Synopsis of North Dakota

North Dakota, state in the West North Central United States. It is bounded by Minnesota on the east, South Dakota on the south, and Montana on the west. North of it lies Canada. North Dakota belongs to the vast plains section of the United States, and like other plains states it is predominantly agricultural. Bismarck is the capital of North Dakota. Fargo is the largest city.

Early European residents were originally involved in fur trading, but after wars with Native Americans subsided and railroads were constructed, settlers poured into the state to take up its rich farmland. However, the prairie farmers have not always been successful economically. Political affairs in the state have vividly reflected the farmers' resentments against outside control of wheat prices and against the rates charged for storage and transportation of their grain.

North Dakotans participate in a variety of winter sports. These include skating, sleighing, and tobogganing. Ski trails and tows are being opened at various locations in the state, and the larger cities hold winter sports carnivals. People are also attracted to annual summer pageants depicting historical events associated with North Dakota and to the numerous agricultural fairs in the state. The state's many wildlife refuges (more than any other state) offer bountiful opportunities to observe animals. Bison, antelope, and bighorn sheep can frequently be seen, as can the hundreds of different species of birds that make the state home.

When the region including present-day North Dakota was made a territory of the United States in 1861, it was named for the Dakota people who lived there. Residents chose to retain the name when the territory was divided into north and south states upon admission into the Union on November 2, 1889. North Dakota is the 39th state. The Dakota people are better known as the Sioux, and have given the state one of its several nicknames-the Sioux State. North Dakota is called the Peace Garden State-in reference to the International Peace Garden on the border between North Dakota and Manitoba. Finally, the state is called the Flickertail State, referring to the flickertail ground squirrel common to central North Dakota.

Resolved Question: Anyone know of some alleged haunted and/or historical hotels, inns, motels, etc. in the north western states?

I am taking a road trip from Michigan to Oregon. I'll be stopping in North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, Northern California (Redwood Forest region), then finally Oregon. Does anyone know of some good reputed haunted hotels or inns throughout these states? Any with historical value as well? I would appreciate any help given. Thank you!

Resolved Question: (Here's an old 1 updated) HOW TO SING THE BLUES?

Willys cynical thought for the day; People always say, 'the Blues are simple.' Well, that's true 'the Blues are simple' if you ignore the freaking complexities!' HOW TO SING THE BLUES   1. Most blues begin "woke up this morning."   2. "I got a good woman" is a bad way to begin the blues, unless you stick something nasty in the next line. Like; "I got a good woman with the meanest dog in town."   3. Blues are simple. After you have the first line right, repeat it. Then find something that rhymes. Sort of.   "Got a good woman with the meanest dog in town. He got teeth like Margaret Thatcher and he weighs about 500 pounds."   4. The blues are not about limitless choice. Blues cars are Chevies and Cadillacs. Other acceptable blues transportation is a Greyhound bus or a southbound train. Walkin’ plays a major part in the blues lifestyle. So does fixin’ to die.   6. Teenagers cant sing the blues. Adults sing the blues. Blues adulthood means old enough to get the electric chair if you shoot a man in Memphis.   7. You can have the blues in New York City, but not in Brooklyn or Queens. Hard times in Vermont or North Dakota are just a depression. Chicago, St. Louis and Kansas City are still the best places to have the blues.   8. The following colors do not belong in the blues:    a. violet   b. beige   c. mauve   d. magenta 9. You cant have the blues in an office or a shopping mall, the lighting is wrong.   10. Good places for the Blues:    a. the highway   b. the jailhouse   c. the empty bed   d. the corner of Elm St. & Vine Bad places:    a. Ashrams   b. Gallery openings   c. weekend in the Hamptons   d. on a trip to disney world 11. No one will believe it's the blues if you wear a suit, unless you happen to be an old black man. Especially if you spent the night in the suit and it shows the fruppiness! 12. Do you have the right to sing the blues?    Yes, if:    a. your first name is a southern state, like Georgia   b. you're blind   c. you shot a man in Memphis.   d. you cant be satisfied.   No, if:    a. you were once blind but now can see.   b. you're deaf   c. you have a trust fund.   d. you're a teen-ager it don't matter how many men you kill in Memphis 13. Neither Julio Iglesias nor Barbara Streisand can sing the blues.   14. If you ask for water and your baby gives you gasoline, it's the blues. Other blues beverages are:    a. cheap wine not Chateau whatever b. Irish whiskey or Jack c. Muddy water d. water down-stream from a toxic waste dump Blues beverages are NOT:    a. Any mixed drink   b. Any wine kosher for Passover   c. Yoo Hoo (all flavors)    d. bottles water (Blues people drink from the freaking hose!) 15. If it occurs in a cheap motel or a shotgun shack, it's a blues death. Stabbed in the back by a jealous lover is a blues way to die. So is the electric chair, substance abuse or being denied treatment in an emergency room. It is not a blues death, if you die during a liposuction treatment.   16. Some Blues names for Women   a. Sadie   b. Big Mama   c. Bessie   d. Little Girl 17. Some Blues Names for Men   a. Joe   b. Willy  c. Little Willie   d. Lightning   Persons with names like Sierra or Sequoia will not be permitted to sing the blues no matter how many men they shoot in Memphis.   17B. Other Blues Names (Starter Kit)    a. Name of Physical infirmity (Blind, Cripple, Asthmatic)    b. First name (see above) or name of fruit (Lemon, Lime, Kiwi)    c. Last Name of President (Jefferson, Johnson, Fillmore, etc.)   Okay let me try this; "One-armed tattooed Willy Cantelope Clinton..." Now let me know how that 'rolls off the tongue?' http://www.total-knowledge.com/~willyblues/ From; Willys Jokes archies!
