I'm not bald, and I wish I lived in a brick house, but you got it.
Thanks, except for the traffic on the way back through Tennessee and Kentucky (8 hrs. between them, only a little less than two for Indiana) it was a great trip to the Smokies. Nope, as you can see, Indianapolis.

This has been a lot of fun.

Indianapolis...Wow, was I off track. The Smokies are beautiful, pristine, a marvel.

Good job bmanbdaman...A big congrats !! :D

Btw...I have a lot of kinfolk in Indiana. Indianapolis, Merrillvile, Washingon, Anderson and my Father was born in Bicknell.

Well, I live in a small(ish) town with a dark past. Our Sherrif's office still has evidence on ice from a convicted serial killer. Probably not the best advertisement, but I am trying to make it a little challenging.

Guess where I live.

Frankfort, Philadelphia ?

A serial killer from Frankfort?
I have to go look through my files.

Ooops...I'm wrong. It's Frankford, PA. Glad you're around tinyE to help me out. :)

He was called the Frankford Slasher. He raped and murdered 7-8 women. His first victim's body, Helen Patent, was found in a railroad yard in 1985. Sylvester Stallone used this area for his film Rocky.

This could be real interesting !!

Shockingly small world, huh?

I'll never forget the time I was visiting my brother in California and one of his A-typical brain dead west coast California friends actually said to me, "You're from St. Louis? I have a sister in Indianapolis!"

What am I suppose to say to that!? :P "Shit I probably know her!"

Never had much interest in going to California, in no small part due to its status as most populous state in the union.

Indianapolis has a little under a million people in the city itself (which, thanks to UNIGOV, is almost the entire county), then you count the non integrated cities, the suburbs, the Greater Indianapolis Statistical area, and there are a lot of people. Although, you could always say what I do, "Fat, sweaty, three feet tall Mexican guy with a Himmler mustache who smells vaguely of gouda?"
Westfield?

You mean Westfield, Indiana AnimalMother ?
Home of the schizophrenic serial killer Herbert Baumeister who founded SAVE-A-LOT.

XD My point was everyone in California thinks everyone else lives together on an island. They seriously believe Cleveland, Indianapolis, St. Louis, Pittsburg are all different names for the same town. They also seem convinced most people outside of California don't have indoor plumbing or electricity. Last time I was out there a guy told me he had to go to the ATM and (my hand to god) he used finger quotation marks when he said "ATM". XD

Sounds like a vast majority are quote "A-typical brain dead" unquote. When I left Wisconsin, a friend also left WI and wanted me to move out there where she was going. I didn't and am mighty glad I didn't. And the previously mentioned was one reason.

Yes. And one of the places not far at all from the city where opossum stomping is a real sport.
And, if TV is to be believed, all Americans have easy access to a desert where they could do stuff, like ride a dirt bike, or shoot a gun.

Still, I know what you mean. Other than a radio show, I'm not aware St. Louis has a thing in common with Indianapolis. Of course, we're also the only ones screwing up the country.

We each have Super Bowl winning football teams.

I can't stand the jerks, but I suppose they do get us some publicity. (i.e. making the city pay for the stadium they wanted, not just some of it, THE WHOLE THING before the old one we built them was even paid off; the coach having a fundraiser for his cancer, which to my knowledge was for HIS cancer. Correct me if anyone knows differently, but that's what I've read/heard.)
