Dave Barry on red and blue states
I am calling upon both sides in the red blue rift to reach out. Maybe we could
have a cultural-exchange program between red and blue states. For example, a
delegation from Texas could go to California and show the Californians how to
do some traditional Texas thing such as castrate a bull using only your teeth,
and then the Californians could show the Texans how to rearrange their
football stadiums in accordance with the principles of feng shui (for openers,
both goalposts should be at the west end of the field). Or maybe New York
and Kentucky could have a college-style "mixer," featuring special "crossover"
hors d'oeuvres such as kosher bagels topped with squirrel parts.
