My top 5 states

Recommended Posts

That's a tough one - I mean five.  I have to think in terms of where I'd move to if I didn't have family and friends that make Maryland my best option.

I would be probably be someplace warm that has salt water.

California, Florida, Oregon, Washington, Hawaii.

Why is the UP not it's own state? Why is it not part of Wisconsin? It's attached to Wisconsin it's not attached to lower Michigan.

I need to know.

Shirley the subject must have been covered on that series aboot how state borders came to be as they are.  We need to dig it up, maybe on U-tube!  I(E)nquiring minds want to know!  (What is that the tag line for?  Damn there "breeder" questions!)

OK, that (latter) one was easy.  (Staples!)

OK, this is just plain BIZarre!  They got it as a consolation prize for Toledo?  Who the hell fights a war over Toledo?!

I like the episode where in the 1830s Ohio and Michigan fought a war over Toledo. Ohio lost.

Which is more better, Indiana or Ohio?  In reality, what is the difference?

If only Indy or Parr8 could tell us.  Ohio has pro sports in 3 cities, and Indiana has a couple, too, plus some big car race I think.

I am not that knowledgeable about Indiana, now that I think of it, it could be a lovely place for all I know.
