My Hometahn, 'n'at.

I was born in Pittsburgh and lived there several years before moving to my family's home state of West Virginia. There's nothing like the 'Burgh. One of my favorite sites is "Overheard in Pittsburgh," where people report some of the funny comments they've overheard in and around the Three Rivers.

For example - Overheard in an overcrowded Emergency Room, Presbyterian Hospital, Oakland:

A Patient has just listed his problems for a Doctor, including having a pacemaker, one kidney, and a lung infection:

Doctor: Why do you have the pacemaker?
Patient: Crack.
[…]
Doctor: When was the last time you did crack?
Patient:Today.
Doctor: [clear his throat] Do you smoke?
Patient: No, smoking is bad for you.
