(You can play the same game with big stretches of the southwest as well: lots of movies claim to take place in AZ but are filmed anywhere between SoCal and Oklahoma.)
I'm going to disagree with Mark. SD had way more trees because of the Black Hills. ND has shelter belts and some forest around Devils Lake and that's about it.
But the Plains know no border and this landscape stretches way up into Canada.
I was stationed out at Ellsworth AFB, S.D back in 88-94. S.D is a barren waste land. I worked the Missile fields, its a lot of nothing, and most of the trees are scrub bushes in the badlands and Black Hills.
This post made me think about the long long ago - but what if Al Gore was right and the internets was melting the ice caps and polar bears were gaining sentience and SkyNet replaced our NORMAL coffee with Folgers crystals... and... and...(http://www.kgs.ku.edu/Extension/fieldtrips/guidebooks/NWKS/figs/geo.gif) and then I was like "OMG Smokers!" and then Kevin Costner was drinking his own pee and I had to toss my hands way up in the air (and wave them all around like I just don't care).
I'll snag this later. The first one was a lot of fun. Originally shared by Android Central Publisher Paradox Interactive has released Knights of Pen & Paper 2 for Android. Fans of table-top RPGs can once again get the full experience on a mobile device. We got a chance to play an early version of this game in March at GDC 2015, and now Knights of Pen & Paper 2 is available for… #android http://www.androidcentral.com/knights-pen-paper-2-brings-role-playing-and-satire-together-android
Okay, Hotline Miami , killing a dude by dumping a pot full of boiling water on his face? Awesome. I still suck at this game though. I'm not twitchy enough.
I can almost see the blood soaked wood chipper in the distance.
ReplyDeleteThat's in Brainerd, MN, Paul. C'mon.
ReplyDeleteDude it's all the same frozen wasteland.
ReplyDeleteAlso Canada.
ReplyDeleteYeah that looks like Ontario to me. I think I'll be making that drive on the number 3 bypass out to Kingsville in about 2.5 hours.
ReplyDeleteReminiscent of Saskatchewan, only with more topography.
ReplyDeleteJust like South Dakota except N.D has more trees.
ReplyDeleteSee!? I claim vindication.

Oh yeah, Black Hills is gorgeous. Spent a couple weeks hiking around in there.

ReplyDeleteThey always put missile silos in the worst places.
ReplyDeleteBest proximity to Moscow, fewest civilian casualties for a counterstrike.

ReplyDeleteSo to summarize: I can't remember if I took my medication today.
