Come on, mono. People see Americans as 'cowboys'. That personification sure didn't come from the NorthEast .

Japher: no one ever speaks about NY State.

I always found it strange that I got better midpriced sushi in chicago than I do here in NYC... the miracle of refrigeration.

I must say the Midwest will get a whole lot more interesting as more Mexicans move in.

It did come from Buffalo Bill, who happened to be based out of New York....

So he robbed banks in NYC? Good to know .

And it was more Billy the Kid than Buffalo Bill.

We have Lake Michigan, its close enough.

I used to sail on Long Island Sound and fish for Blues though, so to me its not quite the same.

I would rather live in Arizona to be honest. It's farkin' cold here!

Really? I always hear New York, or New York City, especially when it is used in the same context as Texas.

Buffalo Bill from New York? BS. His buisness partners maybe. Can you show me your proof?

My biased point of view.

Midwest people are the dudes who were on their way west during the gold rush and just happened to get stuck there.

People on west are dudes who were losers in high school, so they move to seek fresh start and try to be cool

Yeah, you are right, his business partners were from NY. I though he had his main run in NYC (for his show) but it was maily in Europe.

But NYC was responsible for projecting the Cowboy image to the rest of the world through strategic buisness plans and general explotation.

You can at least be happy about that!

Billy the Kid was a wannabe, back-shooting wimp.
