even now i'm a suburban kid. malls, beaches and led zeppelin as the soundtrack. the upper midwest is a foreign land to me, even as a found out about point special and the minnesota gophers hockey cheerleaders.

to me, high school football is on saturday mornings, even if i never went to the games, halloween is on october 31st, we drink soda, there is no mustard put on fast food burgers, the pizza and bagels are good, and all the people vote democrat :)
