Ironic Teachings has a series of posts about life or lack thereof in Minnesota:
Let's start with the most obvious problem with this state: the cold winters and snow. Look, if you go back and look at the Minnesota calendar of weather, you would see that it is possible that we could have nine months where it snowed. It even snowed in May. IN MAY!!!
The same thought had occured to me when I saw big, sloppy snowflakes plastering my windshield about a week and a half ago. It's May. It's snowing. Blah.
...Minnesotans are cliquey (Remember, they call me a transplant). That's right, they travel in cliques. If you aren't from here, it is very hard to break into the clique.
Totally true. I'm not sure why it's so much more pronounced here, I think it has something to do with the weather and the Scandinavians.
Slanderous Minneapolis. You'll find something funny. Like this. For shame, Chris Conangla, for shame.
SM has an interview with a local TV reporter with a blog..
Obsessed with Exclamation Points!!!!I've just looked at the list of my recent blog entries... and I seem to have a disturbing habit of using an exclamation point every time I write a headline. That's what 10 years in TV news does to you. Everything is shocking!
CCO's weather guy also has a blog. Talk about a buzzkill. (Actually, he has two.)
Last, I'd like to go here, but I suspect it's a little light on the propaganda art. AKA, the interesting stuff.
