Oprah made a movie about it, as did the Disney Channel. Dr. King started a 50 mile march to the Capitol there. Hometown of Ralph "shug" Jordan. A river runs through it

wasn't meant as an insult sir.
i wouldn't say you're "left" by any means, but you don't match the typical suburban, upper-middle class lily white, conservative white kid that i picture comes out of the woodlands for the most part.

Home of Viking Range. It has a few nationally known restaurants (Lusco's being one) and has had two major movies filmed here in the last 5 years.
Outside of that the only notable thing I can think of is it's where the Emmett Till trial was held there.

Yep. The ice field is a mile thick in the middle. Mountain tops (nunataks) barely sticking out. The Devils Paw on the international border is right at 8,500 ft.

In `65 tension was running high at my high school
There was a lot of fights between the black and white
There was nothing you could do
Well, I had a buddy back in '81,
And we made ourselves a pact.
We were headin' for the new pipeline,
We weren't never comin' back.
Well we worked 80 hours making time and a half,
But La Grange was too damn hot.
We drove back home at the end of that week
And we spent it all on pot.
