I am originally from Wisconsin, but Corsair says I got out before the dumb dust could settle... we then moved to Rosemont, Colorado, then to Albuquerque, NM (my dad was a television station tracking manager and had to go where the job dictated and man, in New Mexico, up on Sandia Crest, they had to keep all the stations clear... so at any given time there were ten televisions glowing in the living room. Talk about a child's dream come true). Then we came back up to St. Paul, where my mom was originally from. Corsair is originally from St. Paul, Minnesota, too. He was born and raised in the same house. Now, Corsair and I are in White Bear Township, it's just north of the Twin Cities. We first met in junior high, where I fell in love with him. When we got our small yearbooks I ran home and showed his picture to my mom and asked what she thought of him, "He's cute", she said. I told her, "That's the boy I'm going to marry." And when we were 19 in 1978... we did. (He claims he never had a chance)
And for all you folks out there who think that Minnesotans talk like that stupid characterization of "Sven and Olga"... trust me, we do not. We sound like any news reporter on the National News channels.
Thought du jour: When the chips are down... the buffalo is empty!
