1. You could stop in Ohio and buy me a beer.
I don't know that buying me a beer will influence the election, but I do like beer.

6. Does North Dakota count as the Midwest???
if you're driving through here, stop by our Democratic Party offices in Fargo.

BTW, no offence to you Ohioans, but Ohio is NOT the Midwest. Maybe in 1830 it was, but not anymore. It's in the Near-East.

8. Good question
Edited on Sat Sep-11-04 03:26 PM by Tolania
I was once told I talk funny (apparently like they do on "Fargo", but I've lost some of it, and this was when I lived in Washington, DC) and I said I was from the Midwest. The person asked where and when I said North Dakota, he said, "that's not the Midwest, that's the Great Plains"

:shrug:

Edit: The movie, "Fargo"
