There is a lot of bears there, Dan
I know you are traveling Dan but I gotta say, Slog has sucked lately, there aren’t any real time posts about interesting news items of the day, which is what I come to Slog for. Vermont Senate passes gay marriage amendment, people!
@2 Slog just sucks period.
AH! Da U.P., eh? It’s naht sah bad, yeh?
‘Member, Houghton is the same latitude as Seattle.
Merry Equinox!
Ja, da yoo pee. Rough time to be there tho. Been cold on the farm. Hey Treacle, lotsa snow on da Keewenah, hey?
Remember if it looks like Canada, talks like Canada, it IS Canada…
My mother being a “Troll”, I am completely over and without any remorse for the plight of Yoopers and their Yooperness. In fact, I would not be sad if Canada used it as a bomb testing range.
Eh, buddy.
This is your subtle reminder that Michigan is a hipster and would fit right in in Seattle — land of the ironic hats.
Oh god what on earth are you doing there? Don’t tell me you’re going to speak at Lake Superior State Universtiy or Marquette?! Get out now…or at least cross the Mackinaw and stop in Traverse City. Seriously, I’m related to some of those people. No good can come of this Dan.
Am I supposed to know what that is?
(Sault Ste. Marie is alright, for the record)
wait, what?? where are you? marquette??
btw, this is a terrible time of year to go there (i.e. anytime between october and may).
Have fun. Enjoy your cold visit, I’m going to Cabo.
Bring back pasties.
If you’re going to Houghton, ask about the Phallus Palace.
Kelly is a Yooper?
Rutabagas on the pastie, of course, and mayo. I miss you Kelly R, and Keefe is coming!
@10, of course not, it’s a map of part of the U.S., no one expects you to know anything!
Say hi to mom, thanks!
Can’t wait to see you at NMU tomorrow, Dan! Our students need you!
Copper Harbor in the house.
Say yah to da UP, eh?
BB@21: no kiddin’? I did the circle tour a few years ago. Five of the best days of my life, and Copper Harbor to Eagle Harbor was the crown jewel. Though Pictured Rocks was pretty fucking tremendous as well.
Marquette in da house. Mom ‘n grandma are full-blooded Finns. Still have grandpa’s cabin on lake superior.
Too bad Dan’s gonna miss black fly season. That’s a real treat.
Too bad Dan doesn’t drive or else he could experience the joys of the Michigan left.
On a related note, the upper peninsula is also known as the UP, which is also an abbreviation for urethral play, which is sounding, which you referred to last week.
