Wrong direction bucko... Minnesota is the direction to go. Growing up in the
magnet district, where Mr. Witt my chemistry teacher is responsible for the
"limit 2" in the top 10 for the state chemistry contests because if 7 of us
went, we'd get 7 of the 10. In MN where when you run out of highschool and
AP courses in 10th grade, they just start sending you to the U of MN part
time. Where the math team not only dominated but created a branch of
mathmatics for "multi-body vectoring for optimal dounut acquisition". Heck
out football team even won state my sr year (i was in the marching band).
It's even close to Canada, for when the Republicans get around to stripping
the alst of the bill of rights away.
Of course with role models like britney 'the slut' spears, things have
probably changed there as much as everywhere else.
P.S. You geeks stay the hell out of my state, you ruin everyplace you go.
Have I mentioned it's COLD, really COLD, year round doncha know. Snow up to
your nose on a slow year, that you have to shovel all the time. Nothing at
all to do but stay inside, not even any mountains to ski on that snow.
Again, to repeat, Minnesota sucks, stay the hell away.
