What 'State' Are You In?

  Author:  998  Category:(Interesting) Created:(8/11/2024 12:25:00 PM)

So I was just leaving a message for a friend who lives in Arkansas. It struck me (up-side-the-head), that the spelling just seems so odd on some words.  

Arkansas. (Hmmm, is there really an 's' on the end of Arkansa 's?' ???). Someone from Kansas territories (way back yonder, when names were picked out of the pickle barrel), just probably wanted lots of states to have 'Kansas' in the names ... lol. So i guess, the whole word of Kansas would have to be incorporated,  including the aforementioned 's'.

Can you just imagine, Washingkansaston or Calikansas. New Mexikansas and Utkansasah. OK, it just got weird ... lol

 

 

How it changed my life:

None or some. Not sure.

But I digress. Folks here get fussy about the two states Kansas, and Arrr can saw...

If a native Kansan doesn't pronounce Arrr can saw properly ( like Ourkansas) then the fight is on.

...I did a little investigating and learned that "Arkansas" is the Chickasaw
name for that region and, translated into English, means "Run Away Now".

...the name "Arkansas" was also adopted by the Osage tribes
but was taken to meaning "Watch out for that tree".

Now you know.

...from Inertario

...I'm not in any state at all. I'm inert.

  
Date: 8/12/2024 3:37:00 AM  From Authorid: 5940    I think we all need to take Hekler's Master Class Program in deciphering fact from fiction, where else can we learn the fine details of the which way the wind blows our the source of whence it came?

Date: 8/12/2024 7:57:00 AM  From Authorid: 21762    I saw your name and got excited and just wrote a random comment, now that I've actually read it, I am from Flokansasrida

...Hey Larry...if you're interested, I can enroll you in the Genius level
class and, upon graduation, you will be eligible to purchase "solid gold"
sneakers with the school logo for only $299.00 (Chinese funds only)

  
Date: 8/12/2024 1:04:00 PM  From Authorid: 21435    Ginger "L.D." here: So good to read you, lady! I'm here in a region sometimes known as TexMexOkliana. Kronk exists in an "Altered State." Write on....  
Date: 8/12/2024 5:36:00 PM  From Authorid: 5940    Hekler, if I decide to enroll in the genius level class and I do good, do I get an official University type certificate for my $299.00?  
Date: 8/12/2024 5:37:00 PM  From Authorid: 5940    5 Elements of Life, good to see you !  
Date: 8/12/2024 5:42:00 PM  From Authorid: 5940    L.D. and Kronk get around, a lot. So much so that they should receive an honorary degree from Hekler's Master Class in addition to teaching their own MasterClass. The experience is worth the price of admission!  
Date: 8/12/2024 5:42:00 PM  From Authorid: 21435    Yo, dog!

"L.D."---Yes?

kronk---I think that you missed the gist of the post.

"L.D."---That's cute. You know; missed and gist, in the same sentence.

kronk---Thanks. You should have said that we lived in Tex`kansas'as.

"L.D."---Say that 17 times in rapid secession.

kronk---Ugh! Hiya, Ginger!

...and all these years later I find myself failing
with courtesies and lacking in social graces.

Hi Ginger! Always a treat to see you again.

  
Date: 8/13/2024 5:30:00 PM  From Authorid: 5940    ^^^^ Social graces, common courtesy.... isn't that part of your " MasterClass?"
