| Your environment will grow on you. Or with you. Or in you. When I was young and moving around a lot, I found myself adopting to the accents, too. But, even when I was at my most adopted at an accent, I would still be asked if I was from Texas. LOL! (Texas really is my adopted home, from childhood, on.) Now my accent has blended with all my past roaming and learning. But, if I came to California, you would immediately assume I was from Texas. Does that make sense? In Texas I sound cultured, anywhere else, I sound like Texas. Go Figure. Toke. [ Post Comment ] |

| I've only been in California for a little over four months now, and I can tell you I don't really feel like a Pennsylvanian any more. That's what I was, but not who I am, and the people I talk to back home can tell I've changed and talk about changing too. I won't say I'm a Californian yet, though, either. I only have the mindset partly, so far. I might change more in the next six months than I have in the last. [ Post Comment ] |

| Some of those farmers must have figured out that a little fert and a plow might make 'em a dollar in them thar' hills. Poverty abounds in this state. Clinton helped, but the people have become so compliant with, and dependant on government dollars, social mentality and progressiveness remained 1940-1950 stagnant. So, this amazes me for them to be the opposite they were when I was a child growing up there. I suppose I know less about my birth-state, now, than all the other states I have lived in. God bless 'em. Maybe I CAN go home someday! NOT. I'm a transplanted Texan, and that's all there is to that. Toke.

| From correspondents in The Hague November 22, 2006 Defying police warnings, a Dutch group is set to roll the world's biggest joint, sending the previous record for a marijuana cigarette up in smoke. The world's largest joint will be a 500g, metre-long monstrosity, rolled with cigarette paper and easily dwarfing the previous 100g winner, ANP news agency reported overnight. To beat the record, it must be made entirely of marijuana with no tobacco mix. "Afterwards we'll light it up," predicted event organiser Thijs Verheij, who is hoping his feat will land in the Guinness Book of Records. The Dutch police are not amused, however, warning they will intervene if the joint surpasses the five grams of marijuana allowed for consumption and sale in the Netherlands.
