Excelsior! o.o;

So like...I didn't go to school today. Long story. Work isn't as great as I'd hoped, running out of money fast, and wondering what the fuck I'm doing looking at loan sites online. ;;

But amongst all this I some how start looking up state facts with Matt and...the following conversation ensued.

Chiroay Toraah: Matt Groening is an Oregonian. =D
Chiroay Toraah: And the guy who was the band leader for the Tonight Show when Johnny Carson hosted it.
RemusLycanthe: Ooh.
Chiroay Toraah: Ooo...and the writer of The Wizard of Earthsea (which is being turned in to a miniseries on SciFi).
Chiroay Toraah: And the chick who starred in the TV series The Bionic Woman. o-o
Chiroay Toraah: California's state motto is Eureka. xD
RemusLycanthe: Haha.
RemusLycanthe: I think NY has the most tourist attractions of any state, all consolidated into one island. o_o
Chiroay Toraah: I think so too. o.o
RemusLycanthe: New York was the first state to 1) preserve an historic site (Washington's Headquarters at Newburgh); 2) establish a state park (Niagara Reservation); and 3) declare land "forever wild" (the Adirondack and Catskill forest preserves) in the State Constitution.

RemusLycanthe: Woo. <<;
RemusLycanthe: And this is scary:
RemusLycanthe: New York has a state muffin! The Apple Muffin was created for the Bear Road Elementary School children in North Syracuse, who were instrumental in getting the Governor to sign a bill making it the official State muffin.
Chiroay Toraah: Eesh. New Yorkers did it all.
Chiroay Toraah: ...o-o;
Chiroay Toraah: *scared*
RemusLycanthe: We have a state muffin, how exciting.
RemusLycanthe: http://www.ipl.org/div/kidspace/stateknow/ny2.html
Chiroay Toraah: I saw that.
RemusLycanthe: A MUFFIN.
Chiroay Toraah: Our only claim to fame is our two uinque animals. o.o
RemusLycanthe: For chrissakes.
RemusLycanthe: But we have a MUFFIN.
RemusLycanthe: <<;
Chiroay Toraah: Yeah. You're cool now, Matt. *snort*
RemusLycanthe: Oh yes.
Chiroay Toraah: Two mammals are unique to Oregon - the Camas pocket gopher and the Ashland shrew. <.<
Chiroay Toraah: We're COOLER.
Chiroay Toraah: ...I don't even know where Camas is. xD
RemusLycanthe: o_o;
RemusLycanthe: But do you have a muffin?
RemusLycanthe: Nooooo.
RemusLycanthe: >>;
Chiroay Toraah: ;;
Chiroay Toraah: Screw the muffin. We've got Matt Groening!
RemusLycanthe: We have Michael Jordan, woosh.
Chiroay Toraah: Oh pssh.
Chiroay Toraah: TV is America's pasttime, yehknow. So that automatically makes us cooler.
RemusLycanthe: And Walt Whitman
RemusLycanthe: And Normal Rockwell
RemusLycanthe: *Normal
