Cynical Nation

I'm happy to announce Cynical Nation's inclusion in North State Blogs. As a Tarheel who moved to New York City (and thence to Hoboken) four years ago, I figured I'd be eligible. The requirements, though, were pretty tough:

1) You must be Born in, or now live in, or once lived in, or would like to live in, North Carolina

2) You must not be ashamed to admit to #1

3) When using the term Barbecue, it shall only refer to Pork Barbecue cooked in either the Eastern NC or Lexington Styles. This term shall never be used in reference to chicken, beef, other animals, grilling equipment, and under NO circumstances shall it be used as a term for a backyard cookout.

4) Must update your Blog once a month.

5) The North State Blogs shall never collectively take sides on any disputes between members about which is the best College Basketball team or Nascar Racer. (Individual members are encouraged to take their own stands on this view.)

5) All shall affirm that no other doughnuts can compare to those heavenly creations made hot and fresh at Krispy Kreme.

6) All Must be a fan of the Andy Griffith Show.

Let's see. Check, check, check, check, check, and check. Okay, well that was pretty easy, for me at least. The North State blogroll is posted on my site. Feel free to browse around and support my fellow Carolinians.
