The joke didn't say anything about people from Illinois.

Must have been a typo.

More people need to laugh at this joke.

POISNUS · 12-11-2002, 12:25 AM

I like the joke. On a serious note, I like living here, and wouldn't leave this state (to live anywhere else). Too many cool things to do.

I couldn't agree more. Where else do you have the things we have in Michigan? The Great Lakes, the woods, a major city, the heart of the automobile? No where.

Everybody complains about the winter. Heck, I wish we had more snow so it actually looked like winter. For the people who hate winter don't worry, it'll be 90 degrees and humid soon enough and then you can trade in your snowmobile for a jet-ski. And that is one of the great things about our state.

POISNUS · 12-11-2002, 08:59 PM

I agree. That is part of the attraction, the change of seasons. I think cabin fever (spring), and anticipating winter (fall) are a couple of the coolest seasons.

Football in the fall, and in the Spring, the first time at the track or first cruise down the road in the car are a couple of the coolest things.

That joke would have been just as funny with the balancing side being the UP. Man, I crack myself up sometimes.

Can't knock "God's Country" too much. It is really beautiful up there. The biggest probelm with yoopers is that most of them root for the Green Bay Packers. That's just unnacceptable.
