- STATE MOTTOS
- Ripped from the Web
-
-
- [DAVE'S FORWARD] All around the world,
- neighboring states and cultures sneer
- at each other with racial and ethnic
- slurs. In America, such State-to-State
- rivalry is lifted to a high artform!
-
- For example, all 12 Universities
- in the Big Twelve (formerly the Big
- Eight) believe with all their hearts
- that Nebraska is their own, private
- arch-rival. Nebraska, for its part,
- thinks the Conference is the Big One!
-
- So here are enough State Slurs to
- guarantee that every LOADSTARite
- residing in the United State will be
- angry once, and chuckling 49 times!
