Yes, and in Texas we all have horses, live on a ranch, and wear cowboy hats! So people think.

I'm taking a multicultural course right now and find this discussion very interesting because of the different cultures between states. I can see that it is much more than minority or immigrant status that creates a sense of culture. I can also appreciate how impossible it is to define someone by their culture.

LOL..I think you will find every state that has some kind of joke about it especially told by the neighboring states. When I lived in WV it was KY and OH..Now in Ga it's AL and vice versa on these of course. Funny how we are

This is sooo funny because I grew up in Ohio & WV was the 'joke'. Never could figure out why since so many people were orginally from WV. Small minds always need someone to look down on.

I'm originally from Iowa. Someone asked me what it was like to live without electricity. I don't know. I've never lived without electricity. We even had running water!!!
