Hello Joe from Massachusetts, AKA.Billie101.

Let's see: what would I tell a "newbie" such as yourself?

Read Read Read...after that read some more, and then you should be able to make friends to share experiences with!

So yeah... that's about it. oh wait, one more thing, I'm just curious: have you ever been to the UK?

Funny thing about these frozen treats in the NE... the first time I was in Boston I ordered a chocolate "milkshake" to take back to my room and I got chocolate milk! It was just "shaken" milk with chocolate syrup. It was wonderful and I drank it, but I learned quickly the differences between the regions and how to how to order ice cream - in any fashion - while in New England. LOL.

I LOVE a true Boston "accent" - it's a crack up to us West Coast folks who don't have an accent of any kind, yeah? ;-)

Damn, this is disappointing. 24+ hours gone by, and the guest of honor remains a no show. Hard to believe he wouldn't want to come back and take part in this wicked pissa of a quiz!

 

[Beranda]

Maybe there is a different Mass. USA ;-)

Yep, I'm sure that is it...and I think if I recall, and forgive me as it was many years ago (right after I finished serving in 'Nam) the last time I was driving through Mass'B' ( /default_cool.png...that's what we call it, they had super spotty internet coverage...could be weeks or months or...13 DAYS before service is restored.

I'm really not a bully; but Hooter1 telepathically peer pressured me.

For anyone unsure of whether I have cleverly woven sarcasm into this post:

"No, not at all, why?"

 

[billie101]

Well thank you all for the compliments!!  Wicked awesome!!  Ya, I get the accent thing A LOT!!  To answer some questions - I have never been to the U.K.  Maybe someday though, who knows?  I grew up in a small town called Wilmington, MA - about 25 minutes north of Boston on 93 - hooter1, I'm sure you know 93!!  But ya, Wilmington is small, however, the Boston Bruins do have a practice arena there and I grew up not to far from it... I've retrieved many a hockey stick from there.  Oh, by the way, HUGE Bruins fan!! 

 

[billie101]

P.S.  Sorry for the lack of posting in my own thread...  twin neice and nephew birthday parties.  YAY, what fun.  I've had enough cake and soda for EVERYONE here!!
