If anyone has heard of Nipawin, Tisdale or Carrot River I'll be impressed.
I have a cousin that lives in Melfort

Hmmm well, then i'm safe. I'm not under 30 and i don't go for guys younger than me. Is that mean?

My immediate family (and most of my relatives) come from the Estevan/ Lampman/Frobisher/Alameda area.

I was born and raised in Medicine Hat, however.

It could be possible that you know some of my family, my last name is encoded within my user name. I will give you a hint, it is commonly referred to as, the opposite of black.
Hmm...well I don't think I know any White's from that area...I know a couple White's who went to school in Bawlf though (Jessica and Bobby).

And yeah, Daysland just screams class haha. I've got some friends from there but some of them are just ######ed. Although can't say Forestburg is much better. At Rosalind slo-pitch some of them decided it would be wise to throw a table on top of a tent people were in, and kick in the door of a trailer. Seems as soon as you get into Flagstaff people get ######ed.

White? My last name is Michael Jackson, Flip gets the prize.

I was one of the good guys, lover not a fighter. I could imagine that you may know a McNabb or 2. I can't think of who the a$$heads in Forestburg are these days. I only go there once a year, and I avoid Manyhorses Saloon.

I have been to all three...Even eaten at the cafe in Carrot River...
I will be impressed if you know where Rose Valley and Foston are.
