Neah, I just checked in to see why everyone wasn’t still talking about my orb filters. I guess if everyone has finished telling me how great they are I should get back to forging.

And I'm already regretting I wrote it... Mental note to self: On non-FF topics, don't ever post anything other than , ever!

Don't feel that way. Wait, I felt that way in an on topic thread.

Well I am not a fan of Nebraska and less of a fan of Iowa... besides I am not from here... LOL... I've lived all over the U.S. and am from the west coast. We moved up here 8 years ago and bought a house. (Husbands job moved us here). We moved up from Texas... I'm not from Texas either however my father is. Iowa doesn't even come close to Washington state... the state you are in is... (((YOUZA)))). Unless of course you live in Rainer's future lahare' (sp?) path... then... not so good...

I left Nebraska after my son died and came here. I grew up mainly in Germany and NJ. Been to 39 of the states, bothe ends of Canada, and of course all over germany. Living in one place feels very strange.

I have to ask is everyone here American surely I'm not the only foreigner

Similar story here but I have a self rule that I don't travel out of the states... (U.S. Virgin Islands (technicallity)... okay... LOL... exceptions have to be made and I luv it so much there I thought about staying for a few years as a passing thought while on vacation when I was in my 20's)

Seriously ... though.. I've lived all over the U.S. so when people ask where I am from I usually say... 'U.S.' and leave it at that because it takes too long to explain. LOL

You moved to a great state~ Good choice~ Have to ask you... Do you speak German? Because I don't and ... was wondering... I know you are not into music... but... I have an Internation Love and Loss playlist I need to add more German songs too and... it's hard to get interprations... I don't want to ask my Mom because of her health (long story another time)...

Hi Carl~

Hi Kraellin~

dilla, the proper response is 'yes, dear' or 'in a minute, dear' or something similarly non-descript (*ducks and follows ronviers out of the room*)

LOL... well you guys are all over this thread when Ahisma and myself are sharing our female bit's stories... then the conversation turns to other things and you men all duck out... ah ha... yep... I see...

LOL

And not one of you guys commented on the Aircrane... Ahisma is the only one that did... LOL

Maybe growing up with 5 brothers and a Dad who was a cop turned me out a little different, don't know

LOL

Well I grew up with two brothers, no sisters,,, an Ex Vietnam vet with a purple heart medal for a Dad... and a 72 foot long helicopter called an Aircrane as the best toy I ever had.

@Carl I am, where are you from, Carl?

What country are you in Foxxee?

I'm an Aussie and I'm just surprised for a world wide program everyone on the forum seemed to be from one place [ apart from vlad & co ] come on hands up anyone who isn't

I was from Germany.

Well, since Carl was asking about all of us 'Americans' and he was wondering if he was the only foreigner... oh wait, I just now figured it out. My reply made no sense at all did it

I was raised in Oregon, moved to southern California, then to Kansas, then to Arizona, and now I'm back in S. Cal again (not by choice)... so here I be stuck

Same here ahimsa - illness ended my career several years ago and now I am stuck here.

I was just finishing up on a double degree (math and science) when my old life ended. Now I only go out to the doctor, lab, and hospital and it takes my body nearly a week to recover from the pain. Hans is lucky, the doctors come to your home there.

I can't keep up either, LOL. I'll be heading over to FF soon to work on a filter. Although it would be the first time I've told a man he has a sexy accent then he runs out of the room... LOL. Are you afraid of me Carl... haha~ That's okay... I don't scare Steve and Ron,,, or Ron and Steve...

Paul is my husband, Hans is my best internet friend. He and I have been housebound because of our health for about the same number of years. I taught him how to use PSP and Bryce. We keep each other company when our spouses are at work. Our real life friends left us one by one when we stopped being able to go places and do things with them.

I've been thinking of getting myself one of those... (((Revelations would not like it though)))

Hi Ron~

Nebraska!? I thought you were in San Fransisco? How did I come up with that?

Hi Ron~ Read the thread... I was born in San Francisco... it's was home base for me growing up since we moved so much and my Grandparents lived there. ((I'd always come back to home base)). When Dad was in Nam I lived with my Grandparents.... Grandma died a few years ago... and the house I was brought home from the hospital to was sold... Born at the Presidio of San Francisco... now a National Park and the base hospital torn down. It's actually very rare to find someone born on the Presidio. Whenever I go back to the city I am welcomed by the locals... LOL. In fact my whole family has very strong ties to the city... long story perhaps better for email or chat... ((seriously read this thread if you want to know more... it's either in this thread or my Abalone thred))((think the info is in this thread... I could be wrong))

Yes I am in Nebraska... I have lived on both coasts... many of the southern states and now the heartland... LOL...

Hi Ahsima~

I need to go to bed. See you all later!

Nite Ashima~ Steve is all man I'm assuming... ((sweet dreams))

Quote
I was so jealous of you living in San Fransisco - I would love it there -

Jealous... LOL... everyone is always jealous of me... never figured that one out... maybe it is my ties to the city... I don't know... I think it's because I apply myself to whatever I do... and put lots of elbow grease, sweat and thought into what I'm doing... I don't know... I'll let you know when I figure it out one day. But yes I've caught jealousy from others all my life.

Oklahoma is full and rich with Cherokee history... in fact I see you mentioned the word 'redneck' earlier... you know that word stems from the Cherokee's mixing into the whiter race... hence the term 'Redneck'. Texas also has quite a few Cherokee/White mixes... hence the term 'Redneck' for Texas... You'd have to know Cherokee history to understand how and why this happened... too long for a post.. the history is wonderful though if you feel like reading up on it.

San Francisco.. yes it was nice living there. City of my birth... city of my heart... when my older brother got out of the service he drove a cab in the city for years... LOL... I have family in Petaluma right now (across the bridge) and my uncle goes to the city every year to help out with camp royaneh (boy scouts).

When you drive across the bridge away from the city you'll see a large grove of trees... my uncle helped plant those with one of his city projects.

My uncle and big brother were helping in the aftermath of the quake in 89~ ... My Grandma was alive then and our family was in a panic because we could not reach her or any family in the city... she and her house were fine though... housing is expensive in the area... they bought the house in 69 for 70,000... when she died it sold for 330,000.00... Too exspensive to live there now. It was always nice going back to the city and living with Grandma... Grandpa passed away in 72.. so she was alone in the city when we were not living with her... she liked it. LOL And so did we.

Anyway,,, grandma and her house survied the quake without a scratch. And she was near the cliff's too... I used to climb the chain link fence and climb part way down the cliff's to sit as a child.. I loved the view... also remember walking to the bus stop and having trouble seeing my feet with the fog layer.. LOL. Playing on the beach... playing at the fun house (since torn down)... and as an adult returning to the city and visitng wtih Grandma.

Maybe I will take some photos of photos for you and put a few up...

Well I better jump out of these threads now... have filters to make a yard to take care of... BBL

I miss Oregon... Erickson Aircrane's main headquarters in in Central Point Ore,,, not too far from Medford. And the coast is amazing... Love Gold Beach... So do you think the Cascadia fault line will burst in our life time?
