Sometimes I read people saying"Up here" or "Down here" I always say "Up Here!".So where are you? Up here or down there?.

Well Mudflap Girl, being as how I'm in NC I guess you could say I'm down here. To you, I'd be down there, and you would be up there to me, down here. Want this to go farther? LOL Have a great day in your neck of the woods. Don

Donald, you're 'up there' to me.... I usually refer to our location as 'down here' however, to Amy Brown, Nev, and the other South Floridians we are still 'up here'...

I guess to you I would be 'down there' and you would be 'up there' I remember when I worked at one sign shop whenever some one was looking for something, he would ask, "anyone seen my brush or whatever?" someone would answer "it's over there" but not point in any direction. It would **** him off and we would all laugh!!

I'm not as far down as some here, but I'm "down, here"...(been that way since someone here, decided there wasn't good enough and landed here, rendering me down and as I'm here, that would equate to "down, here")...

Technically, we are in the Midwest, but we are really closer to the East and we are further North than some....now I'm confused!!

Scientists tell us that Earth's magnetic field changes polarity about every 250,000 years and that we are due for another flip-flop sometime soon. As a result, the magnetic North Pole will then be the South Pole. Isn't that cool! But at that point, there may be no one around to care because, the magnetic field, which extends far out into space, functions as a forcefield to protect us from the deadly solar wind, and at that time it will be down. In other words..... "shields down to 12% captain".......
But I guess, for now, I'm "down here". But since there really is no up or down, maybe I'm over here?

on a related topic, I would tell my 25 year old employee I was trying to schedule a truck install after hours & mention an evening or wekend that the client had available... I'd ask if he was "up for that" ...if so, he always said "yeah, I'm down with that"

I'm "up here" in Prescott, Arizona. Elevation 5,300 ft above sea level. I know it says Cardiff by the Sea on my info. I might change that. I got a letter from my insurance company and for my new address they put "Prescott by the Sea, Arizona. Maybe after Calif. falls into the sea.
