I was curious to see what Google thought of my state, and I was not disappointed. (I had to write a short autobiography for several national competitions, and I was trying to think of Alaskan jokes to slip in there.)

    We have mosquitos the size of B-52 bombers. (Wisconsin's state bird).

    There's an old joke about Minnesota:
    Minnesota's State bird is the loon.
    The State insect is the tick.
    People from Minnesota are loon-a-ticks.

    Don't worry, Sarah. I Googled "Oregonians are" and got the same thing. So they are not singling out you wonderful Alaskans. :-)

    LOL! That has to be a joke cause it made me laugh. Of course it just shows Google isn't really that smart.

    For fun I looked up Wisconsin and we are stupid & friendly. Do you suppose we are friendly because we are too stupid to know better? LOL

    What a cool idea. I am from Pennsylvania. We are dumb, stupid, friendly yankees. Hope other people do their States. Just for fun I typed in "google workers are". Results were arrogant and happy. Glad your in the Gulch Sarah.

    I haven't met an Alaskan that fits Google's description. It would be a great summer Gulch.

    Biochemistry is fun! I try to take courses that interest me outside of school; I recently finished a few on molecular biology, and I started one last night on statistical gene mapping. I hope she does well on her exam!

    Alaskans are bright.
    Alaskans are independent.
    Alaskans are rugged individualists.
    Perhaps that should be our summer Gulch!

    BTW, my older daughter is taking her Biochemistry exam today.
    In four or five years, you'll be next, I hope.

    Could be worse. Google says Arizonans are stupid, rude and racist.

    Considering the source it doesn't surprise me.

    You took the prize from California: the last frontier and all that... I always liked "North to the Future."
