    Where I was born? That hometown is Southfield. When I lived there the roads were dirt and there was no hospital. I've met a girl my daughter's age who was born there, in the hospital there. The roads are paved now too. I've lived so many places I'm not sure what my hometown really is!

    The hometown I grew up in, and lived in as a married adult for twentysomeodd years is Rison, Arkansas. I have yet to see that town name anywhere else. It was named after a man who was connected with the railroad. Trains travel through town a few times a day, and you can hear the whistle as far away as 5 miles or more. That's how far out of town we lived.
