This week, it\'s back to the city. \\xa0Minneapolis Specifically. \\xa0Sorry St. Paul. \\xa0We still love you anyway. This is another longer one! \\xa0Stay with us.
- In case you live under a radio land rock, don\'t feel bad! \\xa0Most of us do. \\xa0RadioLab.\\xa0This American Life.
- Kathryn retracts her statement about General Mills & Pillsburry. \\xa0Croissants/Cheerios forever.
- Tim was right. \\xa0There was nothing out west way back in the day. Nothing at all. (Grand Canyon, Rocky Mountains, Yosemite,\\xa0Sequoias)
- Kathryn has committed the logical fallacy of ignoratio elenchi in her appeal to the natural wonders of the Western US as a means of disproving Tim\'s objectively true point that the population and economic centers of the US resided east of the Mississippi in the 1800s. Please note.
- Tim has committed the social faux pas of Doubebagi Correctingsi. \\xa0Please note.
- Kathryn stinks. Write it down.
- In the Heart of the Beast Puppet and Mask Theater
- Fringe Festival
- "What\'s the skywalk?" you say?
- A descriptive editorial discussing the Somali population in Minneapolis
- Minneapolis was ranked the gayest city in America by Advocate.com. How about that?
- Do you want to compare loads of employment and labor data from Minneapolis / St. Paul with loads of employment and labor data from various other metros around the US? Yes, you do. Of course you do.
- This is also where we learned that Minneapolis is the third most literate city in the US (based on a number of factors, including libraries, bookstores, and newspaper readership).
- An awesome New York Times article from 1890: "Fighting Over The Census - St. Paul Jealous of Minneapolis and Charges Fraud". Those were the days...
- A report filed for the Minnesota Historical Society, Archeology of the Central Minneapolis Riverfront. Way more interesting than it sounds! Also, how could you ever get enough Scott F. Anfinson?
- A graph of flour production, lumber productionand population from the Scott F. Anfinson report. Lumber drops off really sharply on 1920, but we just can\'t figure out why!
