Hey Succubus...would'nt Russia be considered north? LOL I am a little lost when it comes to geography ...I guess since I live up here in Alaska and Russia is West of us...I would consider it west...but from down below I would consider it north... Oh I don't know...I was wondering if I should have put Hawaii as both west and east ????? It is kinda floating out there in the middle of that line is'nt it???

Tecumapese - I take it you are a fellow Shellback:D
Are you a Golden Dragon? We crossed "the place" and I am a Golden Shellback. I am also a Bluenose Polar Bear, and whatever we became in Antarctica (besides colder than hell). (These are military line crossing initiations, for the civilian-impaired, no tribal clanship claimed by these titles).
