@ Loretta and Mark, Howdy neighbors!
Mark, you're a stretch, but my parents were born and raised in Kansas (where I got some of the setting in Part I of Survivors of the Chaos). I was born in California, did a long sojourn in Colombia, South America, and returned to the U.S., but East not West, first in the Boston area and now NJ. I guess I can't say I've stayed in one place long enough, but NJ it is now, at least for the time being.
Welcome...and I'm happy to make your acquaintances.

Thank you Mark! Looking forward to some more lively discussions!

@ Loretta,
Because I now live in NJ now, we really are neighbors. I won't ask you where you live, but the Garden State is just one big happy place, right? (Alas, the produce from those bountiful gardens will soon be gone.)

Steve, I live in central New Jersey. Big happy place? Taxes through the roof. Sure, that makes me happy, NOT, but it is home and the only place I've ever known.

@ Loretta,
I hear you. I thought Taxachusetts was bad until I moved here. NJ income tax isn't so bad, but property and sales taxes are onerous, worse than MA, not to mention all this hidden fees...sigh....
r/Steve

[Loretta]

Steve, I didn't know that Massachusetts had high taxes too. It's a drag...

Loretta

[Steven]

@ Loretta,
MA has always been known for high taxes, hence Taxachusetts. But we had a shock when we moved to NJ. I guess the whole Northeast is high. NH, for example, doesn't have a state income tax, so they really sock it to you in the property and sales taxes. People still move across the border there from MA because real estate is more reasonable (and for the state-run liquor stores?).

[H.A.]

I'm from MA - just outside Boston. And taxes....very familiar with them! :)

We're all in the same boat I guess!

[H.A.]

Ha. There is no escape. Not in the U.S at least.

[Loretta]

That's for sure!

[Agnieszka]

Loretta, Steven and H.A. you can't complain about taxes and fees until you've been in Europe. We have here some really nice places like Greece, Spain or most of the former eastern block countries. Eaven if many Germans complain about the high taxes in Germany (they are not so bad, but nothing compared to some of our lovely neighbours) :-) Even in Poland were I was born it is worse than in Germany, lol

Guess we're all in the same boat Agnieszka! Good company!!

[Agnieszka]

Yeah, that's why I love that line from 'Meet Joe Black' where Drew says We all know this deal is as certain as death and taxes. That's life.

I usually just use it: Life is just as certains as death and taxes. lol

I was born in Stockholm, Sweden where I lived for most of my life. I then travelled (away from the dark, cold winters of my country) by myself and lived and worked in different countries: France, Cyprus, Spain, Israel, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore before I finally settled in Sydney, Australia where I live now.

I think our two babies, Habibi and Keiko, would second that, as would I...
