 Posted Jun 20, 2001 by elwood Go back through the New York lesson, but, read only the translations while pinching your nostrils shut. Thus achieving our unique nasally tone caused by too much winter and deveated septums.

 Posted Jun 21, 2001 by elwood If you get all of Long Island to pinch their nostrils while talking we can declare it part of Michigan and annex it. Of course we would have to connect it to the mainland because we only have peninsulas here!

Don't connect us to the mainland! What we do on lovely summer days if we couldn't spend hours and hours waiting to drive over the bridges?
And if you pinched shut the nostrils of Long Islanders, we'd all drop from asphyxiation. We don't shut up long enough to take a breath ...

 Posted Jun 21, 2001 by elwood Wow! Bonus points for using asphyxiation. You wouldn't make it here in Michigan after all (too smart for us). We would have said "cannd bread wid my node plugged"
Though you might fill all your extra time, from not waiting on bridges, by swatting at the gazillion mosquittos. It's our state pastime. (Maybe I should write a better Guide entry for Michigan, the existing one is lame).

I be college edjumakated, elwood!
They've started spraying again for the stupid mosquitoes. We have the big West Nile Virus scare going strong again this year.
You should write a guide entry about Michigan! Have you ever met Gook? He's from Michigan, too! http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/U148521

 Posted Jun 22, 2001 by elwood I've had a Long Island Ice Tea scare before. It involves the room spinning, a vicious headache... (oh I shouldn't go into the rest I've never been moderated and would like to keep my record clean)

 Posted Jun 22, 2001 by Shea the Sarcastic: Play Ball! Then you shouldn't have gotten into the Long Island Iced Tea in the first place! One too many of those, and very little is kept clean!
