I'm skeptical that those drawings are what the descriptions claim they are.

"I'm skeptical that those drawings are what the descriptions claim they are."

I think you should try that experiment yourself and post the results in the Menagerie...

The 11 Nations of America...



"Yankeedom"
The brains of America. This region has kept the Protestant ethics of its founders, valuing education, sacrificing for the greater good, and intellectual development. However, "many of the other nations... regard the Yankee Utopian streak with trepidation," Woodward writes.

"New Netherland"
This region retains the sophistication and commercial bent its Dutch founders exhibited in the 17th century. "Materialistic, with a profound tolerance for ethnic and religious diversity and an unflinching commitment to the freedom of inquiry and conscience."

"The Midlands"
Politically moderate though somewhat inward looking despite a fair amount of ethnic diversity, the legacy of having been settled by both Germans and English Quakers. "It shares the Yankee belief that society should be organized to benefit ordinary people, though it rejects top-down government intervention."

"Tidewater"
In the South but not of the South. Places a premium on tradition but today is "in decline" as Yankee values have breached through the Mason-Dixon line and have begun trickling into places like Charlotte.

"Deep South"
Rejects all forms of regulation, whether from taxes or through environmental policy, and occasionally shows signs of its historical penchant for restricting liberty.

"Greater Appalachia"
Founded by war-ravaged British subjects, this region has a mercurial set of values, having supported the Union during the Civil War but now favoring conservative ethics.

"El Norte"
Though Spain once controlled the entire Western part of the country, its Latin influence has now been confined to this region. "... norteños have a reputation for being exceptionally independent, self-sufficient, adaptable, and focused on work."

"The Far West"
The conservative west. Developed through large investment in industry, yet where inhabitants continue to "resent" the Eastern interests that initially controlled that investment.

"New France"
A pocket of liberalism nestled in the Deep South, where 18th century Enlightenment values still prevail. "Its people have emerged as down-to-earth, egalitarian, and consensus driven, among the most liberal on the continent."

"The Left Coast"
"A hybrid of Yankee Utopians and Appalachian self-expression and exploration" where farms and i-Pods can live side by side.

"First Nation"
Enjoys de facto independence thanks to its Native American legacy. Yet this often comes at an economic cost.

I love the other guests reaction...

Interesting map, crotch.

I'm comfortable having a foot in the Tidewater and Left Coast camp...

[Bklyn]

I am almost an even blend of Yankeedom, New Netherland and The Midlands...essentially, an amalgam of all my major residences.

Couple in their nineties are both having problems remembering things. During a check-up, the doctor tells them that they're physically okay, but they might want to start writing things down to help them remember ..
Later that night, while watching TV, the old man gets up from his chair. 'Want anything while I'm in the kitchen?' he asks.
'Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?'
'Sure.'
'Don't you think you should write it down so you can remember it?' she asks.
'No, I can remember it.'
'Well, I'd like some strawberries on top, too. Maybe you should write it down, so as not to forget it?'
He says, 'I can remember that. You want a bowl of ice cream with strawberries.'
'I'd also like whipped cream. I'm certain you'll forget that, write it down?' she asks.
Irritated, he says, 'I don't need to write it down, I can remember it! Ice cream with strawberries and whipped cream - I got it, for goodness sake!'
Then he toddles into the kitchen. After about 20 minutes, the old man returns from the kitchen and hands his wife a plate of bacon and eggs. She stares at the plate for a moment.
'Where's my toast?'

Old guy takes his wife to the doctor, after the examination, the doctor tells the guy "It's not good, we've got it narrowed down to either Alzheimers or the AIDS, but we can't be sure which one it is." Old guy says "OMG, that's terrible, what can I do?" Doctor says "Look, when you take her home today, drop her off about 3 blocks from your house. If she finds her way home, DO NOT fuck her"...

The premise of this joke is fantastic. I will be laughing over "we've got it narrowed down to either Alzheimers or the AIDS, but we can't be sure which one it is" all day.
