OK, so that makes you a pretentious twit. Did "have a go" come out of your UK phrase checker, too? Nice try, troll.

Some of us mouth-breathing Red-Staters ALREADY KNOW HOW TO SPELL and DO NOT NEED ANY DAMNED CHECKER. Keep practising, guv'nor!

You brain dead moron. Spell checkers have NOTHING to do with usage or vernacular!

To quote a famous Brit: "What you lack in intelligence, you more than make up for in stupidity."

Now, why don't you be a good little boy and go take a nap, a dirt nap!

The fact is that America is the sum of its parts. Taking your marbles and running away is the quintessential reaction of a child.

This is gross GDP for 2001 by state. Note, however, that each state Wyoming vs Masschusetts in Mining and oil exploration far outstrips Masschusetts while MA outstrips WY for financial services.

My point is this: Stop acting like a child.
