[Senexx]

I disappear for a bit and all the good things happen

 

Sorry to have missed it.

[Millon]

Hey Senexx! Don't feel left out. We would all really love a chance to get to know you. Where you from? I'm in Buffalo, New York. I read your rather extensive introduction. Impressive sir. So how about something like what is there fun to do in your city/town/ state. Give us a little of who you are.

[Senexx]

Re: City/Town

 

imagine your nearest city and the stuff you can do there, now divide that by 10000, thats what  there is fun to do in my town.

 

As for States, here in Oz we're not really States based or States cultured.  Except in New South Wales (NSW) and Queensland (QLD - puns about Queens welcome) when it's State of Origin Time.  A traditional tribal rugby league match.

 

I just there is more I could give culturally about my town but I prefer to err on the side of anonymity for now.

 

Besides isn't culture week over?

[Marta Sedai]

Yap, it is over... It finished a week ago...
