Hmm...you know Michigan and Ohio went to war in the 1830s and now they are at war again in this thread (to speak metaphorically).
First, the Toledo War wasn't a real "war."  There was hardly any violence at all (it was simply a border dispute.)  FTR, numerous surveys showed that strip belonged to Michigan, but Jackson and his Democrat cronies robbed us of the land that was rightfully ours.  But we got the UP out of it, so we probably had the better end of that deal.

Second, Michigan and Ohio have been at war ever since Michigan and Ohio State got their own football teams.  Honestly, I never understood why a stupid sports rivalry should cause you to hate a whole state, so although I love the Wolverines, I don't necessarily hate the state of Ohio.  I don't even care that much about OSU.  Plus, my great-grandmother was an Ohio native, and many of her family still live there.

Michigan, birthplace and childhood home of Butch Hartman (my favorite cartoon-creater, who gave me my username)
Somehow, I guessed that.  Guess I'm not the only person on here who is a fan of a Frederator cartoon (albeit a different one.)

Although in fairness, I do love the style of Fairly OddParents.
