Where's Everyone Live?

[Keederdag]

Seem to be more than a few Brit's here? Am I wrong?
Me I'm From Arizona USA.

You're not wrong. JohnShaft as well as many of our writers are indeed in the UK, and that's where we've gotten a strong amount of our audience - hence how I try to include the UK in the Ameri-centric news stories whenever possible.

Me, I'm a total yank. I'm living in Florida, having recently moved there from Minnesota. I work for a low pay for a very wholesome national cable television station. Our own webmaster, JohnShaft didn't even realize I was an American at first until I mentioned it. I think I said something like, "That's okay, I catch people off-guard with a basic ability to form complete sentences." I'm a big fan of self-deprecating humor. :D

[Keederdag]

Complete sentences.........very true. However it is thier language, we just borrowed pieces. I have the better than average American education, and I still cant spell; and dont even pretend that I speak The Queens Englesh(Elton John). :D

I have been in Tennessee all my life. Here the scary inbreds of such films as Just Before Dawn and The Hills Have Eyes are not fantasy. In fact they stand before you in line at Burger King.

The above post is me. If I had a dime for every time I did that....

Hi Keeder. You're not wrong about our British bias, but I think that has mostly drifted now.

If you look in the archives our reviewers are about 50/50 split English/American, with most of the newer reviewers being American.

I'm from the northern, more colder part, of England. And trust me when I say I'd swap for living in America (and that Arizonian sun) in a heartbeat. I'm an American born in the wrong country. B)

One of your best qualities mate.
Anyone who can laugh at themselves is OK in my book.
Hell, looking at myself in the mirror, I find it hard not to.

And who would that be again, dear? :D

As for Tennessee, there's a lot of the state I like. But I hope you won't mind that I once had an overnight stopover in Raccoon Mountain, TN (I think) and was scared shitless. Fucking DELIVERANCE country, man!!! :crazy: Just kidding of course, the place is the birthplace of American music and the home of rock and roll.

KEEDERANG: Arizona I've always wanted to see. Hey, I have gone from twenty below blizzards with - I'm not kidding - wind chills that reached -42 once. Now, I'm wearing a short sleeve shirt, decorating the lawn for Christmas and if I never see another snowflake again it will be too soon. Wait til my blood warms over a bit, and I may head that way pretty soon.

JESTER21: I used to live in Jersey until I was just shy of thirteen. Used to go to Philadelphia all the time. Frequent visits to Wills Eye Hospital to take care of my ever-malfunctioning peepers.

JOHNSHAFT: Is that the ratio these days? Wow, we Americans are taking over everything. Don't worry though, it won't be a George W. Bush "victory," since I didn't vote for the asshole. ( Hmm, what is that clicking noise on my phone? )

As for the self-deprecating humor, it gets the better of me and I get lectured on not being hard on myself. But let's face it, if you can't laugh at yourself, you may as well give up. I'm a visually impaired 28 year old with minimal income and chronic depression... but I've got my humor and winning smile. I too am sensitive about my face, build and voice and thus the World Wide Web is a godsend for communicating my views, skewed as they are.

That would be me! I made the same mistake twice and I felt like a stupid loaf so I gave up. You don't offend me at all man. There are plenty of places around here that are scary. I work for an electric company that services rural areas..ie redneck ville. Anyway, This guy built an extension on his house and built the house around our electric pole. Classy stuff..nothing like a utility pole in the middle of the room.
