    We probably would have been on the same bus but I didnt ride the bus much. Only when I rode home with a friend, in Oak Hills, before football practice.:thumb:

    I was raised in the country, at Bosco, La., 7 miles from Cankton, which is 20 miles outside Lafayette. Raised a Tiger Fan, but went to ULL, it was a money thing. Lived in NO/Mandeville for 15 years (73-87), worked for McDermott for 12. Moved to Houston in 87, been here since.

    I miss the food. People in Houston are nice, but its different. I say they are nice because they have been trained to be nice. In La., people seem to have a more genuine heart about them. We have the same lack of terrain, high humidity, and some BIG bugs over hear. You should see some of the roaches!

    I was born in California, to my great surprize. My Southern parents traveled a lot because my dad's company relocated them every year or two. I lived in Nevada, Texas, New Orleans, Shreveport, Utah, and Nebraska before my dad retired in the 60's and we settled in Winnfield and later in the Alexandria area when I was 8. That's where I really grew up until I moved to BR at 17 to go to LSU.

    Born ('78) and raised in Montegut, LA. Lived in my current house until I was 3, when my dad bought the house my Great Grandfather built around 1910. When I got married, this house was available, so I jumped on it quick. I stayed in a rent house in Thibodaux for a little while with some fraternity brothers while in college. Graduated from Vandebilt Catholic High in Houma in '96. Went to Nicholls for a few semesters. Just recently started spending time in Corpus Christi, Texas are (leaving tomorrow night to go again) for work.

    This is really quite a diverse group here. I'm a little surprised, but that's why I thought this thread would be interesting.:)
