Rambling Post Alert :!:
ooops, thanks for reminding me about chowder, Sharkull..It is a regional speciality. Massachusetts (and Maine, too, I think) are also known for clam chowder. It is made a certain way in New England (FYI, "New England" refers to a region of states in the north east of the US) I guess the reason I forgot it is because I have a shellfish allergy . A dream vacation for a week would be someplace quiet and secluded, way in the woods and right next to a lake, 'cause I loves me some hiking and swimming! (sorry about your car accident, they are scary...)

I am reading Loup_Ombrage's post and I am willing to bet that the folks who thought you lived in a grass hut were Americans...I am an American,btw and I like my country, but I think as a nation we can be VERY ignorant of other cultures ...I could say more but I won't get into a political debate. I went to Ireland a while ago to visit relatives and attend a wedding and a very dear friend of mine asked if they had bathrooms in Ireland!!! 8O I guess she thought they did their "business" in the bushes someplace, lol. To anwser the question, however, I think one of the funniest stereotypes some of my fellow countrymen have of Massachusetts is that everyone who lives here is a rich snob. Either that, or if you say you are from South Boston, they think you are an Irish drunkard (another stereotype, the Irish drunk...) Personally I happen to think that people who use stereotypes to describe others are simply lazy lazy thinkers. They cannot be bothered to find out the truth. Whew, I am exhausted from all this typing and such..I am going to ask a simple question.

Q.) How do you wear your hair?
(mine is a little past shoulder length, very dark brown and curly)
