    Where are you from, where do you live currently, and why do you live there?

    I'll start off...

    Was raised from birth in Calumet City, IL. lived there till i went to college at the U of I and in 1999, i moved back to Champaign cause i loved this smaller town and the college vibe so much.

    now i live here with a family and work at the university of Illinois and couldn't be much happier.

    I DO hope to move to New Orleans before too long, probably after my 10 year old son is done with college. Thats my favorite place in America.

    Originally from suburbia NJ. I got a DWI out there and couldn't get to my job with an advertising agency and things got crazy, so I had a friend going to PSU who needed a room mate so I moved to Pa intending to go to PSU. While I was establishing residency to make PSU more affordable I ended up in Real Estate. 12 years later still in central Pa and Real Estate. It is amazing the diversity of females in Pa you have every flavor out here depending on what part of the state you are in. On my 2nd engagement as we speak still haven't gotten hitched. Things are pretty cool.

    Born in Cincinnati, spent a few years there, one year in Boston, a few years in Atlanta, moved to Knoxville, spent the last 13 years there mostly besides a year or so in NC for a girl, moving to Chicago in 39 days, probably will live there rest of my life. Could see myself going out west I guess depending on job offers.

    Congratulations Opie on your anniversary and your daughters birthday. Sounds like you have about a good life as anyone could ask for. Cheers.

    I hope the Rangers can win it all this year and make it even more perfect but I am little about worried about their pitching, I used to got to the old arlington stadium when I lived in Dallas as a real little kid and watch the rangers play ball, hope you get to see them win it all this year.

    Wilkinsburg Pa, (Pittsburgh) but in mid childhood my parents got me away from the animals and took me to the white trash 70 miles away in Oil City, Pa

    Moved to Chicago at the worst time possible to try to help out the ghosts of my early childhood, AND make a killing on real estate at the same time....

    I now live in a church basement, and i'm waiting for Brock Lander's wife to give me and my bride the ok, to rent out their spare bedroom/computer room out south.
