Poll question: DU, where ya at? (Geographic Distribution Poll)
There hasn't been one in a while, so what the bloody hell. And remember, this is where you ARE LIVING NOW, not where you come from originally. And yes, my regional classifications will be imperfect, but humor me.

I'm holding it down in the Motor City, which is in the Great Lakes region (not the Midwest or the Rust belt - blecch! :puke:) region.

28. And that's not even including Texas and Arkansas
which, for some reason, are in a separate category with Oklahoma (no longer number one! 45-35! OU sucks! Etc.).

6. Hey! It's "Motown"!
Edited on Sat Oct-11-08 11:09 AM by TahitiNut
:silly: We gave the nation AND the world the music of such artists as Diana Ross and the Supremes, Gladys Knight and the Pips, Marvin Gaye, the Four Tops, Martha and the Vandellas, Smokey Robinson and the Miracles, The Temptations, The Marvelettes, and some of the VERY best music this country produced in the last 50 years.

That's not for nuthin', ya know.

49. Cool! I love Memphis BBQ, Blues, and (of course) B.B.!
We know Memphis and Nashville are both going for Obama - now if we can work on the rest of the state. Or at least get Tuke to replace Alexander (which won't be easy).

24. I'm Illinois but I didn't vote because I am far from being
near the Great Lakes. I am in Heartland country, through and through. Closer to Missouri, Kentucky and such than to the Lakes. I'll just sit this one out because I would feel like I was lying to vote. :shrug:

41. I'm jealous!
I have several friends who live in Portland and surrounding environs, and they say it's beautiful there.

Unfortunately, I'm stuck in Houston due to my job (I work in a chemical plant).
