Hey, I cant help but notice your from Dayton. I live in Walla Walla.

I think I made that remark on another thread. I dont remember. I can't be bothered to look.

Yes, you made it before, but it's worth remarking on again.

Oh dear, I'm sorry. My mind is so scrambled of late. Dayton is a pretty little town. I lived there when I was in third grade.

Could I ask what year?

Surely, Dandelion. I went to school in Dayton elementary in about 97-98.


..Yes, I am a young'n.

Which is why I think the stated nonsense of the man who attacked Ray bradbury saying people only born around a certain era is nonsense. I started reading Bradbury with religious Awe when I was 13 years old. And if me, even when I was a snotty thirteen year old can better grasp the material then someone, who I am supposing is older (and allegedly wiser than I)then thats saying something, rather sorry in the case of this particular person.

...Sorry to go off on an unecessary rant.

Oh, your rant isn't unnecessary; it is necessary and quite appreciated!

Be cool if we could all do the Google Satellite Image thingy. I'll give my neighbor's address so you can all see what my personal version of Greentown is like.

5979 Devecchi Ave. #95
Citrus Heights, CA

I showed you mine, now show us yours.

I've got to ask - why did you give us your neighbours address, vice your own?

Oh my?

Gotcha, as they say - figured it was something like that.

But now you've put your poor neighbour in harm's way!

The neighbor in question must be full of mendacity...


She stood silently looking out into the great sallow distances of sea bottom, as if recalling something, her yellow eyes soft and moist...

Here's me. 2608 Merriwood Dr., Louisville, Ky. 40299. I welcome intruders...

By the way, look for the large pine tree in the front yard, it was our Christmas tree in 1968. I don't live with my parents at 44, we bought it from parents 13 years ago. A friend did that satellite image a few years ago and sent me the link and I could plainly see the tree.
