Although one of my grandfathers was born in Mississippi during the Civil War, it has never struck me as one of the more livable states. When I consider Mississippi, I think of H.L. Mencken's viscious, but very funny, mid-1920's essay about the South, The Sahara of the Bozart.

I'll grant you this, Mencken's essay on the South is very funny.

In turn, I hope that you will grant me this: Romanticizing the state of Maryland and worshipping Nietzche are not indications of a healthy mind.
