I've heard of it, but I can't say that I've ever been there. I was at Northwestern College in Orange City on the wrestling team, but I don't think (maybe I'm wrong) that Waldorf had a wrestling team. I really do miss Iowa, though.

Being Lutheran, I should have known that. Hmmmmmm.

Dawnie, that's not funny. On a trip to LA, a kid asked us if Iowa was the capitol of Nebraska.

On a family road trip from Chicago to Denver, I slept completely through Iowa and Nebraska. So technically, I don't know if they actually exist.

My mom says I didn't miss much.

I-80 in Iowa isn't THAT bad, but there's not much there. In Nebraska, it's horrific! It's been said that the highest point of elevation in Nebraska is an overpass. It's also been said that if you stand on that overpass, on a clear day, you can see the back of your head.

Eastern Iowa has much better landscaping than does western Iowa....I'm from NW Iowa.

LOL Yes it was

When I came from Washington most kids asked if I knew the President.

Now people ask what language and currency we use in Alaska. Or there's my favorite line when I order from a catalog..."We only ship to the United States"

It's a long-standing joke that there are a number of people on both coasts that think that Iowa, Ohio and Idaho are the same state.

And, of course we all know why the trees in southern Iowa all lean to the south.....




Ok Pup, why do the trees lean south. People have a totally wrong idea of what Western Iowa and Missouri look like. The are very hilly and have lots of trees. Rolling hills, not high ones.

LOL Dave

I've often thought that would be easier, but it would ruin the fun of teaching America's children (and uneducated adults) about the purchase of Alaska a few years ago. (And I do enjoy telling them we speak Italian)

We bought Alaska? Does that mean you use US dollars there also?

Isn't Alaska sometimes referred to as "Seward's Folly"? Or am I totally mixing my historic metaphors...?

No, you aren't and it was. Guess Mr. Seward is laughing from the beyond.

Further South than I wanna be.
Cinderella is now 95 years old. After a fulfilling life with the now dead prince, she happily sits upon her rocking chair, watching the world go by from her front porch, with a cat named Bob for companionship.

One sunny afternoon out of nowhere, appeared the fairy godmother.

Cinderella said, "Fairy Godmother, what are you doing here after all these years"?

The fairy godmother replied, "Cinderella, you have lived an exemplary life since I last saw you. Is there anything for which your heart still yearns?"

Cinderella was taken aback, overjoyed, and after some thoughtful consideration, she uttered her first wish: "The prince was wonderful but not much of an investor. I'm living hand to mouth on my disability checks, and I wish I were wealthy beyond comprehension".

Instantly her rocking chair turned into solid gold. Cinderella said, "Ooh, thank you, Fairy Godmother."

The fairy godmother replied, "It is the least that I can do." "What do you want for your second wish?"

Cinderella looked down at her frail body, and said, "I wish I were young and full of the beauty and youth I once had." At once, her wish became reality, and her beautiful young visage returned.

Cinderella felt stirrings inside of her that had been dormant for years.

And then the fairy godmother spoke once more: "You have one more wish; what shall it be?"

Cinderella looks over to the frightened cat in the corner and says, "I wish for you to transform Bob, my old cat, into a kind and handsome young man."

Magically, Bob suddenly underwent so fundamental a change in his biological make-up that, when he stood before her, he was a man so beautiful the likes of him neither she nor the world had ever seen.

The fairy godmother said, "Congratulations, Cinderella, enjoy your new life!" With a blazing shock of bright blue electricity, the fairy godmother was gone as suddenly as she appeared.

For a few eerie moments, Bob and Cinderella looked into each other's eyes. Cinderella sat, breathless, gazing at the most beautiful, stunningly perfect man she had ever seen.

Then Bob walked over to Cinderella, who sat transfixed in her rocking chair, and held her close in his young muscular arms. He leaned in close, blowing her golden hair with his warm breath as he whispered.........

This is officially my favorite line from the list.

BTW - ironic I name my cat Romeo and then have him neutered! Maybe I can wish for something CRA-ish instead.

Did you hear about the Iowa farmer who was out-standing in his field?

About the man who fell into a lens-grinding machine and made a specticle out of himself.
