So annoying when we lose our posts, huh? Here is my nswer for the second time :twisted: That's a good question! I am thinking NY is sort of mid-Atlantic, BUTT if I lived there I would call it New England. Hell, I lived in Pittsburgh and called it New England (just to irritate my VT brother) LOL.

I just discovered that you have to be logged in to vote. :roll:
Went in for surgery for a cyst on my bladder, and they found colon cancer growing on the outside of the colon. Got to have two surgeries at the same time! Stage 3, one node involved.
