I thought that Afghanistan was the 51st state...oh well. I'm in the southern end of Denton County, just north of Dallas, TX. Where Dubya will once again be in control of Texas through his cronies recently put into office. (I would have voted, but someone screwed up on my application when I renewed my DL, and I didn't know until Nov. 5. I was pissed off.)

I live in NYC now (Manhattan in case you were curious)

I can't tell you much else, or I'd have to kill you. And I wouldn't want to do that, now would I?   :D

Born and raised in Athens, Greece. Bazoukas and I seem to be the only Greeks here with the exception that I'm the only one posting from Greece.   :D  

I've also stayed in the UK for two years where I was doing a BEng at Mechanical Engineering at the University of Greenwich (Chatham, Kent). Unfortunately I dropped out and finished my studies in Greece at a completely different field.   (http://smile.gif)

Get us some Bears tickets and I'll be there! (Or a Cubs/Cards game at Wrigleyville, or a Hawks/Blues game).

Hey did you hear about them suspending Bears practice for two hours the other day?  Yeah, they found this white powdery substance on the field so they called in the FBI to analyze it. Turns out it was just the white chalk used to create the goal line. Practice resumed as it was determined the risk of the Bears encountering this substance again is highly unlikely.
