Mine, I was born and raised in Willmar, MN and now live in Brooklyn Park...suburb of Minneapolis. |

For instance, just last night I counted four people at various times running down the street screaming "I CAN'T TAAKE IT ANYMORE!" Sad really. |

I just couldn't do that to the poor fishys. Let them keep their illusioned existence I say.
Take care. :) |

When the opposing fans threw drinks at the T-wolves, Kevin McHale said the Minnesota fans would never waste good beer like that. Kevin, Bob Dylan, Jeno Paulucci and Vincent Bugliosi are from Hibbing. I'm from Chisholm. Three generations of mine workers until my dad got us out of there. From taconite to titanium. |

Sponsor | | marginalprophet | Jul 3, 2004 12:35am | | String, get a map! Crookston is way over on the western side of MN. Iron Range is on the Duluth side of the state. You southerners just think "up that way" means north. I love youse guys. Pretty soon I'm gonna break out the Ole/Sven Eino/Toivo jokebook. Funny thing is, I recently saw a blonde joke that very closely resembled an Eino/Toivo joke I'd known for 30 years. Now I get it -- Finlanders are blonde! Jorma KAUkonen rocks. |

Sponsor | | othium | Sep 19, 2004 3:50pm | | I used to live in New Hope. Near the City Center Mall, over by the Unique Thrift Store (Wich I hear they are planning to tear down. Boo!). I liked it for a while but ended up moving to St. Paul to be closer to my job. |
