Oh thank you for allowing us Ohioians to "count for something"! But you mean....mean....I'm a HYBRID of South and Midwest? Oh, heaven forbid! Save me! Save me! I border Canada and a hybrid of "hillbillies"!~   |
I grew up in Southern Ohio in farm country and trust me, hillbillies aren't just in Kentucky. |

That's because the pay there sucks. (Coming from a fellow midwesterner) |

It depends on what you mean by "down my way", I was born in raised in Orlando, and by Orlando I do mean the city of Orlando (lost of people say they're from Otown and are really from a suburb). I have a lot of family in South Florida. Whereabouts are you from? |
Yeah, I know what you mean by the suburbs. I was born in Titusville, but spent most of my life living in Orlando around College Park. It's good to know there are some Otown people here. |

Actually, I've found that euchre players generally come from either Ohio or Wisconsin. |
Really? I'm from northern Illinois, and my friends and I at home play euchre, but then again, we're awfully close to the Wisconsin border, so maybe it's the WI influence. |

| I'm originally from the northern part of the lower peninsula of Michigan (I have to clarify that, because if I just said Northern Michigan, people often think I mean the upper peninsula of Michigan). I visit my folks and other family members about once a year. |

I grew up playing euchre in upstate NY; see what I mean - Rochester is the start of the midwest. |
