Name of who lives there
Name of who lives there
(OP)
On another thread I asked, what are the people who live in Paris called?
Those who live in Canada are Canadians
Those who live in New York are New Yorkers
Those who live in Wisconsin are Wisconsinites
And those who live in Texas are Texans
etc
As I mentioned in the previous thread, I lived in Marshall, TX (a Marshallite) before moving to Paris, TX. so it came natural to call our neighbors Parisites [though I don't think any would have liked it if they heard us.]
play nice!

I'm a "Cheesehead", and I'm proud.
California? New York? Florida? Been there; done that. I didn't like the whole scheme of earn twice as much to live half as well.

For me the weather is part of the reason I would like to leave North Carolina. And my first choice is . . . Wisconsin

"entrenched in California" ?
I thought Calif. had a Fault not a trench?
Hey, it's not my fault.
I live in Texas,
where "Men are Men"... and the cattle are nervious!
I always wondered where the term "Cow Poke" came from!
Maybe I have the spelling wrong?
