Okay, I figured since I have so many awesome things to say about the state I live in...we should have a thread to name the "awesome" things about our state (do note the quotations, make fun of your state, please).

Illinois, one of the few states that if you do get stranded in the middle...no one can point you north, and the stars don't shine bright enough to point you either...


"Indiana: Gateway to Illinois"

Turns out that Indiana was originally going to be Dante's Tenth Level of Hell.

The people that I encountered in Missouri all called it ice cold coca cola. If that doesn't apply to everybody in the state, ok. I never would have argued that anyway. But yes, I made an assumption based on personal experience. And Branson isn't a small town, its one of the biggest tourist sites in the state. My experience was the same in both locations.
We all had assumed many things in our life. That waht makes us huuman.:smile:

Dude, face facts. You've been had. Admit it.
Admit what? Some facts are wrong. And some are right. Sometime I circumnavigate around the facts and find new facts.

Florida the state where people don't know how to use voting cards or even the machines!

Here is a joke:

Why are all the unemployed in Palm Beach County, Florida sitting on the dock?

An elections official said he needed help to count votes, and they all thought he said he needed help to count boats!

I lived in minnesota for 8 years. My property taxes in those 8 years went up. That's understandable. But 300%? And in 1994 and 1995 I got double taxed. That's because the county I lived in had its administration branch in one city and its collection branch in another city and the two offices had a communication problem. The first year I paid it. The second year I argued it with a lawyer and both my lawyer and myself were escorted out of dakota countys tax office by sheriffs deputies. I made one phone call, sold my home, moved to wisconsin just like the rest of the states exodus and minnesota can kiss my ass!

That is because we live in a one party State. Just two different factions of the same party. Democrats and Republicans? Same to me when they always screw the workerbees.
