I'm a double fibber, from Iowa and Live in Illinois. I'm sure they don't mind the 4000+ I pay a year towards their education. Does that make me a cheesehead too?
FIB - Real or Not ?

I have a cousin that lives in FIB land and for years when he and his buddies would come up to ride everyone would refer to them, to their faces as the FIB's. Finallly after about 3 or 4 years one of the guys in the group asked what it meant and I told them Fine Illinois Businessman.
The sad part was I rally think they believed me!!
All I can say is the bears still suck!!!!

I'd say John is pretty well converted to yooperism. I'd say there isnt any FIB left in him.

First off Bluff, there is no such thing as a 5+ year Yooper or if there is it would be a 5 yr old that was born "IN" the Yoop. Some say a Yooper is born a Yooper and thats all she wrote. Now, you can reside in the Yoop, but it doesn't necessarily make you a Yooper. And as for the question how long do you remain a FIB after moving from The Land of Lincoln to the U.P.? Some say it takes a 20 year stint as a dedicated year around resident of the great U.P. Some say it's not the question of remaining a FIB, but realizing how to "LIVE" as a Yooper. As a born and bred, legitimate Yooper, I prefer the latter.

There is a certain bar in a Bergland that sells FIB shirts. The FIB on dem shirts reads: Fantastic in Bed or Finally in Bergland. Pretty funny I think. I like the shirt that has all the different positions.
I happen to know a couple people from ILL. Two as good freinds - great people.
The more people up here the better for our economy.
I moved here from northern wisconsin around six years ago myself. I say if you love it UP here and you can make a living and pay taxes here that makes you a Yooper.
P.S. thanks Tom for the funny shirts.

That one is easy, any piece of property that says no tresspassing on it. What is the first thing a FIB unpacks when he moves to gods country? The NO TRESSPASSING signs. LOL.
