I was born out of my mother's vagina.  It never occurred to me to try to get back in.

That would be 'In Through The Out Door', something which is midly amusing if played in supermarkets.  :bowler:

So your legal name is Viking Helgasdottir?  :lol:

I got that fixed, but I have a letter from the embassy attached to my birth certificate... fortunately for me both my grandfathers had the same name so it isn't really complicated.

He's one of those weird Icelanders, just nod and wave him thru, otherwise it can turn into a real saga as he explains his linaage back 23 generations.

Where were your born; have you ever been back to the place ?

...

So what part if any has you're place of birth played in your life following your birth ?

Sure, I've been back; it was the biggest hospital anywhere near where I grew up.  What role has it played?  Sweet fuck-all, other than showing up for others being born or dying.

I'm named after both my grandfathers, so the name on the birth certificate is

I was born in St Louis Missouri, no idea which hospital I was too young to remember.  My mom's side of the family is still there so I have been back many times, used to be every summer growing up, now just for weddings and funerals.

The only impact has been my choice in pro sports teams.

I was born in a hospital and I've been there dozens of times.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

The top levels are new. not sure why they changed the motif. makes the building look weird.

Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula.  It was named something different back then, Monterey General Hospital or something.  Lots of trees there.

I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

My family is in South St Louis County and have lived there as long as I can remember.  My cousins went to Oakville High School.

Yes many times though not to the hospital.

St. David's Hospital in Downtown Austin.  I have been in a couple times since and I drive by it twice a day to and from work.
