Ever notice how many people on DU are from Minnesota?

[Haole Girl]

It just seems like a lot. I wonder why? :shrug:

1. "Where all the women are

strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above average." Makes for a good blue state.

Beyond that, I wouldn't have a flippin' clue. Maybe we just need eachother to stay warm at night. :)

2. Minnesota is a hotbed of DUishness.

We can't help ourselves. It's in the water.

[Love Bug]

3. Ya, you betcha!

Or maybe we just don't know when to shut up!

5. Almost aas many Minnesotans as Texans

My aunts, uncles and cousins live in MN, it's a beautiful state. Marrone, it's cold up there though!!!

7. YES.

but I thought I was just imagining it.

8. Alot of former Minnesotans too eh?

Though I have lived in Virginia longer than I lived in Minnesota...Minnesota still feels like my home state!

[Left Is Write]

Similar to Texans, one is never a "former" Minnesotan.

Minnesota will always be my home (of course, I was born and raised there and lived there longer than anywhere else).

11. well, they were the one state that didn't go for Reagan in '84

That or they are bored waiting for it to snow.

[Left Is Write]

14. Yes, I have noticed. The reason I notice....

is that I miss Minnesota desperately! I've been gone six long years (besides once-or-twice-a-year visits).

You can take the girl out of Minnesota, but you can NEVER EVER take the Minnesota out of the girl.

[Deja Q]
