I'll go along with all that is said about this beautiful state of ours. It sounds to me like Jeff Foxworthy is jealous and wants to move here to Mi.

I got one...might apply to other states

you know yo're from Michigan if the temperature when you wake up is warmer than the temperature during the day. This one really bugs me, its supposed to be colder when you wake up, not warmer.
