I think you'd find a >disproportionate amount of the episodes to be set in the lush Canadian (and >later Southern Californian) forests of West Virginia as well. The lush Canadian West Virginia was a lot more plausible. In fact, one of the strengths of the show was that B.C. outdoor locations could look like lots of places, whereas Southern California looked like... well, Southern California. I also thought the lighting, another long-time strength of THE X-FILES, went all to hell when production moved to SoCal. I guess the key guys were local to the Canadian film industry. In THE X-FILES' defence, their Southern Californian West Virginia was a lot more realistic than MURDER SHE WROTE's Southern Californian West Virginia. I think the latter even had a visible cactus. >>>"I'm just waiting for West Virginia >>>to be partitioned among its neighbors, >>>like Poland." > >Reminds me of an only-in-WV example of hometown politcal incorrectness: the >golf course outside Keyser is to this day actually named "Polish Pines", and >its symbol is an upside-down pine tree.

On our recent trip, we were faced with an apartment complex in Bluewell that had been rechristened "The Blue Whale Apartments." As if that wasn't bad enough, the sign depicted an Orca.

The whole point was to avoid the Pennsylvania Turnpike, which was quite nasty on the outbound trip.

Do you automatically look at any "state puzzle" thing to see if WV is on it, and if it's shaped correctly, and if it's got its own piece? I know Melissa and I do. But for once, it doesn't suck the most to be West Virginia, even if forced to be sans panhandles: I've never seen one of these puzzles that didn't combine at least two of the New England states into one piece, and usually there's a combined Connecticut / Rhode Island / Massachusetts one. Maryland and Delaware also usually get only a combined piece, and no one deals with the Eastern Shore of Virginia. I do remember the Upper Peninsula of Michigan being done correctly on my own puzzle, instead of as an adjunct to the Wisconsin piece, but I'll bet it gets messed up on other puzzles too. Do other countries have these sorts of puzzles?

"I'm a little past it / I'm near enough to be scorched, not blasted." Obviously, being "blasted" is a reference to being nailed by an explosion of schploog. Hitchcock must have gotten a little bit on himself while spanking the capuchin right before he wrote the song. "And things came through the letterbox thick and fast." If this isn't a metaphor for sex, I don't know what it. Mail, usually being white envelopes containing information (as sperm contains genetic data), are surely a symbol for crusty semen. And, unlike real-world postal material, the mail in the song arrives "thick and fast," implying a substance and velocity more akin to a man's sex-juice that pieces of paper stuck gently into a slot. And it's got the fucking word "came" right in the line. "Now there's a butterfly on my face" C'mon. Hitchcock is referencing oral sex, sticking his tongue in the holiest of holies, here. "No, I don't remember falling From a flagpole onto a taxi To leave my imprint and my entrails For you to kiss" And now he's on the receiving end.
