There's a reason that this is the 1st time that I've ever
posted my drivel to SLJ. ;) 

Reminds me of a story...

A gaigin from FJLIJ and another gaigin from SLJ were sitting
side by side on the Shinkansen. The guy from FJLIJ, being
the friendly type, said: "So, where ya from?" The SLJ guy
said, "From a place where they know better than to use a
preposition at the end of a sentence." The FJLIJ guy sat
quietly for a second and then replied: "So, where ya from,
BITCH?"
