In order to be fair, I realize that I should also post some good things about Minnesota. Now to find out if I can think of nine...
Top Nine Good Things About Minnesota:
9) Fargo, no matter how ludicrously stereotypical the portrayals were, was set in Minnesota, not North Dakota as the title would suggest.
8) A mockery of the shape of our state would be poor at best.
7) The Mississippi River begins here and Leslie Nielson's career ended here (the critically panned sequel 'in spirit' to both Airplane and his generally funny trio of Naked Gun films was Wrongfully Accused, a gag-centric and entirely-bad story of mistrust and mystery in Minnesota).
6) The ultimate symbol of America is here: Mall of America.
5) This state is the origin of both American heroes Hubert Humphrey and Josh Hartnett.
4) The name of our state is ‘water’ in Dakotan, while Dakota is ‘boring’ in Minnesotan.
3) Even though we had a wrestler for governor, we made up for it with a comedian for senator.
2) The women are strong, the men are good looking, and all the children are above average.
1) It was actually warm outside today.
