It is common for children in the United States to count "One-Mississippi, two-Mississippi" during informal football games and hide and seek to approximate counting by seconds.

"One-Mississippi, two-Mississippi, three-Mississippi..."

mississippi

*The Hospitality State* that receives the most unjust flack for being racist, backwoods, sub-par, uneducated, redneck, illiterate, etc., when in fact it is beautiful, flourishing, friendly, and bubbling with culture and history -- much more than most people realize... Not to mention the talent that has sprung from Mississippi, especially for a small state (Sela Ward, Faith Hill, Oprah Winfrey, Elvis Presley, Brett Favre, Jimmy Buffett, Morgan Freeman, William Faulkner, Jim Henson, Walter Payton, Robert Johnson, B.B. King, Muddy Waters, Conway Twitty, Tammy Wynette, Trent Lott, Jefferson Davis, James Earl Jones, Peyton Manning, Eli Manning, Archie Manning, Jerry Rice, Tennessee Williams, Eudora Welty, and LeeAnn Rimes, just to name a few...)

As a born & bred Mississippian who is very well-traveled all over the world (AND well-educated -- I can even do much more than just read -- gasp!), I would never choose live anywhere else!!!

Despite the ignorance of people who go by the stereotypes often attributed to Mississippi, it often does not receive the credit it deserves.

To all of the people who think Mississippi is a bad state.

Mississippi is not full of just rednecks and whatever else you call us. We arn't racist. We get along just like any other state would. Just because we go mud riding, have parties every weekend, cookouts, and like to hang out with friends around town, doesn't mean we have nothing better to do; that's just how we have fun. We arn't uneducated either. Just because we don't have the best schools doesn't mean we're stupid. And for those of you who don't like the word "ya'll", I'm sorry. People just say that down here.

I've lived here for 8 years and love it. I would never say anything bad about it no matter what. So to all of you people who live in Washington or Vermont, shut up. If you've never been to the state don't post a definition about Mississippi.

Mississippi is my home. I love it.
