Okay my turn. Another Canadian. Born in Niagara Falls, Ontario. Lived in Buffalo NY for a while (my family is originally from there). I live 10 minutes from the border and am in Buffalo at least once a week. Die hard Bills fan and baseball fan. I follow the Blue Jays a little but not like the Bills. I am somewhat of an odd Candian as I don't like Hockey. Currently working on a '55 Topps set in PSA 5-7 and collect all Rickey Henderson. I work at Brock University as an advisor in the College-University Transfer office. Just got accepted to start my Masters of Education (part time) next fall. Kind of nervous to get back to school in the classroom. Been married for 3 years. Thats it! On a side note - I love these boards... such a wealth of knowledge here.
Born and raised in the Northern suburbs of Chicago.... Mchenry, Illinois. Worked in Chicago for many years and currently work in Lincolnshire, Illinois but live in the Lake Geneva area of Wisconsin. For the non Chicago people... Lake Geneva is just over the Illinois, Wisconsin border and it is the place where all the Chicago people come to spend their money on the weekends all the while making it impossible for the locals to get near the lake! LOL
