UHOH - Homewood's in the house!

Steel City, are you still in Boston? Are you up to answering the rest of the poll?

I'm not trying to get all in people's business, but I am trying to get a sense of the connections between Homewood and the wider community/world. And I believe that the strongest of those connections are at the personal level.

So, who else?

1. Yes I live in Homewood. I have lived here for 19 years and relocated here after living here briefly for two years 28 years ago. I am not a native and am originally from Youngstown, OH. Many parts of Homewood remind me of my neighborhood in Youngstown so I feel quite comfortable and "at home" in Our Homewood.

Mikey and chejason: do you two know each other yet? If not, maybe you should. If one of you wants to send the other message, click on his name to get to his profile page, then click "Send a Message" on the left.

To all: are any of you planning to attending the Westinghouse all-class reunion on the 27th? Have to gone to one before? (hm, maybe those should be poll questions).

It occurred to me that on question #5, there could be a another choice between b and c, for relationships that are no longer cordial but haven't reached the point of estrangement. Maybe the word for that would be "tense."

So you folks who haven't answered yet, when you do, that's another option.
