Things I Learned in the Land of the Golden Gophers
In the Twin Cities for a few days for work.
1. The Big Ten, them likes the football.
2. Normal room temperature in Minnesota is colder than in Chicago.
3. Does Target own this town? I mean towns?
4. The Walker Art Center is a great contemporary art museum. And all kinds of people go there, at least on Free First Saturdays.
5. They really do say "you bet" and "alrighty" and they call me "dear."
Late breaking update: 6. If it wasn't already clear from #5, Minnesota Nice is a fact. Where else would a TSA employee at the airport rush twenty feet out of her way to pick up (for me) the loose change I spilled, which rolled far from my grasp?
