I live in Riverdale, in New York (a nice suburb 15 minutes north of Manhattan). I'm a Chemical Engineer by major. Graduated from Columbia University in 2001, just turned 27 two weeks ago.
Even if you don't know where anyone else is, you can technically use an IP locator to find them --
Curtis lives in Joisey.
Laura lives in Maryland.
Beth lives in Kansas.
"Otto" lives in Ottawa (hence the 'ott' part of the IP).
ulk_klu lives in Texas.
"mcshi" lives in Illinois.
MrsK lives in California.
Teddy lives in Hawaii.
Tom is currently somewhere near Philly. :-)
Sorry if anyone didn't want their state to be outed, but the info is easily viewable ;-) |

I may have gotten one or two of those wrong... I can be fooled via the use of proxy servers. :) |

I live in Leavenworth, Kansas. I'm 53, have 2 horses, 8 cats, 2 dogs and a son in college and a wonderful husband who lets me have all those critters.
I am a consultant for a software company that creates software for hospitals and doctors. I plan and implement enterprise system management solutions for those hospitals - very geeky stuff! I am pretty sure I'm the oldest woman doing this anywhere - I travel all over the USA and sometimes outside of the USA - last year I went to the UK 3 times! It was fun.
I graduated from Rockhurst University, a small Jesuit college in Kansas City, MO in 1975.
That's probably more than anyone really wanted to know! :) |

Hi everyone! It's interesting to get to know the people behind the nicknames. I live in Delaware, have been married for 41 years to my high school sweetheart, have 2 daughters and 7 grandchildren. As for me if you've ever seen ''It's a Wonderful Life'' with James Stewart, you'll understand what I do. I'm the CEO of a Building & Loan. Hence, my nickname... I love to cross stitch, quilt and play word games. Started playing Scribble many years ago and enjoy it very much. Thanks Tom! |

Yes, I've been curious, too. Thanks, Alpha. Quite fascinating reading these!
The basics? I can manage that. :) Mid 30's, married, stay-home mom of 2 - one in high school, one about to start (homeschool) preschool. We currently live in San Diego, CA, but are moving to outer-Philadelphia, PA in the fall.
Have loved to read all my life, and still do with crime & political thrillers being the focus these days. I follow the news with a passion, and love war movies. Now, how to NOT make this sound like a singles ad? ;-P

Well yes I'm in New Zealand always a day ahead as well and often you've in the night & I'm in the middle of day. I'm in the Upper North Island beyond the Bombay Hills if you are below that area - a JAFA = Just Another Fabulous Aucklander [however other people put something different in the F word]
There is 3/4 of the entire populace living in this region which is surrounded by 2 oceans [the pacific & indian] along with 21 extinct volcanoes. A melting pot of ethnic cultures with the biggest Polynesian population in the world.
I'm out in the Waitakere area, Auckland has drifted into other areas as more and more people come to live/work/study here.
I'm well over the age of consent but still too young to retire.
Next year I'm going to Auckland University as a full time but mature student as I have no formal educational qualifications and now that my health issues are somewhat more controlled. I've got the body fit and thinner etc I think it's time for a mental workout.
I'm going to start with a Bachelor of Arts and if I can cope in the first year I may well do a conjoint degree with Computer Science. I don't have say what my major will be but at present I'm favouring Philosophy & Logic/Computation. But we shall see :-)
I'm not married however I was for over 20yrs so I'm not innocent :-)
My hobbies are also a small business in that I'm involved in the Textile and Fibre [fiber] arts world. But mainly I just bum around & about :-)
