MemberWow really? I'm surpriesd. Do they ask things like, "Where'd you park your ark?"
Seriously....I have a couple of young friends who just had their first baby and named him Noah and my first thought was how the kids would make fun of his name (kids can be so cruel). But if it hasn't happened to you maybe there is hope.

First,
Nobody asks me where'd you park your ark?, after twenty years of life, and I was rarely ever jested at, about my name, though whenever someone would talk about, well, the big Noah, someone had to get confused.
Nobody ever teased me, so I don't think it'll happen to "a couple of young friends who just had their first baby and named him Noah,", as most of my friends didn't even know what Noah meant.regards,

MemberNoah....Hi again.....I just saw your reply from a week ago (haven't been here much lately). I'm glad to hear you've never had any problems about the name thing. Maybe it's just the area where I grew up cause kids didn't miss a beat with anything. If they could find the slightest little thing to tease you about they used it....your name, wearing glasses, the way your hair was cut, etc.
Hope I didn't offend you in any way I certainly didn't mean to.
Hi Beth & Mrs C, nice to meet you, glad you've joined us. you'll like it here.

MemberSince I joined yesterday to start a topic, I might as well come here and "make it legal". Do some posting over in the comments section. Name's Paul. Archangel, if you're moderating, Richmond, KY. You probably know, 25 miles south of Lexington. Home of my alma mater, Eastern KY University. Have been to Fort Campbell a couple of times. Staged there and decommissioned in 2003 when my guard unit got called up to augment the security force at Fort Knox. Originally, though, I'm from Pittsburgh. Moved around some when I was in the Navy. Lived, or was stationed in, 6 states and over in Sicily. Have visited about half the country and Canada, the Bahamas, and the former Yugoslavia, because that's where my ancestors were from. Have been an Electronics Technician and done a little computer. Put the electronics on hold to try and become a radio annoumcer, but didn't work out, and couldn't take the egos. Trying to get back into electronics.

MemberOh, I forgot. Saw a post from a month ago from Txnnok from Oklahoma. Said they had been in Nashville, but wanted to get back in the wide open spaces because they felt the mountains closing in them. Shows what others have said about diversity. I've been to the wide open spaces and I can see how the long horizon can be awe inspiring, but I'm from the Appalachians and I love mountains and trees. I like that closed in feeling. It's like a security blanket. And I like the variety. The tree deprived "flats" I find slightly sole deadening because they're so boring. And I've been in the Rockies in Colorado. Too rocky! Nothing but pine. Seriously, both of those places are beautiful, but I love the variety of dozen and dozens of varieties of deciduos trees. American variety! As they say, "Ome man's trash is another man's treasure.". :)

MemberWelcome Ms. Davis and watcher13.
@ watcher13
You asked if I know where Richmond is. Its the Police Academy at EKU ROTFLMAO. I also received my degree from there. And it looks like I'll be back in Richmond after the first of the year for penal code and constitutional updates. Looks like I'm coming out of retirement for a buddy (his been mayor for 22 yrs now) and straighten up Department.
Glad you chimed in and joined the forum part.

MemberMs Davis.....I'm about as close to the center of the Poconos as you can get. Near Camelback. We're about an hour from the Honesdale area. Right now I'd rather be someplace warm.....like Texas. We're planning to move there some time in the coming year (hubby says spring, but I say fall......we'll see).
Watcher.....How long ago were you at the Depot? I have friends and relatives who've worked there for years or were stationed there for a while.
freebird....thanks for sharing the video.....it's nice to see places I'll probably never get to.

MemberBuckley'smom: took a 14 week Army School up there while I was in the KY Guard, which was split into 2 seven week sessions with a long Xmas break. Late October through early Dec. 2002, and Feb-Mar 2003. Unlikely anybody would remember me unless they were at the electronics school. Did as much site seeing as I could. Didn't stop in your town, though. Went through on the way back from stopping at the Glass Museum at White Mills. Might have stopped to eat. (?) Went to Grey Towers, went down the coal mine in Scranton. That was really eye opening because my maternal grandfather was a coal miner in Western PA. Went lots of other places. Great vacation on the public nickel. (I was an honor graduate, so your tax money didn't go to waist.) Got lots of great pictures. Still partial to Appalachia, but I can see why people like it up there. Funny thing was, now that I think of it, I was there as a teenager, too. 1972. I was attending a high school conference at the now defunct Mt. Airy lodge. Went past there in 2003 and stopped by to check it out. Weird. Empty shell of a building that I remembered as a great lodge. A shame about some of the resorts that have closed down. Still, there's obviously tons to see and do up your way.
