Should I make popcorn for everybody?
Wait, there are buildings in Iowa?
What kind of plants are those? Soybeans?
Doesnât the only person I know from âIowaâ actually go to the Mini Apple when he goes âbackâ? Is Iowa even a real place, or is it made up, like Finland?
When someone asks a question where the answer is a simple affirmative, isnât it always a trick to respond?
If I said my grandparents are from Iowa and I spent a lot of time there, would you think that was just part of the cover-up? Did you know that when we wanted to go on trips to interesting places (besides the farm) we usually wound up driving to Wisconsin or Illinois?
Are those interesting places?
Do I need to do something about my blind spot that covers about 90% of this country?
Well @anon67050589 is in Illinios so that makes it interesting right? Shouldnât you visit the Art Institute give the chance? Donât you want to try a proper deep dish pizza?
Interesting relative to Iowa?
Never done a road trip through the great interior parts?

Have you ever hit a pop-fly in the Field of Dreams?

âBlizzard conditions will develop âŚâŚ with the evening commute a mess.â
Does that sound a bit colloquial, coming from the National Weather Service? Perhaps some are getting tired of winter by now?
I read the book first â was it the first book I ever read in one sitting, or was it Tom Reamyâs Blind Voices? (I think it was the former.)
Isnât the first sentence supposed to be a question â by any stretch of the rules?
