXM. <br>enjoy, <br><br>[color:red]Ray Mann</font color=red><br>Ray's SXM Web Site

We don't know where we are from any more. Both of us were born in NC, but have lived in AL, SC, GA, FL (Miami & Orlando), Myrtle Bch, San Antonio, NJ and NY. I think we are lost, but seem to be home when in SXM. Can't wait till April.<br><br>

Salt Lake City, Utah - home of the greatest snow on earth! Which is why we escape every year in March to St Martin - without fail.<br><br>MB

Add another one for Illinois, from Highland Park, one of those suburbs north of Chicago! December will find us on SXM! Seventh year<br><br>

We're from Newark (pron. "New Ark"), [color:blue]Delaware</font color=blue>! <br><br>[color:blue]Lou</font color=blue>
