Musta been based on legal immigrants.

USDA seems to think Washington State has 3 counties of low beauty.

It strikes me as ironic that they use a scale from brown for ugly to green for beautiful and then label the dry brown places beautiful and the lush green places ugly...

I'm with Lamp on this one. Where's my torch and pitchfork?

How can Los Angeles be considered more beautiful than some of the most pretty spots in upstate New York?

When I saw 'teachers' I thought I misread it.

I thought they might have based it on tourist activity, but I see Cape Cod is light green average, and that's swarming with tourists.

I couldn't help but notice that 'NYPD Blue' is not on this list. That was the best series finale, second only to 'Breaking Bad', that I've ever seen. It was perfectly fitting.

Heh, Six Feet Under had an excellent finale, but couldn't have a big arrow, because there wasn't enough room above it.

Maybe when they asked people if they liked the 'NYPD Blue' finale, the pollsters got punch by fans disgruntled it was ending.

"I compared the share for each model in, for instance, Alabama with the share of the same of model in the United States and came up with a ratio," says Libby. "Then I basically ranked those ratios within each state. It's an interesting methodology—you're basically able to compare the individual demand of a model in a state with the individual demand at the national level, and see what ways is each state unique from the nation."

"The data does reveal interesting patterns," says Libby. "And because based on registration data from the Department of Motor Vehicles, it's census data. It's not sample based. It's not something where I think it's this, you think it's that. It's hard data. It's irrefutable." In other words: if you're not pleased with your state's unofficial state car, blame your neighbors, not the numbers.

Oddly, I am indeed driving a Mitsu Outlander Sport. I've realized that I want to be driving and old Jeep CJ. How do I make that work?
