How Many Hoosiers?

[parson48]

Just wonderin' how many fellow Hoosiers are here. I was born and raised in Indianapolis.

There are none left. The last one died in captivity recently.

Not sure what they had in captivity at IU. They have such an influx of "feriners" down in Bloomington, and, it so heavy with PC sentiment, that gen-u-ine Hoosiers avoid the place. They likely were dealing with a metro that slipped in from Chicago.

I was born and raised in Indiana and spent most of my life there... even got the perfect retirement place with 10 acres, two stocked ponds and planted about 50 fruit trees... best neighbors and deer and turkey hunting I ever had.... then the kids got married and had kids in Pennsylvania... and Momma was not happy(I had moved with work about six times and bought houses she never had seen and never complained)..She had three heart attacks and other health issues and off to Pennsyltucky we went... still here, but go back to hunt Indiana every fall... now that I'm off in the winters I spend about six weeks there... bought my lifetime hunting license back in the 80's... best purchase I ever made.

Sorry that you were born in Indy tho.. tough luck.

Not a Hoosier, but I'm going to the NRA meetings in April. I will also be going down to West Baden Springs to see the town where my mother was born.

Well, for all of y'all that don't live here, I want to give you an invite to come to the NRA wing-ding that's just around the corner.

Hopefully the snow will be gone by then!

Born in Ft Wayne, rasied outside of Barbee, joined the Navy at 17 and haven't been back 'cept to visit. Indiana felt to me like it was in the middle of everything, but was the center of nothing. It was a nice quiet place to grow up though. Meth is a problem now, not as quiet as it used to be.
