    Coming in from the River City (the real Peoria)

    Hi everyone! I've been looking around in these forums for a while now and decided to finally heed the annoying message Cyburbia kept giving me. Lots of interesting topics and helpful advice going round.

    I'm currently a planning intern, but will be moving to Rutgers this fall for grad school. Transportation planning is my main interest, along with everything dealing with economics.

    I'm not a chef, but I like to cook and I like the name.

    Anyways, (now that I'm officially introduced) I'll be seeing you around!

    Welcome from the Florida panhandle. I enjoy cooking, too.

    There's just one thing you need to remember sometimes:

    A nuisance may be merely a right thing in the wrong place — like a pig in the parlor instead of the barnyard.

    Welcome from the hotter, drier, and more populous Peoria

    Are you interning with Tri-County?
    Dude, I'm cheesing so hard right now.

    Hello, from Dallas, TX!
    "We do not need any other Tutankhamun's tomb with all its treasures. We need context. We need understanding. We need knowledge of historical events to tie them together. We don't know much. Of course we know a lot, but it is context that's missing, not treasures." - Werner Herzog, in Archaeology, March/April 2011

    Yessir. That was fast.

    BTW I only resent Peoria, AZ because of it messing with my google searches from time to time... I'm sure it's lovely

    Welcome from the Hoosier State, along the Ohio River.

    My fair community also refers to itself as "River City"

    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)

    Are you sure you're not hurt ?
    No. Just some parts wake up faster than others.
    Broke parts take a little longer, though.
    From Electric Horseman (1979)
