I've never heard people from the LP of Michigan referred to as mitt monkeys, and I'm from Michigan.  People from the LP of Michigan are "trolls" because they live below the bridge (Mackinaw Bridge).  And yes, I am bored right now.

Where are there all you can eat rib places around Bull Shoals?  I live in Lakeview and have never seen or heard of any... I love ribs....

Also, I never knew of anyone in Michigan that tried to return a "ten center" to another state.  It's the only state in the country that offers a ten cent refund for cans and bottles, and its residents are well aware of it.  

People from Michigan are crazy about beef jerky?  

Would be almost funny if some of the stereotypes were more accurate.

Instead of annoying store owners by "eating all the beef jerky", they should have wrote annoying store owners by trying to buy beer on Sundays.  I have subconsciously tried this several times at Walmart in Arkansas and the clerk at the register always says "your not from around here are you...." Then, I have to take the beer back, while mumbling to myself about dry counties and southern beer laws.  You can buy beer anytime up there and people drink a lot....

I first moved to the south around 11 years ago and my dad asked me if I was moving to a dry county, and I literally had no clue what he was talking about.  When he told me, I responded something like, "what, they can do that? In the United States?  He just laughed.

It's been years but the last time I went to Greers Ferry the county was dry.  I order ribs and beer at the café.  The lady says is near beer okay?  I said yeah, I thought it was some local brew.  Nope, white can of non alcoholic beer.  I asked where to get real beer and she the next county.  And she said if we were going to get some would we get some for her too.

Never been back.

But were the ribs any good?

Nope,par boiled.

We almost got in a fight at Cow Shoals too.  Some guys had lawn chairs in the water and when they wanted a break from fishing they used their chairs to "hold" their spot.  My buddy John walked in to fish when a guy left and his buddy says the chair holds his spot.  John threw the chair up on the gravel and started fishing.  The dude comes back from taking a leak and says 'Hey what's up?".  John told him to F off.  He went and got a few friends and we were all yelling and cussing at each other.   My dad was friends with John Gully for years and I knew him pretty well too.  John came over and broke it up before it got real.  I told my buddy John lets hit the road to the White, this just isn't worth it.

Got a cold beer in Mountain Home and had a good trip.  Never been back.

You can order beer in some restaurants in Heber Springs, but you have to be a member of their "club"....  Weird laws for sure...
