Illinois is the middle word, I imagine you can figure out the rest.

I've always thought of this issue as an age thing. Older boaters could care less what part of the state your from, cuss all's good when your on the river. I'll agree that only Texans like Texans.

I agree with CaverDan. Its pretty seldom that us older folks give a crap about whether the person we're boating with is from the Front Range or them thar hills. After a while you realize that no matter where they're from, the spectrum ranges from real pricks to great folks. The key is to avoid the pricks and surround yourself with folks that have good attitudes.

Also, its not like the "city slickers" we meet here on the river are some kind of stereotypical Noo Joisey types. I've found that folks from the Northeastern concrete jungle I meet on the river, or slopes, are usually trying to get AWAY from that city slicker mentality.

A person's attitude is what's most important. If you've got good attitude, it doesn't matter where you're from.

...unless you're from Texas.

SYOTR,

--Andy

nobody has been called a "doosh-bag" in this thread yet. i live in washington now, so you are all doosh-bags to me, regardless of what side of the slope you are on, and ESPECIALLY if you are from the 505. if you get tired of all that tasty pow, bring your drysuit up this way, dooshbags.

The only people that suck are from Boulder. I am a recruiter for the military now located in Grand Junction, the people up here are so much cooler than those hippies in Boulder. If it were up to me, I would quit blowin' up Iraq and start bombing Granolaville!

Hey ihateboulder - why do you have something you hate as your identity here? You seem to spend a lot of energy thinking about those stinkin hippies and getting yourself worked up....

If you're in GJ also you can update your profile to reflect that. At least Athens has good college football.

SYOTR,

Army recruiters...I've dealt with your kind of scum before. It's a good thing noses don't really grow when you lie. "sure, sure...any MOS you want.." "oh yeah, $20K signing bonus..." "nah, those rumors aren't true, you can get out when your time is up.."
