Hello from the Hoosier State

[gKeith]

Just posting a friendly hello from Indiana!

I'm a new user and descendent of the Keith Clan. I'm on here to find out more about Scottish traditions, make the acquaintance of other folks, and find some help putting together a semi-formal ensemble.

Oh, I'm really excited to learn all about Burns night, as Burns is one of my favourite poets.

If you're anywhere near Indiana, (Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, and I'll even accept Kentucky or Iowa,) let me know about events in your area.

If you have an old kilt or a Prince Charlie you wouldn't mind selling to a graduate student who is going to wear a kilt to his thesis defense, let me know. I posted in the "wanted" section about it.

Greetings from just north of the border. What's your thesis on?

Welcome to here. From NW Indiana. I'm fairly new as well, so I'm afraid I don't have much info for events and such.

Hello gK,

Welcome to XMarks from the other side of the Atlantic in Norfolk, England.

Regards

Chas

Greetings from the unseasonably warm state of Texas.

And a good evening to you all!

Pbutts - my work combines visualization, ethnography, and quantitative analysis of student outcomes. I'm primarily concerned with how horribly students are doing when they change majors in college. Turns out, they're not doing horribly at all.

Llama - NW Indiana? Oh bother... you might as well lie and say you live in Downers Grove. Nobody will ever know the difference!

Chas - hello from the left side of the pond!

Hi & welcome from Worcestershire England

I normally just say "near Chicago" (I do take the train downtown every day, so I spend enough time there) but since you're a fellow Hoosier, I thought I would make the distinction.
