3) Was David Hoskins from Canton? That's where the Detroit IKEA is. :yuck:
1) It snows constantly
2) I've never seen a group of people so proud of how sh*tty their weather is. They also, love, and I mean LOVE, telling you "this snow is nothing! LOL! Our weather is a lot sh*ttier than this!".

how many states have the texas style on ramps? those things befuddle me.
prolly used by 3-4 states total, all in the south. (just a guess, never seen them elsewhere)
Rusty, did you bring all of your recyclables from Missouri to Michigan?

You know, I mentioned doing it, out loud. Had a ton of bottles for recycling, and was all like, "ya know, these wouldn't take up much room on a moving truck". And then I would mention the seinfeld episode to make it seem like a joke.

Will the locals claim today still "isn't that cold?"
My cousin is the Mayor of Holland, Michigan.

My parents rented a trailer just to haul a bunch of "decorative" limestone when they moved from Topeka to Tulsa. The trailer made it almost all the way, but was abandoned after two tires blew and the axle was bent just a few miles from their new home.
What city did you move to? My cousin is the Mayor of Holland, Michigan. Also, it could be interesting if you could openly wear a few of the anti ku, Mu shirts up yonder. Might consider the "rock, chalk, chickenhawk, frack ku and "Muck Fu".
Any talk up there of Wisconsin annexing the upper peninsula? I'm not prepared to name a source at this time, but I am hearing grumblings.
The whole "if you can't drive your car to a part of your own state without being forced to drive through another state, then that part of "your" state really shouldn't be "yours" argument seems to resonate with many Badgers.
My wife always talks about wanting to go visit some island in MI where they eat apples like 24/7 and don't have cars and junk. You should check that out and tell me how crappy it is so I can tell her we can't go.

will do. I figure I might as well do all that stupid touristy crap while I'm up here. Maybe you can pick up the Rusty's on the way and it can be a joint vacay, esp. since bonaroo didn't work out. :dunno:

Everybody I've ever met from Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin, even Iowa loves to brag about how horrible their winters are, whether they still live there or have moved here.
I mean when I went to California I wasn't bragging about how crappy Kansas winters are. :confused:
I know, right? When someone from up North would complain about the heat in KC, I'd be like, "I know, it f*cking sucks, right?".
I specifically asked a coworker if I can call this cold (it's like 8 outside), and he shrugged and said "I suppose" then immediately chimed in with "they cancel school when the wind chill gets below -20!" strange. :dunno:

Rusty, did you bring all of your recyclables from Missouri to Michigan?i don't think you can. they have to have the MI stamp on them. when (mi)Rusty buys soda and stuff in Michigan, it should include the cost upfront.

Might be Mackinac Island:

Mrs. cyclist and I rented 3-speed bicycles and did the eight mile loop around the perimeter of the island. Damn things had coaster brakes and a front basket ! Anyway, a flat easy ride with several historical stops along the way...

great choice by your cousin.
I will always read updates to this thread. The updates will always suck.
Update: It's cold and snowy.
hey chum1, how do apple growers do in southern ohio? prob. too warm, but maybe not. anyways, when you get a chance, pls let me know.
I don't know sh*t about growing apples. I know a tale about a boatload of blueberries grown in Michigan and some pirates outside of Hong Kong, but I don't know sh*t about growing blueberries either. I did stop by a place called the Apple Barn in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee en route to the Alum Cave trail head in The Great Smoky Mountains National Park this past weekend. Overall, I guess what I'm trying to say is that apples are pretty f*cking boring.
I will always read updates to this thread. The updates will always suck.
I did find it humorous that cyclist is a bicycle elitist, though.

Back to recycling. I went to a Michigan game once and was tailgating. I elitely pounded a beer and asked a d00d where the trash can was. He said, just toss it on the ground. I was all, no way d00d I give a hoot and don't pollute. He was all, just do it. So I did and the most amazing thing happened. Out of nowhere, this other d00d swooped in and picked it up. He was like a ballboy at Wimbledon, crazy fast.
the cottage thing is ridic true.
even the poorest boo radley has a cottage somewhere.
my fam has a fam cottage up in Colchester, CN. pretty elite, but didn't bring it up before because I don't like to make other one house in one country having folks.
Did you know that they actually charge you for the bottles when you buy the beer? It's shown on the receipt as a bottle charge seperate from the actual price of beer.

Is it shown on the prices at the store...like, in the cooler is it totalled together or do they just hit you with it at checkout?

see, most people I know with cottages have one that's only an hour or 2 away. NO ONE has one in Canada.

To be fair Colchester is well within 1.5 hours from Detroit.
Don't forget the "Michigan Left"
rusty- I'm wondering if everyone up there is walking around in their fleeces yet, even though it's August and the heat and humidity are likely high. I've noticed that despite some of the best weather in the country, Denverites seem to loathe summer and will walk around in full North Face system of dress during July as if to thumb their nose at young man summer. :confused:

Well, I will admit to wearing a fleece occasionally myself in the summer. Why? Because it's f*cking 55 degrees out in August, that's why. I'm not the type of guy that thinks that will be unnecessarily uncomfortable just because the calendar says it should be warmer.
Overall, the summer has been absolutely gorgeous. It's like that nice week of spring early in May in Kansas, only it lasts for 3 months. BEAUTIFUL weather up here.

I'm not opposed to temperature-appropriate clothing; if it was 55* I'd be wearing fleece as well. But I'm talking about dudes/chicks wearing that crap when it's 100 out. F that.
Good observ. on Manhattan having like 3.5 weeks of truly nice weather the entire year.
How humid is it there? I had to design a cabin here in CO for a Michigan family. They wanted a humidifier in the furnace that would be set to 80%. I told them JFC, do you want mold everywhere? They had no idea....

no. I don't really have any friends here (it's really hard), but mrs. rusty and the offspring make it OK. It's really kind of fun to be completely detached.
Only problem is the cost/vacation of travel to see family/friends/etc.

I'm in the same boat. Driving 9 hours kinda sucks, but I love not seeing my parents whenever they feel like it.

still working on that. only now am I getting around to getting recommendations from coworkers. but we've been travelling a lot this summer.
Do they play the "I'm Jeff Daniels, move your company to Michigan because we suck and will totally worship you if you do" commercials in MI too or just all other states?

It also sucks that so many of your "vacations" are actually just trips back home. People are always having babies and getting married and celebrating Christmas and I'm like "goddammit I want to go to Jamaica".

Just tell them they are all closed that week and when they ask what for just say "terrorists" like it's no big deal and take them to Capital City Brewing Company
"This Five Guys was actually built on the same site as one of the cities most notorious brothels" and crap like that.
