I live in Philadelphia and I think we should all meet in Bethlehem and raid and loot cbids warehouse or at least stand outside and beg for freebees, or maybe not.

Where about do you live, it is much easier to get to from 309, real easy, the store is cool and there are a couple of cigar frindly bars right nearby, if CI had say a cool rolling event or sponsered an event that would be cool and the members of this here board could be special guests. Hmmm sounds good. If you guys want to get together and smoke a few let me know i'll do my best to be there.

I drive a tractor trailer for Strohmanns Bakery from New York to the bakeries in PA every day. Toss a lot of ceegar butts out onto your blacktop.

SteveS Hey, what town you live in. I'll only feed your dog if I can feed it my dog. No automatic sprinklers? Don't forget, Pittsburg west has no H.

Hey, Sam

Do I understand you right? you'll feed my dog only if your dog is the dinner to be eaten? What sort of dog do you have ?? Dunno why I ask that ... mine eats 3 cups of food twice a day and acts as if she'd never been fed before ... she'll eat absolutely ANYthing ...
About the spelling of P-burg ... I know that and knew I'd made a mistake as soon as I pressed the damn button, but I haven't yet figured out how to UNpress it .. lol. No sprinkers ... sorry 'bout that.
Oh, yes ... I live in Dublin, but work in SF ... where you at?

living in SF and working in San Ramon? That's the reverse of what I do ... drop me a note after you arrive and we'll see about getting together ... that'd be nice.

Gentlemen, I live in Brentwood, out in the sticks. We're all pretty close and yet not just around the corner. Might be fun to share a stogie and tell tales of how we ended up here. SteveS - the dog I want eaten is one of those little PIA's (pain in the ass) who just loves to yap just to irritate me, probably not enough meat for your dog though.

Jon - You're right. Just about everyone up here is from Kensington, Richmond or worse yet, Fishtown. It seems that Richmond and Bridesburg are the only area neighborhoods that have held their own throughout the years. It's all you Poles that stick together. -Mike

Only was there once passing through...maybe 1 hour north of Pittsburg...My dad was born there but moved here to San Diego, CA when he was 3...thank the GOOD LORD! Not that PA isn't beautiful and full of great people...just that Grove City is itty bitty and I like to get my big city groove on!
