Bertrand here. I've visited Cyburbia off and on for several years and have finally taken the plunge to join. I reside in the Midwest, but long for the coast.

Welcome to Cyburbia, Bertrand! Glad you decided to join us! May you have fun here and stick around; although your introduction thread hasn't picked up much traffic yet, but due to the late night hours, it's quite evident.
Welcome from the Midwest -- Wisconsin. Just waiting for the snow to fly. God I love winter.

"Oh, that is all well and good, but, voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country."
- Herman Göring at the Nuremburg trials (thoughts on democracy)
Welcome from west of Gedunker, still in the Hoosier State and along the Ohio River.

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves?
Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here?
Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
From Kelly's Heroes (1970)

No. Just some parts wake up faster than others.
Broke parts take a little longer, though.

Welcome from a blue stater!
Actually I do mean voyeur. French, from Old French, one who lies in wait, from voir, to see.
It's not so much the coasts (I'm a land lover) it's the Blue States I long for. They tend to be on the coasts.

Remember this motto to live by: "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming 'WOO- HOO what a ride!'"
Welcome from a city in a Midwestern blue state with a coastline -- Chicago!

He did not know he could not fly, so he did.
