Good, Bad, and Ugly from Minnesota

The Good:

Not only does the land of 10,000 lakes claim famous musician Bob Dylan, but it's also home to one of the great alternative country acts to ever grace the stage, that being The Jayhawks. Tomorrow the Green Grass (among many other fine efforts) was simply superb, as is the sunset on one of the 10,000.

The Bad:


Kid Cann, notorious Prohibition Era gangster, and his evil twin, the Minnesota Viking... hard for Minnesotans to brag about these two goodfellas.




And the Ugly:


First, there was Governor This, and now there's Senator That.

And because I'm sounding small, I'll spare the Stuart Smalley jokes and any critique on his fine literary efforts like these and this one (oh, and if you go to Amazon.com, be sure to look up the juvenile novel masterpiece Dorkman while you're there - which probably reads just as good or better in Minnesota as in any other state).

Congratulations, Al... and Minnesota... and America.We get what we pay for.Did I pay for this?
