So I'm cleaning my room, and come across some of my Oz Fest stuff. Not the heavy metal concert, but the 3 day party in Central New York (or "upstate" as it's north of Ploughkipse *spits*)

It has people coming in from all over in the thousands, as Chittenango's size doubbles. There's people in costumes, even if only the under 12 set is judged on them. There's panel or two, and some of the actors and actresses that played the Muchkins in the "The Wizard of Oz" comes into town. Heck, you can even ease on down the yellow brick road to Auntie Em's.







And, I'd like to take a moment to say that Westchester County is not in Upstate New York. Thank you.

EDIT: AND MY ROOM IS CLEAN! HUZZAH!

WTF? Who ever claimed it was needs a boot to the head. Upstate New York is home to Mighty Taco, salt potatoes, Andersons, Finger Lakes, Off Beat Cinema, a good chunk of the rust belt, Cellino and Barns until Cellino went to jail, too many Mormon historial sights, Lockport Gambino Ford (Hi Mom!) and my evil HQ of doom. Yes, I count Western New York as Upstate. If any of those played a role in X-Men canon, I would pay more attention to those comics.

::looks up at her comments:: Television has given me a very twisted view of Western New York.

Hey, did you know that Judy Garland's birthplace is in Grand Rapids, MN? They've got a yellow brick road and everything, and a festival every year (last I heard.)
