Minnesota hasn't been too bad lately. Hot in the middle of the day, around 90 some degrees. Was really hot for a streak in May, but now it's good. Just stay inside from about 11 to 3 and keep the windows shut and you'll be fine. Have windows open all night so the house can cool down. ;) Don't venture out expect into the open without bug spray after 7 or so. Hot wind. The farmers have just been haying. The crops are a few inches tall. Summers started.

I live on the "prarie". The cities are too big for me. I like the norwegianess in Minneapolis. And the history. But there's a lot more black and hispanic communities in Minneapolis now. There's lots of people from Somali too.

BTW, there are actually 20,000 lakes here, but that's not the nickname. Did you know that Minnesota has more coastline than Florida and California together?

Yes, but some of those lakes are about the size of my bathtub. :lol: I remember driving to the area around Brainard and being amazed what constitutes a lake there and how little volume there needs to be in order for a body of water to be named. ;) But, coming from a state with about 2 normal sized lakes, I'm in no position to mock anyone. ;)

You're not allowed to leave if you finish early? I am glad I can, I always am the first to finish, and the first to leave, except for the people that turn up and instantly hand it in, they leave after half an hour, which is the minimum time you have to be present.

Aren't those the people who don't know the answers, so they don't even try?

That they are, It often amazes me how some people don't even try, even if you haven't studied, it still pays to at least look at the questions, see what you know and don't know :)

Then again, I have a nack for not showing up at all :confused:

It's those people who finish right away. You can tell who they are. YOU better not be one of them....
