What A Contrast
 

Here is a picture captured showing what's happened in the midwest now that IAKG has moved ... and a second one showing the people of the NE reacting to her arrival.

I hear, also, that the cornfields are drying out and the crops failing. Oh, woe is us!

A study in contrasts ... if you ask me.






:D :D

dicksbro,

I'm so sorry for you folk! Even the JPEGs are peeling away! :(

And now they are talking about plowing the cornfeilds under

That's right after they burn the crops which have already died for lack of sunshine!

Who's "we," old man? You live in the MidWest. :p

OMG, LMAO @ you all! :)





(Did I mention that I saw it was 94 in Iowa today...and I spent the entire day here not even running the air conditioner?) :D

I’m SO glad you mentioned that. :jump:
That is a subject I’ve LOOOOOOONG had an issue with. :rant:
There may have been some accuracy to that nomenclature from a political statehood prospective, almost two centuries ago, but there is NO geographic, tectonic, or current national political truth to that term. When Illinois became a state in 1818, Ohio was no longer in the “MidWest”, just as it was no longer part of the “Northwest Territory” when it became a state in 1803.

Considering only the continental United States, (from approx. 68° – 125° west longitude) at the extremes, that would make 97° the “middle” of the continent, running down a line near the Red River, (Dakotas east boundary) down to the tip of Texas. At best, it would make Ohio part of the “MidEast”. There is nothing “MID” or “WEST” about Ohio in relationship to the national borders, or the North American continent.:mad:

Thank you for your attention. Please resume perving. :D
