I don't read or interact with people outside the Internet.” PeopleKnowsSaidStatesInternetPropertyStrangerIndianaSettlersHoosiers Author:Jim Gaffigan
“Even as a child back in Indiana, whenever I took a Butterbelly off the hook I used to ask myself, "Does this fish think?" I would even ask others, "Do you suppose this Butterbelly can think?" And all I would get in reply was a look. At the age of eighteen, I left the state.” ThinkingLooksChildrenDoeStatesAgeUsedAsksLeftFishesHookEighteenIndiana Author:Will Cuppy
