I participate in thoughtful discussion of issues on internet boards. My personal problems, or lack thereof, is irrelevant.

Interesting that #20 "4 inches of snow isn't a blizzard, its a flurry."

Uhh...Okay, are we talking about a different southern Illinois? 2 inches is a BIG snowstorm in southern Illinois. The schools and banks shut down, the salt trucks are out 2 days solid, and everyone is driving 3 miles an hour or not getting out of the house.

I love when people append an "LOL" to the end of their statement to try to hide the fact that it made no sense

^ I mean, I realize it's just a list, but at least if the list is trying to show some "we're down home country boys out here" attitude, at least use factual information.

I like:

The climate

Cheap green fees

The Ohio and Mississipi Rivers

Being able to watch Cardinals games on basic cable, without turning my house into a space station.

The KFC buffet in Harrisburg (bigger,better, and cheaper than any KFC buffet anywhere else)

$600 property taxes

No waiting in line most places

I-24, I-57, and I-64

Cave in Rock and the beautiful road that runs from there west to Anna. 146?

Southern Illinois is one of the prettiest parts of my trips when traveling to Ohio, from Texas!
