The "Bethesda" in my location is, in fact, Bethesda, Maryland, in the U.S. of A. (Not the sacred pools in Jerusalem.) Originally, I'm from southern New Jersey.

 

 

Edit: About 5 or 6 generations back, a few of my ancestors emigrated to the States (Pennsylvania, to be specific) from Denmark. I think they were fleeing conscription into one of them mid-19th century wars.

I'm lame. My ancestors are all the boring ones - English, Scottish, Irish, German.

I'm from San Jose, which has a pretty mediocre theme song. That's in California, which is a part of Mexico.

From Cuba, currently residing in Florida or as we know it: Latin America 1.1

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*

My wife sometime jokingly refers to herself as Mexican, because her family moved to California back when it was still part of Mexico.

Holy crap, theve were living there before 1848? Were they part of the Gold Rush or something?

Zorro lived there, no?

The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.

The character of Zorro wasnt created until 1919 but yes, the setting was California.

My enduring memory of California was being hard-stopped by the Fruit Police on the border with Nevada. They were suspicious that two English guys in a Grand-Am might be smuggling citrus fruit. The Fruit Police wore hilarious brown uniforms and Russian-style shapka hats (it was nearly thanksgiving and it was cold up there).

 

They were polite, heavily armed and obsessed with fruit. We complied immediately, even though the only food products in the car were a crateful of twinkies and a litre of Uber-Java coffee from a 7-11.

At first I thought you were talking about the UK but then I kept reading.

I was crafted in S. Korea then exported to the USA. It was an equitable exchange.

Still gaming with my 9900k/2080ti/32 ram. One day I suppose a game may inspire me to finally upgrade. Maybe.

In 7th grade, I teach the students how Chuck Norris took down the Roman Empire, so it is good that you are starting early on this curriculum.
