Kids say the darndest things

A friend of ours from California sent us a report that a son of one of their friends wrote about Indiana.

here are some of the quotes:

"Indiana has a lot of unique things that California doesn't. For example Indiana has tornadoes and California doesn't. Indiana has a shore on the Great Lakes. Indiana is flat with 0-500 meters above sea level, it's in the Eastern Time zone, and is only 36,420 sq. miles. Indiana has a really good football team and had citizens that were the proud inventors of the first Raggedy Ann doll. They also have an energy reserve for coal. This makes Indiana such a nice place."

also he describes one of the larger venues in Indiana, the RCA dome formerly known as the Hoosier Dome.

"Come to the great RCA dome (formerly known as the Hoosier Dome) to see the Indianapolis Colts play. If you're a tourist you're probably wondering why you should come. Well, wouldn't it be great to have the camera at the game get a flash of you on TV sitting with 60,000 other fans? How could anyone resist getting a star's autograph? What if a famous game unraveled right before you're eyes? How can anyone resist coming to the RCA dome?"

I couldn't have put it better myself. I have been to the RCA Domo several times, I don't recall any famous games but I have seen the Colts defense unravel in front of my very eyes. I also recall a field goal kicking contest the Colts lost to the Buffalo Bills back around '97. That was back in the dot net go-go days of the 90's when free football tickets were easy to come by for us computer guys.
