Re: Where are you from?

So nice of you to return.
I'm glad to have met a Scandinavian neighbor here now.
Yes, I looked at your website. You are doing a great job.
I would like to visit Bergen. It's so pretty in the pictures, although it is said to rain very often.
Also I would like to take a trip with "Hurtigruten". Have you ever tried that?
Is it something Norwegians like or is it mainly for tourists?
We had a TV-series of, I think some 10 installments, about life on board one of Hurtigruten's ships. That was interesting.
I hope you have time for a cup of coffee now before you go back doing captain work.

Re: Where are you from?

Good Evening txyankee,
How are you?
I don't think I got around to ask you what the concept is with your handle.
Only that I was a bit puzzled: Texas, Yankee, more or less Midwest.
There must be a red thread winding through it.
I should like to know, if you would like to tell.
Would you care for coffee or tea - or maybe rather a beer.
Is "Milwaukee" brewed there or just a trademark?
coffee

if I keep drinking coffee at this rate I fear for the lining of my stomach

Re: Where are you from?

There is one more cruncher sitting on that sturdy fence of mine now.
wcgrid123 - handy name - nice seeing you here.
You have crunched for about two months now. How do you like it?
Have you had any difficulties getting started?
Where do you come from?
You have nothing in your "My Forum Profile".
If you wish, you could put in your country as a minimum.
You may tell us the city and/or state as well.
So far, four crunchers have been responsive to this openness.
Spot #5 is yours if you want it, wcgrid123 smile

Re: Where are you from?

I don't know how I came up with the name.

Re: Where are you from?

Thank you for putting this skin dead thread back to life!
You must have dug real deep to find it!
smile

So, you don't know?
I think you have thought of something when you created it.
I still think it's still kind of cute.
If it comes to mind for you what inspired you, will you tell me, please?
Where in England do you live?

Re: Where are you from?

kffitzgerald, you sit on my fence,
and I don't know whether you are from Ireland or Hyannisport, Massachusetts.
Would you mind telling a curious soul, please?
-and maybe add it to your "Forum Profile" for everybody to see?
It's up to each of us to try to keep the others entertained, don't you agree?
Some are entertained by geography, and it's free!
Oh, my, I think I just rhymed!

Re: Where are you from?

MeMyselfandI10, when you and I first talked, you didn't have a country put down in your "Forum Profile".
Just checked: You have put England in.
That earns you a #5 spot.
Thank you, and don't forget to tell me about your handle, when your recall ...

Re: Where are you from?

kffitzgerald, rumors travel fast.
You have a #6 spot for telling us you are from New Hampshire.
I think it's the first time I saw a cruncher from your state.

Re: Where are you from?

It was chosen quit a while ago - I really can't remember where it came from.

PS I'm in Wiltshire.

Re: Where are you from?

That's nice, MeMyselfandI10, Stonehenge and all.
OK, I'll let you off the hook.

See you around
