Guest guest Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 Wow - talk about a coincidence!!! My stepbrother relocated from Cape Cod to Punxsutawney about 3 years ago!! LOL!!! And man, did I notice their accents! How funny!!! Yes, I live in Steelers Country. When the Patriots played the Steelers in the Superbowl a couple of years back, my stepbrother and sister-in-law came down here for the game. There were three of us "Yankees" in a room full of people who bleed black-and-gold. When the Patriots won, everyone in the room was absolutely speechless... they left as silently as if it was a Maundy Thursday service! LOL!! My step-brother, his wife and I just looked at each other, winked and did a hidden "thumbs up." We were afraid for our lives! LOL!!! I'm telling you, there is absolutely no fan in the world like a Steelers fan. I actually started bleeding black and gold about two years ago. This year everyone wore black and gold throughout the entire season. I have like one Steelers shirt that is waaay too tight, but I wore it out of reverence for my team. My sister lives in Denver (just outside), so we had our own little rivalry building up. Apparently Denver was inundated with Steelers fans, so she eventually threw in the towel and rooted for "the right" team. LOL!! Sorry to all you Denver fans... It's indescribable what it's like out here in Steelers Country. You either join em, or end up as feed at the hog farm. LOL! Thanks for the stroll down memory lane, Debbie! GO PATS!!!

He actually lives in Lawrence now right near the Andover line. My husbands family comes from Puxatwaney (sp?) PA (Groundhog country) and he is a big Steeler fan . Believe me , he does not get along with the Patriot fans around here! I know what you mean about the "ah's" and the "r"s because his family used to make fun of me and my accent but I poked fun at them because they moved up here with their funny accent from Penn.! It must have been hard for you to move down there . I feel for you! LOL Yes, the Christmas Tree shops are great , aren't they? There are several within 15 miles of me. Don't they have the little birds at Mc's down there ? lol Hugs, DebbieJeanne Betters wrote: Hi Debbie! Our family's home is on a major fault line in Marblehead, so we actually have always had concern that they'd be hit by a freak earthquake rather than flooding... Their home is literally a walk up the street from the harbor. Our family and friends' in Salem live in the Willows - literally 4 or 5 houses from the shore... I'm guessing in both cases, it might not be good news. I'm just really glad to hear your safe! So, have you been to Christmas Tree Shops, then? My favorite shopping spot of all time!! I have to tell you, too - sitting at a Mc's during lunchtime in Western PA is nothing like being in New England. Here they've got these little birds that are "annoying" when it comes to begging for fries... If they only could see the swooping fry attack of a seagull hoarde!!! There's just nothing like back home... I tell everyone that the only reason why I moved here was because my caveman husband clubbed me on the head, threw me over his shoulders by the hair and dragged me kicking and screaming to Steeler Country. The Neanderthal. I had to learn how to say, "r" instead of "ah" and everything! They all love the accent, but by golly they couldn't understand a dang word I said! LOL!!! And, as you well know, I'm sure, we talk really fast up north, so that didn't help my accent very much, either... The first year I lived here I thought EVERYONE was cross-eyed and clueless! When I started to get sick with the NS, I had no idea - I simply thought I was just fitting right in with the locals!!! LOL!! Have a great rest of the weekend - be safe and keep dry!

Guest guest Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 I know what you all are talking about, but mine is a college rivalry to beat them all. I was born in Florida and raised here, but I love Georgia and have always been a Georgia Bulldog - Univ of GA Fan. I live amongst the Gators much to my dismay. My oldest daugher is a die hard gator fan- univ. of fl, as is her husband. They keep telling me that my 5 yr old granddaughter will be a gator cheerleader and her 3 yr old brother will be a football player for the team one day. To this I politely pronounce that when the Fl-GA game comes up I will wear my GA colors even if I am cheering for my grandson. My daughter has told me to make sure I am riding in a different car from them because I will get us all killed in the swamp. I mess with her and tell her I'm not afraid of "lizards". (It's all in fun) But on the serious side I have never known more serious or obnoxious fans than Fl Gators. - they take it to the max. In our town we have someone has a PT Cruise painted blue and orange with Fl Gator flags, and there was a station wagon with all the paint covered in Fl Gator bumper stickers - go figure.

My step-brother, his wife and I just looked at each other, winked and did a hidden "thumbs up." We were afraid for our lives! LOL!!! I'm telling you, there is absolutely no fan in the world like a Steelers fan. I actually started bleeding black and gold about two years ago. This year everyone wore black and gold throughout the entire season. I have like one Steelers shirt that is waaay too tight, but I wore it out of reverence for my team. My sister lives in Denver (just outside), so we had our own little rivalry building up. Apparently Denver was inundated with Steelers fans, so she eventually threw in the towel and rooted for "the right" team. LOL!! Sorry to all you Denver fans... It's indescribable what it's like out here in Steelers Country. You either join em, or end up as feed at the hog farm. LOL! Thanks for the stroll down memory lane, Debbie! GO PATS!!!

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2006 Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 Rose, Ok, what did I do that you wish my demise? Was it something I said. My gravy my son-in-law is an ex-deputy. There would be some interesting fireworks over northeast fl though, you can bet on that////ConnieRose wrote: What if you told them that your grandson was going to be the cheerleader & your granddaughter was debating between a wide receiver or quarterback?!? Ramblin' Rose Moderator Reply-To: Neurosarcoidosis To: Neurosarcoidosis Subject: Re: Re: flooding in New EnglandDate: Tue, 23 May 2006 08:46:23 -0700 (PDT) I know what you all are talking about, but mine is a college rivalry to beat them all. I was born in Florida and raised here, but I love Georgia and have always been a Georgia Bulldog - Univ of GA Fan. I live amongst the Gators much to my dismay. My oldest daugher is a die hard gator fan- univ. of fl, as is her husband. They keep telling me that my 5 yr old granddaughter will be a gator cheerleader and her 3 yr old brother will be a football player for the team one day. To this I politely pronounce that when the Fl-GA game comes up I will wear my GA colors even if I am cheering for my grandson. My daughter has told me to make sure I am riding in a different car from them because I will get us all killed in the swamp. I mess with her and tell her I'm not afraid of "lizards". (It's all in fun) But on the serious side I have never known more serious or obnoxious fans than Fl Gators. - they take it to the max. In our town we have someone has a PT Cruise painted blue and orange with Fl Gator flags, and there was a station wagon with all the paint covered in Fl Gator bumper stickers - go figure.
