    I'm thinking Azamamagoopipopolis, but I'm probably wrong.

    Did you know any hornbakers from cavalier ? That whole region was a cool place to live but like you said economic opportunities there were slim in the 80s and why I left.
    My pals that worked at steiger were layed off as much as they worked and the only way to make decent money trucking consistently was stay out a month or more .
     
    TB John Thanks this.

    If my ancient memory serves me correctly I went to school with a Dennis Hornbaker. I think he had a sister named Twyla or something like that. Only work when I was a kid was either mowing lawns or going out to hoe sugarbeets with the migrants. The only real industry was the MCI bus plant in Pembina.
    Folks have told me I dodged a bullet not going to Stieger. Sounds like you confirmed that!

    Now hold on just one goldang minute! If I remember correctly, (and I do), I wrote the bio for you, when you were CEO at B**B&*B*, when you were nomitated for "Who's Who in Leasing" award, and I wrote what you told me.That you were born in a remote fishing village, in Scandanavia, to proud, but poor parents. How the family left when you were 6, rowing their 12' fishing boat across the Atlantic, until you landed in New Yoor city. How you survived on anchovies and honeydew melon, until you made it here. How you swung your first lease deal, leasing out your tiny corner of the single bedroom, to the bum on the corner......

    Any of this sound familiar? Need I go on? Was that embellished? Or not?
     
    TB John and Bumper Thank this.

    Weeeeellllll there might have been a little embellishment on a few of the details its HAS been many years between then and now. I will tell you this; I like anchovies on a pizza. Nobody can argue with me on that fact. Also I love freshly made lefse. Try and fight me on that fact
     
    Lonesome and bzinger Thank this.
