Being from Oregon, it is nice to see something other than Tonya Harding and Bob Packwood jokes.

Did you see they broke a 50-year-old record at the Grand Canyon yesterday with a high of 94 or something rediculous? It's gonna be a hot one. Gonna have to wear shades! xB-) or learn to live like this guy...x}>
Oops, forgot, it was probably not older than you, huh? x:D
Actually, Michigan is a beautiful place, but don't tell anyone before you know it those people from Ohio will want more of it. On second thought, maybe we should give them Detroit.

Do you guys have a similar situation? For instance, I am from Houston, and we think we are the greatest city in TX, and look down on those "Artsy" Austin folks. However, people from Dalls and Ft. Worth think Houstonians are lower class for some reason..and we all pick on San Antonio!
Weird I know..
