State quiz from that blue pyramid thing




You're Idaho!

You're a real meat-n-potatoes kind of person, or more accurately, a
potatoes-n-potatoes type. There's little else that captures your attention from sunup to
sundown than farming, eating, or simply admiring the splendor of the tater. Sure, you
stop to see the butterflies once in a while, or to look at rocks, but mostly you just
wish they were potatoes too. Secretly, you hold a stash of potatoes in the cellar for the
time when the government comes to round them up and take them for their nefarious
purposes. You will stop them!

You're the State of Greed!

You were put on earth to make money and by golly, that's what you're
going to do. You remain convinced that everything Adam Smith said is literally true and
somehow believe that your self-interest will make everyone else happier, too. Even if it
doesn't, that's not going to make you lose as much sleep as government regulation might.
Though people warn you that your cutthroat business practices and shady kickbacks may
catch up with you someday, you rest assured knowing that once you've secured a monopoly,
there can be no consequences.

You're Puerto Rico!

While you refuse to pay taxes, you sometimes wonder if the consequences
of this are taking away all of your potential power and influence. But every time you
think about offering to pay taxes, you realize how little cash you have on hand to begin
with. Most of the folks around you look down on you and your state of limbo, but you're
trying to play both sides of the coin to your full advantage. Out of the clear blue sky,
you just became a huge fan of the Montreal Expos.

You're Arkansas!

With a little hope and some small rocks, you can accomplish big things.
In the meantime, though, you could become a highly popular and utterly unremarkable
president of the United States! With aspirations as lofty as these, it's no surprise
that people sometimes think you're mediocre or even forget about your presence. You
also owe them an explanation about how the letter S is sometimes, but not always,
pronounced like a W.

You're Wisconsin!

You are perhaps the cheesiest person alive. You like '80's music, posing
for photographs, fastballs, cartoon cheetahs, and real mice. You want to have a cow,
man. You have been known to do the Forrest Gump shrimp routine with the word "cheese"
replacing "shrimp". Once in a while, beer will supplement your diet of unending cheese.
Deep down, though, you'd prefer to drink fermented cheese.

You're South Dakota!

You have a particular talent for drugs, and may even have been an
apothecary in a past life. Nowadays, of course, the big pharmaceutical companies have
sullied the reputation of your beloved profession, but you still yearn for the walls of
the old soda fountain. Beware of roadside bandits when traversing uneven freeways. Above
all else, remember that your hard-headedness will get you through.

You're Missouri!

An admirer of the works of Mark Twain and the steamboat lifestyle, you
are happiest when floating gently down the river. You have a strong sense of
independence, a reverence for saints, and even look up to discredited explorers. With all
these traditional influences, it's no surprise you're at the center of everyone you know,
and are even considered a gateway to the future. If only you could stop drinking the
world's worst beer, you'd be set.

You're Indiana!

While you feel your life is at a crossroads, you know in the back of your
mind that you're just going around in circles. Going nowhere fast, perhaps. Very very
fast. As long as you don't spin out of control, someone has promised you a bottle of
milk at the end of this run-around. But it all seems so pointless, just spinning and
spinning! Keep your seatbelt securely fastened and watch your speed. Got milk?

You're Arizona!

While you aren't for everyone, no one can deny just how hot you are. Odds
are that you're getting old, and perhaps even prickly, but you can go a long time
without water. Unless you live in a major city, in which case you consume so much water
that the air around you is much more humid than it would be without you. Countless
people yearn to see you every year so they can stare deep into your biggest
scar.

You're Rhode Island!

You are a contradiction in terms and most people like making jokes about
this. If people heard that your inspiration was historically Greek, they simply wouldn't
believe you. You are extremely tiny and indeed, your whole world view is simply small.
You're a tremendous fan of Stephen King novels, yet still somehow maintain faith in a
higher power. You're still working hard to convince everyone that your schools have
nothing against the Board of Education.

You're The Moon!

You frequently take small steps, but you think very highly of each and
every one of them. This aloof attitude doesn't begin to reflect how high and mighty you
actually are, though you are able to reflect light onto others when it seems appropriate.
Whether the glass is half full, half empty, waxing pedantic, or even crescent-shaped is
something ever-changing in your perspective. These mood swings at least follow a
consistent cycle, one that makes others believe you have mystical powers. Ultimately,
your head is always in the clouds and you just can't seem to stay grounded.

You're the District of Columbia!

While you really like to believe you're in control of everything around
you, there is more than meets the eye. In spite of your attendance in several parades
and your almost unending ability to vote, you actually are getting taxed without being
represented! In spite of this shameful double-standard, you are still unendingly loyal
to your country and your flag. You love monuments, memorials, and museums. If you were
a type of berry, you would be a marionberry.

You're the Panama Canal!

While others are content to work long and hard hours, you're all about
taking the shortcut. While this has benefited you for the most part, it has required
starting several conflicts so that you could get your way. Your old profession doesn't
seem terribly lofty to anyone, and sometimes you've even needed to dig ditches to get by,
but you figure the results are worth it. Now, most of the time you're just
cruising.

You're Washington!

Though you were named after some ancient and revered relative, you've
taken off on your own course and are making a new name for yourself. Water dominates
your life, surrounding you on many sides and usually from above. Though you say you
love rain, it's really that you've forgotten that there are other types of weather to
hold an opinion on. You have an amazingly eclectic interest in walls, spokes, yaks,
seats, and even the Olympics. It'll all come out in the wash.

You're Minnesota!

You love hanging out around lakes, even if they're frozen solid. Given
your probable Scandanavian heritage, it all just demonstrates that you're pining for the
fjords. Your obsession with wrestling got a little carried away for a while there, and
this should prompt some serious reflection about the separation of mind and body. It may
be time to celebrate, even throw your hat up in the air. You're going to make it after
all.

Well after the rest of the world had moved on, you were still obsessively

stuck in this traumatic rut, still unable to sleep, you've been able to continue to

You're Nevada!

People are constantly mispronouncing your name, and this has provided you
with a lot of frustration over the years. You prefer silver to gold, sagebrush to trees,
and cards to sporting events. There is almost nothing you aren't willing to lay down a
wager on, and others seek you out for advice on their own wagers. You don't take marriage
terribly seriously, though you are one of its biggest proponents. Far too often these
days, others are mistaking you for an industrial-strength garbage bag.

You're Texas!

A dyed-in-the-wool cowboy, you believe you have everything bigger and
better. While you'll admit that you have more wackos than average and a fair number of
gun-toters, you believe in a liberal application of the death penalty to compensate.
Despite your tough exterior, you have an even tougher interior, keeping yourself running
on a diet of raw beef and crude oil. Unfortunately, most outsiders see you as
representative of not only yourself, but everyone around you. You use the word "y'all"
in every sentence.

You're Tennessee!

A vibrantly musical individual, you probably know how to play multiple
instruments. At the heart of your love for music is the guitar, though you have a soft
spot for violins, which you refuse to call anything but fiddles. Fiddlesticks aside,
you are very thin and have excellent posture. If you ever run for elected office, you
won't even be able to get your hometown to support you. I guess that's why they call it
the blues.

You're California!

In many ways, you are larger than life and almost defy description. You
certainly love to shake, rattle, and roll with the best of them. You have a generally
sunny disposition, but are capable of resorting to harsh extremes when pressed. You are
more likely than most to become rich, or famous, or perhaps both. While you have the
golden touch in so many regards, your respect for actors is a little over-zealous. This
endless faith in actors needs to be terminated.

When people talk about peace in the valley, they often think of you.
After all, you've inspired countless people to traverse rough terrain in search of you
and even think about you when playing popular computer games. Are you really up to all
the hype or are you all wet? You take shelter from the storm beneath trees, felled by

You enjoy contemplating your navel so much that you want to build a whole
school devoted to said purpose. You like Chevy Chase a ton as well, maybe even more than
Cal Ripken since he started doing those Century 21 commercials. Mostly, though, you want
to kick back, watch the ballgame, and eat crabcakes. Brick is by far your favorite
building material. You might even call yourself a brick house.
