There may not be many 10 gallon hats, but there a lot of hot men in cowboy hats here in Texas. Especially at my favorite Dallas club. RoundupSaloon (http://www.roundupsaloon.com) Texas wouldn't be Texas without cowboys!

I live in the dot South of him. The one where it can rain for 35 days straight.

Northeastern California, about an hour east of Sacramento. My area is a lot like West Virginia- hot, hilly, and mostly conservative with a heavy dash of liberalism (compared to surrounding areas, anyway). The main difference is that we don't have Southern accents- we just talk too fast.

Psst...there's this little thing called the "locameter."

What's bad about Oklahoma? Your housing isn't inflated through the roof, you don't have too many people and too many laws, and you don't have the governator.

The tree at Rockefeller Center is a must, then, as are the store windows up and down Fifth Avenue in the fifties. If you venture into Brooklyn, Dyker Heights is a maddening display of overzealous and sometimes a bit tasteless holiday decoration.

Where am I from... Let's see...

I was born in McAllen, Texas, not far from the Mexican border. I spent my formative years in Port Aransas, Texas, which gave me my accent (many people from the Northeast and Midwest). I moved around a lot, and finally ended up here in one of the many satellite towns of Houston. Sucky.

I'd rather be from New York or Chicago... Fuck, I wouldn't sound any different, but it'd be a lot more fun. :p

I'm from my mom.

A truly evil response to that would be:

But I just don't have the heart. :p

Oh. OK then. So.... I'm not your best friend. [sniff]. Don't worry... no, no, it's happened before. [sniff] Don't mind me. I'm just going to throw myself off a bridge.

I disagree. Björk is from Iceland, correct? The average lifetime of an icelander is about 84 years, right? I'm certain you are not all blonde.

One of these have to be correct.

I'm from Belgium...Does anyone from the U.S. or Australia knows my country?


Lets see i'm from the United States.


Belgium, used to belong to various other nations including the netherlands till the early 1800's when they achieved their independance. One citizen set up his own kingdom in the Congo, killed a shite load of people was an all around Asshole. Belgium took the Congo away from him, made it a colony, Belgium became a major front in 1914 when the Germans initiated the Schlieffen plan and invaded (and apparently Indiana Jones fought for the Belgium Army). Belgium was quite again until 1940 when they became a speedbump to the german war machine in the Blitzkrieg across France. blah blah blah, Antwerp became a major Allied Port in our drive across France and Belgium. Bastogne was where the 101st Airborne Division held off the Germans until rescued by Patton's 3rd Army. Ummm Belgium Joined NATO post war and with Frances withdrawl from NATO in the 60's, NATO headquarters was moved from Paris, to Brussels, with the NATO Commander himself in Scheip(oddly enough, my uncle is in the army and worked in Scheip, now i probably didn't spell it right)

Half of Belgium is Flemish, Half is French.

...company I worked for was called Newspaper Services of America. I used to love telling people I worked for NSA.
