ExiledInIllinois Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 @BringBackFergy loves Wiki maps! This part of Illinois is actually Connecticut's old colonial claim... Probably why all the insurance companies are here... LoL... Look at WNY. Those bastages! Mass Holes even then staked a claim!

I think it was that SOB Roger Williams, they didn't chase, run him off him far enough, like to Jersey. And of course colonial claims were due west following latitude lines I believe Connecticut teamed up w/R.Island to share straight northern border. Connecticut's western colonial claim was actually the Western Reserve in Ohio... Cleveland area before relinquishing it early to the old Northwest territory. But, yeah... So MA can float off easier! LoL... Expand Heard that about CT when I lived there for a few years. They hate Massholes too. 1

Marv's Neighbor Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 It's interesting, and maybe very modern day too. Have to say, born & raised in Buffalo, moved to N VA, then Seattle, then Chicago, then Houston, then back to Seattle then back to Virginia. Can't really say I found any favs. Made it thru a CAT V hurricane in Houston in 83, then a CAT III in Virginia in 2003. Couple of earthquakes and a volcanic eruption while in Seattle. Obviously we all know about the weather stories in Buffalo. Texas and Washington did not have state income tax but they found a whole list of ways to make up for that, so no real advantage there. All things considered, nothing really stands out as a favorite state.
