Alright Wisconsin, -you're off the hook.
****Warning****

*****Severe ahead*****


I do hereby and forthwith forgive, absolve and hold blameless the entire state of Wisconsin, the cows therein, the bubblers, the potluck suppers, the Packers and all varieties of Wisconsin cheese. (Especially the colby and pepperjack).

See this thread: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=5565822&mesg_id=5565822

I further assert that MrsGrumpy does not in any way suck eggs. Though, being a reasonable and charming person, she can be persuaded to suck down a Denver Omelet or even a big slice of Quiche Lorraine if the invitation is phrased just right.

Also worth mentioning: Michigan is okay. Grosse Pointe has no major flaws. And Minnesota, by oblique reference via it's hotdish suppers, is not a bad place either.

I still think Oprah's a bit too perky, but I'm certain her half-billion dollar income, vast hordes of zealous fans and Stedman will all console her over this minor slight.

Yes, it's true, I can breathe. My condition has been upgraded from hammered shit to just plain shit. There's every reason to believe I will survive the night.


I will now sing the Wisconsin State Song. :hi:

(You might want to stuff Fido's ears for this, it sets off the hounds at a substantial distance.)

On, Wisconsin! On, Wisconsin!
Grand old Badger state!
We, thy loyal sons and daughters
Hail thee good and great.
On, Wisconsin! On, Wisconsin!
Champion of the right.
"Forward," our motto - God
Will give thee might!

8. this is good news...and bad.
the good news is that you're on the mend.

the bad news is that i dumped all my money into Nabisco stock banking on a run on Triscuts when the creeping cheese death pandemic hits. maybe they'll pay me my dividends in oreos.

23. Nooooo, no no no.
At no point did I impune the Pack. That was another poster if you'll note. And she'll have to make her own peace with Wisconsin and it's cheese.

to forgive my little typographical failing, I'll agree to forgive your major lapse in etiquette and personal conduct.

26. And don't forget that Wisconsin created me!
You gotta give mega-props to the state just for that alone.

I'm glad you are over the flu -- I have lived in many places, but have yet to ever be as sick as I can get in Wisconsin.

Just don't ever compliment Illinois (and, as IsIt1984Yet said, pronounce the "S" and call them FIBS).

29. Yes, -that is an excellent point in Wisconsin's favour!
:pals: and I'll keep my disdain for Illinoiz as active as I possibly can in the face of the fact that I do kind of admire Barak Obama.

35. Barak rocks! But remember, he's not a true FIB, he's an African
who moved to FIBland later in life.

And thank you for the compliment, and for the sweetly anglo spelling of favoured, making me feel all comfortable and old-style and wonderfully saville row-ish.
