  As long as the subject is bizarre shite,  Check out Russias' new low tech mine detector.

Chuckle.

I am a native of Durango, CO.  For years there has been a debate, what to call ourselves?

Duranga-Tang

Durangoes

My preference:  Durangoid.

Texans call us Duran-gas....ugh y'all.

If it's Bellingham, Washington we're talking about, I call them "lucky."  What a great place to live!  And still somewhat off the grid unlike, say, Boise, ID, which has been on a lot of "best places to live" for awhile now.

I lived in B'ham for a few years during and after college.  A wonderful place in the late 70's.  Hope it hasn't changed too much.

Here I've been trying to get Bungendore residents to embrace 'Bungendorks' for a while. Oddly I seem to be meeting fairly stiff resistance. :sad: humourless bastards......

Been here since 1968.  I remember when there was two stoplights in town!  Yes, it has changed a bit, but still has the charm, fresh air, mountains, and islands that it always has!!!

One of my favorite things to do is have breakfast near the water or on the islands somewhere in Puget Sound and then take the Quota to the end of the road at Mt. Baker (elev. 5,220') in the afternoon!  Doesn't get much better than that!
