anthonyking: Scott Brown and I wrote mean (but true) things about every state in the country for GQ.   Things like this: 2. MississippiHoly madre de Cristo, where to begin? Mississippi is our fattest and poorest state. On the other hand, it leads the nation in lynchings and ranks second in infant death. So. Yeah. Mississippi is widely believed by many not to be a state at all, but an especially despondent Faulknerian run-on sentence that everyone quit trying to comprehend a long time ago. Check it out! This is fantastic.
