For #TBT or #ThrowBackThursday, this article from the ScLoHo archives circa 2008:
One of the most famous Hoosier’s was the now retired Indiana University Basketball Coach, Bobby Knight. Hoosier is the nickname for the school. But it also refers to people who live in Indiana, the state. You could Google it, but you’ll get multiple answers.

Bonnie sent me Jeff Foxworthy’s list, and I found 13 of them apply to me although some of them occurred when I lived in Michigan:


Forget Rednecks, here is what Jeff Foxworthy has to say about
