Born, Raised, and happily living right here in NY.
Dedicated to Sgt. Howard Bruckner 1950 - 1969. KIA LONG KHANH.

But we were boys, and boys will be boys, and so they will. To us, everything was dangerous, but what of that? Had we not been made to live forever?

Ontario, Canada, just outside Toronto. If your ever in the area, let me know.

I also believe that there are enough of us to qualify for our own country in the count, other, come on that just BS.  Other is for guys that live in country's like Iceland, and Maldives.  Please for the love of the Queen, get us in the count.

Isn't Canada a part of the US like New Zealand is part of Oz? ;D

No Terry  Canada is not part of the USA!  Socialism is just spreading in the US it has all ready choked Canada

These wonderful little birds are great flyers, delicious eating, excellent for training your hunting dog, and just fun to shoot,or stuff and keep around the house.  Bobwhites can be put with other types of Quail and have very large penis's.  Quail are very popular with the babes.

I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Well of course I for one love Kiwi women mate, and I'm glad to see that you've realised that the sheep in "UnZud" pose too much competition in the motherland, so you've done the very wise thing and migrated to the mainland so as to give your male children the chance to improve the blood-line, so as to ensure future generations of the Turtle name. Well done! Cheers, Terry. ;D

[size=10pt]I'm an Okie... and Damn proud to be a TRUE Native American!  Had to sell my '67 knucklehead hardtail and find a CB750A....took a round in the 'Nam in my left arm and can't use it to shift anymore. :'(  The scalping 'art' came in handy in the 'Nam...only we took ears instead of scalps for our 'kill count'.  I'm still vice prez of ABATE here and some of my Angels friends from Hollister are riding down here for a pow wow in May.  I hope like hell we never hear the word 'MATE' when they're here.  We take that term Literally and have always heard that 'Mates' in Oz make good #$%*es. ;D
