Minne = water



Minnesota land of 10,000 lakes.
Minneapolis the city of the lakes

Minnehaha Falls is loosely translates as laughing water

Hey, we have a Minnehaha Street in the city I work in. It's not anywhere near water! Go figure. Must have been named named by a transplanted Minnesotaeyoniahonian!

So what does Sota = 10,000?

When DS3 and I were at Black Bustard the other day, I rented HOOT because I'd heard it was a good family flick. DS7 actually tried to read the book last summer, but he got bored with it about 3 chapters in.

It's probabaly named after the poem .. go back and see, I added to that post..

more wikipedia

The word Minnesota comes from the Dakota language name for the Minnesota River: Mnisota.
The root Mni (also spelled mini or minne) means, "water". Mnisota can be translated as sky-tinted water or somewhat clouded water.
Native Americans demonstrated the name to early settlers by dropping milk into water and calling it mnisota.
Many locations in the state have similar names, such as Minnehaha Falls ("waterfall"), Minneiska ("white water"), Minnetonka ("big water"), Minnetrista ("crooked water"), and Minneapolis, which is a combination of mni and polis, the Greek word for "city."

Somebody please tell me that Lynn is NOT going onto the Komen board to antagonize cranky cancer patients?!?!

It sure has been nice knowing her!

So now I know what you REALLY think about us cranky cancer patients! They really do get their shorts tied in a knot sometimes. Just imagine ladies who think they are going to die. Then find out they are probably going to live, only they will be chopped, poisoned & burnt for a year instead. The poison instantly sends them into chemopause with is Menopause x 100! The drugs they are on cause insomnia and they get by on about 3 hours of sleep a day. The other drugs cause severe constipation.

Now imagine trying to tell the above lady that she spells a word wrong!

I will have to strap them to the roof of the Rav, the cat needs her space ya know.

We haven't watched that one yet. The boys were not interested, maybe it looked too girly in the previews?

YOU said they would bite her head off, I never would have known they'd be cranky. Scared out of their minds, yes. Incredibly courageous, yes. And heck, cranky makes perfect sense if you think about it. Better to be mad as hell than curled up in a ball in the corner.

This post just cracked me up! Apparently this lady must have a really ugly bald head, because everyone is trying to buy her a wig.

Hmmmm... Not girly at all, but I wouldn't say it's riveting, either.

Starts off with this new kid in town getting bullied on the school bus by this big bruiser of a kid. Apparently this happens every day. Anyway, this day while he's getting his face mashed into the bus window, he notices a kid running shoeless outside the bus, racing the bus, really. And he's curious about him: Why he's shoeless, why he's not going to school?

When the bus stops to pick up more kids, he fights off the bully by punching him in the face (and knocking him flat!) and makes his way off the bus. He chases after the shoeless kid, but loses him when they run onto a golf course and our hero gets beaned in the head with a flying golf ball.

Actually they are normally very nice and very helpful to anyone that comes on there that is newly diagnosed, has questions, etc... But their fangs and claws tend to come out if they think someone is picking on them or not being sincere. I think being diagnosed with cancer brings out the Warrior in them! I don't think I've ever seen a stronger bunch of women than on there.
