This is why Illinois is the best

Here in Illinois we get a lil bit of everything. We have the beautiful Lake Michigan and its fake beaches, we get all four seasons (especially winter), we have the awesome city of Chicago, the calm suburban life, and most of all, miles and miles of sparse farmland and small towns in the middle of nowhere.

I am especially proud to show you this:

Especially the woman starting at 1:56. .....her arms at 2:25 >.< Then she says "That's All Folks" like Porky Pig. So ironic!

Gotta love Illinois.

They actually are quite beautiful, provided that you're not inside one with your limbs being ripped apart.

Lets not get in a fight...
We'll determine it like this. How many states are in the West Coast (actually touch the Pacific Ocean)? How many states are in the East Coast (actually touch the Atlantic Ocean)? The one with more states wins, so the East Coast is better, AND THATS THAT.
