After reading last week's post by Captain Thurston which compared the individual GDP of each state in the union with those of foreign countries, I was displeased to find that Bangladesh indeed has a larger output than Mississippi. I've searched and searched in an effort to disprove this assertion, but from what I've found I believe it to be true.
Although my pride is stinging, I've put together a list of Ten Reasons why my home state is better than Bangladesh. . .
- 10. We grow more cotton and less malaria.
- 9. Mississippi hasn't fought a civil war in 146 years.
- 8. Mississippi is often the most charitable state. Bangladesh? Do you hear those sucking noises?
- 7. Even the poorest Mississippian has a Cadillac.
- 6. Unlike Bangladesh, Mississippi does not harbor British Islamic terrorists. And even if we did, they wouldn't last too long once someone found out.
- 5. Our indigenous music is better and caused a creative revolution.
- 4. We have "cassina" gambling (see Gov. Haley Barbour's pronunciation).
- 3. Bangladesh is surrounded by Communists, Islamofacists and Marxists. Mississippi is surrounded by Coon-asses, Mountain people and Alabama. However, we might trade Alabama for a few commies depending on next year's SEC football season.
- 2. Elvis is from Mississippi and not Bangladesh! Hallelujah baby Jesus!
- 1. And the number one reason Mississippi is better: Bangladesh ain't got no collard greens, black-eyed peas, corn bread, and cracklins'!
