Where does everybody hail from? I'm stuck in the corn ghetto of southern Illinois!! To get to my house, you have to find nowhere and make a hard left turn.

I gotta agree with you my man, there is always something to do in this state.Thank you. FracStrat! There is a remote possibility that my son in law may get transferred to Fort Lewis in the near future. I may get to see your beautiful state!






We get em all, the good with the bad.Nothing like our Swamp critters...
You can apply for a license and tags for those pesky critters...
But I have what the call Hillbilly Law on my property....
Hillbilly Law ( You bought, paid and pay taxes on it)
(So DON’T tell me WTF I can do on it) or what color my house is or the style of mailbox I can have.

Eldorado is a little more than a hundred miles south of us. I shoulda said that I'm in the southern part of central Illinois. Everyone around here calls it southern Illinois though. May be the inbreeding...I have been in Southern ILL before. A place called Eldorado. Beautiful place.
We live in NE Illinois now. Kankakee and interstate 80 are considered southern Illinois to these people.Eldorado is a little more than a hundred miles south of us.

My best bud is from Belleville! Lives down here in the corn ghetto now.For awhile I lived in Belleville, Illinois.
I was cool being close enough to St. Louis to visit some museums...catch a couple St. Louis Blues hockey games...whatever....
I lived in Keokuk, Iowa for the better part of the 80s. Brutal winters!But anyway. For the first nearly 50 years on this rock, I lived in a little rural community in western Illinois. Farm country. For those of you from Illinois/Iowa/ Wisconsin you probably know the area as the Quad Cities. For the rest of you..... Rock Island, Moline Illinois and Davenport Iowa were about 40 miles north of us. 2002 we moved to the NE corner of the state following jobs.
I added this member's map feature in my last software upgrade. I could have set it to show your location based on the IP address you posted from. However I opted to allow those that wished to remain anonymous, stay anonymous. Therefore vague locations such as Ambassador of the Swamp will not be able to correctly locate you on the map.Those who put the USA as their location will display a USA map. Those who put the state for their location will display their state. Those who add a city will have the city display. Those who do not add a location will remain anonymous. Neat huh?
