Default Hey yoopr

I get the meaning of your name now. Holy cow, I never heard of that before. I was watching a bit of the weather channel last nite and she made reference to up state Michigan "yooprs". They didn't go into detail though, where did that come from? What does it mean?

Upper Peninsula...U.P...Yooper.

You should watch the Red/Green show if you want a really good idea of how things work up there. That's how I picture Yoopr, anyway.

Those of us in Wisconsin know that Duct Tape fixes everything, also.

Hey Rev, I didn't even have to see where you were from to know that was a Texas comment :wink: God knows I've got a ton of stuff around here being held together with nothing but a little bailing wire...

I happen to have this photo of Yoopr taking his friend Midnight Flyer
Ice Fishing on the Tahquamenon River. It was a beautiful day. I haven't seen either of them for awhile though.
We had to yell back and forth...as the sound of the Falls kept getting louder.
I went for more beer...but when I got back...they were gone. :?

We did see a cooler flyin' by on the lower river on the way back up.



Nothing was said on the Iron River News about anyone missing a blue cooler,
so I wouldn't know who to ask about where that cooler was headed? ya eh?
