Officespace and Identity crisis

Viscom hired a new application engineer recently. Aaron Stanford. Very light hearted and fun to talk to. Was a professional football player (so is huge) before he got a engineering degree from Cal state. Is very experienced- 8 years. I pull his leg sometimes. But do that in moderation, don't wanna be beaten up mercilessly :) Usually crack him up at his expense and he calls me a "funny little indian guy".

I have always wondered what is the right answer to the question "where are you from?" There are 3 options. India, Bombay and Clemson. If my answer does not match the domain they were expecting it to be they give me the duhhhh look. If someone is really dumb then they expect the answer to be India. If they are smart and are aware of the world beyond USA then the right answer is Bombay. Nowadays I go with Clemson... has a better strike rate...
