I as well. I had to look it up. I didn't think anyone used that phrase anymore since the 80s in America. Proof that Monster has been assimilated if not a little behind. She is an American now.

nice one Jinx

I'm shocked, it actually included the right answer!

skysidhe · 01-05-2010, 09:46 PM

I googled and I got the right answer too.

@ Merc, Yes it's not a true statement if you love your country.

xoxoxoBruce · 01-05-2010, 09:48 PM

Kiss my ass. :p And that was only the first page.

skysidhe · 01-05-2010, 10:06 PM

That was my (KMA) Knowledge Monitoring Assessment.

I voted for PA because my heart lies there, even though I currently reside in the great mistake of Texas.

I'm familiar with BFE, but I've always preferred BFI, since I am, y'know, in the US.

Where in the US?

Dude, if you hate your town so much, you should've moved. :p

I'm trying! I'm trying!

It's the wife! She won't move to PA for any money. Apparently, it's too cold and damp for her bones or some such nonsense. Or she won't know anyone. Or there will be some Mexican-hater there. Or it's too far from her family. She's got every excuse in the world why she won't go there.

We're trying to relocate to Dallas area now for the medical proximity for us both. Better doctors and hospitals you see. Some who even specialize in my conditions. I see it more as a stepping stone back home. If she can live there, she can live in Tennessee. If she can live THERE, she can live in Philly.

I think she would like it there if she's only give it a try. It's not THAT humid or cold. No more than here, anyway. Sure, it rains more but then the sun comes out again. Humidity reigns in August but they make these de-humidifiers for houses that I would install. And air-conditioning is nearly universal, unlike here where it is still considered a novelty and extravagance.

There is even a Mexican community so she can get a fix when she needs one. Maybe a few week long vacation will help her change her mind one summer. We'll see.

Ahhhh....I see, I see.

A long vacation sounds like a good plan.

Wait. You live in El Paso, and air-conditioning is considered an extravagance?

Not sure about El Paso - but here in NM the norm is swamp coolers - not refrigerated air, I'd never heard of a swamp cooler until I moved here, but they work!

BFE was included for fun. "Anywhere else" is a much more boring option, and I like the "alliteration" of the abbreviations :p I figured those who don't know what it means are smart enough to google and we discussed it on here not so long ago. Plus it's not a real poll if you don't have to think about some of the options

See, though, the Texans are taking over ....if Brian wasn't fighting so hard the score'd be 7 to 6...... Those of us in the boonies (

) just don't count.....

View Poll Results: Pennsylvania vs Texas vs Rest Of the ...is there anywhere else?
PA	12	35.29%
TX	5	14.71%
BFE	17	50.00%
Voters: 34. You may not vote on this poll
