ummm, I mean steubenville. I lived mostly acrossed the river in
weirton wv. Small world eh.....

Sure is, Tim..you moved from stupidville to weirdton?

Hahaha, would rather be weird than stupid I guess. My father, grandfather
and uncles all worked for the mills. My father still works for weirton
steel and an uncle works for wheeling-pit. My grandfather worked for
bethany steel then back to weirton steel. I would of stayed there if
there was other types of jobs than coal mining or steeling. It's a dieing
industry there and the education system is just as dead. Fear there maybe
little hope for the ohio valley now' days. I took my family back to ohio
in 1998. We stayed for a year and the only good jobs were in pittsburg...
60 miles away. Just couldn't afford to stay.

That Pretenders tune -Where'd you go Ohio?- comes to mind. g
Yep, the steel industry has really taken it on the chin.
