Belated Xmas present in GD right now......

Ironic that I have the state of Delaware as my avatar and he thinks I'm from California. I know those 2 states very commonly confuse many people. I mean they are both long slim states I could see how someone might see my Delaware profile pic and think I'm from California. I mean there is a Wilmington California somewhere.

Just because one is on the East coast and about the size of some counties in California, hey, anyone could get confused.

If you flip Delaware over and backwards, enlarge it about 150% and paint it a different color, toss in some palm trees and hippies, it totally looks like California. Quit being so mean.

And here I thought it was a citizen's panel per the voters.

I'm wrong again.

and fold the top over a bit and you've got two Rhode Islands.

Or squash it down with a rolling pin and there's Idaho!
