[Crazy Guggenheim]

22. I was born in R.I. and miss it sometimes.

[GreenPartyVoter]

24. Yeah. It's hard to leave home. I can't foresee myself

moving elsewhere. Just moving inland to the mountains felt all wrong. Needed my salty air. :)

[warrens]

79. I grew up in Westbrook

Which was a lot different back then, in the 60s

[evlbstrd]

82. Beautiful!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

97. Wow, GPV!

Coastal Maine is wonderful! Did you take the pics? Fabulous...

[ralps]

53. Do you live near Portland? The reason I'm asking is that I have

a Sister & Brother-in-law that live near Scarborough ME. :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[GreenPartyVoter]

64. No, I am more or less in the center of the coast. I went to Scarborough

HS this past fall (left at 5 in the frikkin morning) for a cheer coaches meeting, but I was so tired that I didn't really note my surroundings.

I do like the area, though, espe the old port in Portland. :) (Though my bro-in-law, who lived there for a while, said it's become a rather dangerous place at night)

[Maine-ah]

[Crazy Guggenheim]

85. Isn't Maat Egytian?

[Maat]

87. HeHeHe.

This 46-year-old recent law graduate needed a new name (I started out as LawStudentMom here) - my husband picked 'Maat' for a handle - because she is the Egyptian Goddess of Justice, Law, and Education. She would be the one standing next to Osiris right after Egyptians died. She would weigh their heart against her ostrich feather, and judge how much character they had exercised in their life basically.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

90. I'm tyring to think of some other names. Who is Rahourkuit?

[Maat]

95. You got me there.

I'm going to have to look it up.

We had to go all over the place to find a statue of Maat, which I found in a store called 'Lady of the Lake,' which has all kinds of offbeat stuff - for faiths other than Conservative Christian.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

96. I found it. Don't worry.

I didn't realize. lol. But hey it's cool.

[Maat]

109. Well ..

I couldn't find it.

Seemed to be an organized faith of some sort; some sites had Rhoorkuit roled up with Neopagan faiths.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

127. Yeah that's what it is. It's a part of Aliester Crowley. Cool!

:evilgrin:

[Maat]

145. Googled the man's name.

Interesting story I read in a bio.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

146. Ahem. Yes. That's where I heard it from. COOL!

I could give a shit about these juveniles getting into flame wars. Like i said in another post, I like to talk music and politics and even sometimes cats (my Maine Coon is dying of cancer, so I sympathize with pet owners). I cannot believe how inflammatory both sides were in this thang. I don't think either should have been banned, but from what i saw, the second person banned deserved it more.

[Melynn]

150. I'm from parts unknown

I come from the badlands, the no-go zones, the no man's land, a place where others fear to trend.

Since I have no place to find rest, I wander the land looking for momentary comfort before I continue my journey to find a home that doesn't exist. I live a insane existence, looking for something that doesn't exist but my insanity gives me the strength to survive.

Just kidding. I'm from Ohio.

[Biased Liberal Media]

151. I live in Washington State but I am originally from California

and yes, I'm here to stay. :)
