POLL: Where are we from?

[foetusized]

Born in Lincoln, Nebraska; moved to Vermillion, South Dakota when I was three; then on to NE Tennessee when I was ten. I've been stuck here ever since, with the exception of a couple years at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in Indiana. Most of my relatives are in Nebraska or Kansas -- Foe

 

[stereofisher]

Yeah I grew up only 2 mi from Toscani's

New Paltz huh? you must have eaten at Toscani's then. small world, Dino's mom was my godmother (Rachel).

Rememeber there used to be a TV shop in that spot. Jake Connelly sold Dumont TV's. My Dad bought one there, as did our neigbor. Good food came from Toscani's. Dad also bought an Eico tuner and amp from Jake. We were the first on Plains Rd to have FM. First on our second Dumont TV with FM,then the Eico. Then Jake went to the Merchant Marine and Toscani got the building. Probably mid 1960's and they have been there since! Great place to eat!

Springfield Il born and raised.
WooHooo Parker King :thmbsp: That's a name I haven't heard in a while. Turned me on to a lot of good equip also. When he was at Sundown One they had the first Phase Linear/Cerwin Vega setup I ever heard. I agree it was our loss when He left.

[Holst]

East of the Mississippi by less than one mile, I work west of the Mississippi by less than one mile. If Gull Dam breaks (we all say GULL DAMN) both will be under 40 feet of water about 20 miles south of here.

 

[gearhead]

As William Burroughs woulda said, "Space! And I'll be returning to space!"
I'm currently residing in central Illinois.
Close enough to Springfield to know Rich K. Even drank a Guinness in OK Electronics with him once! Seems he didn't want paid $ for something, said something like "buy me a beer."
I bought my Kenwood KA-7100 new from Appletree Stereo.
A distant cousin's wife worked there, also-Monica T.
Small world!

Economy sucks thanks to the current occupant in the White House! But its home.

Reminds me of what Bobcat Goldthwait said back in the 80s - "Blaming Ronald Reagan for losing your job is like blaming Ronald McDonald for getting a bad hamburger."

Anyway,
Born in Ditch-row-it (in Fronch it is pronounced DayTwat I think)

Raised from the age of 3 months in Pelkie, MI which is a town(?) of about 100 people in the Upper Peninsula. Actually outside town, near absolutely nothing.

Then on to Michigan Tech, still in the Upper Peninsula, two miles past the end of the earth according to the popular postcard.

Moved to the metro Detroit region in 1994 and currently living in Center Line which is a 1-square-mile separate city completely surrounded by Warren MI, a 36-square-mile city that encompasses an entire urban township.

 

[piece-it pete]

Born in Chicago, raised in Cleveland, spent some time in St Louis and Hartlepool, England. Currently still residing at the big Mistake on the Lake, eating perogies and hearing polkas while drinking Burning River Brew.

As far as politics go, I blame everything on Sonny Bono and Chester Arthur.

Go Buckeyes!

BTW toze, does that explain the current svelte physique? lol
