Yes. A city, a small city. It has a postal code.

Would this small city be in a land locked state?

Are you in Iowa?


...see, all this old/young stuff...not from our new hot mama-babe-thread-friend, but perhaps from some insecure young guy...though I don't see Tull being one of those either... so chalk this up to one too many beers at the lunch I just had...it was Smuttynose IPA draft...not bad if I say so myself. And that tear we saw rolling down the chiseled face of our heroic Native American Warrior in that commercial...well I had a bison burger with my beer so one less bite for the wolves.

Tully Mars

Well, I don't see you as an old dude in anyway shape or form... but I still got the hot chick in the room to call you "old."

You strike me as the type of guy who's 59 going on 29.

Close, but no cigar.

Not that close.

Different state.

A song to thee, fair State of mine,
Michigan, my Michigan;
But greater song than this is thine,
Michigan, my Michigan;
The whisper of the forest tree,
The thunder of the inland sea;
Unite in one grand symphony
Of Michigan, my Michigan.

I sing a State of all the best,
Michigan, my Michigan;
I sing a State with riches blest,
Michigan, my Michigan;
Thy mines unmask a hidden store,
But richer thy historic lore,
More great the love thy builders bore,
Oh, Michigan, my Michigan.

How fair the bosom of thy lakes,
Michigan, my Michigan;
What melody each river makes;
Michigan, my Michigan;
As to thy lakes the rivers tend,
Thy exiled children to thee send
Devotion that shall never end,
Oh, Michigan, my Michigan.

Thou rich in wealth makes a State,
Michigan, my Michigan;
Thou great in things that make us great,
Michigan, my Michigan;
Out loyal voices sound thy claim
Upon the golden roll of fame
Our loyal hands shall write the name
Of Michigan, my Michigan.


Yes, we are in Michigan. Not Ann Arbor though.

I may have been remiss is saying I am in a city. Perhaps a town is more like it.

I am in the western hemisphere...so not in Borneo, though I'd like to go there and check out the orangutans.

This one looks a little like my older son...when he was a baby



This one reminds me of my older son now, when he gets angry

No, not in a city. There is a city nearby with a name related to where I am, but that city is 26.8 miles away according to google maps.
