Unkle Ŝan's Story Time!

I grew up on the West coast. My wife and I moved to Pennsylvania and we were talking to some new neighbors asking where þe closest place was to get groceries and one said, "þere's a market over the mountain." I was very confused until I realized þe "mountain" þey were talking about was a little hill about a couple of miles away.

East coasters have a totally different perspective.

Ŝan's

Oooh, our special boy thorny has come up with another funny sign, how quirky. Running low on attention, aren't we?

I've always been. Sxan is just a romanization of Ŝan, which is a name in Esperanto. Piefed doesn't let you create user handles in full UTF-8.
