Minnesota has more shoreline than California, Florida, and Hawaii combined.

i don't care if there really are 10,000 lakes in Minnesota, this can't be true.

plus what qualifies as "shore"? any land touching any water? bogus.

hm, i guess the definition is: the land along the edge of a sea, lake, broad river, etc.

i still call weaksauce

Maybe you're thinking of the word "coast" instead of "shore"? I haven't looked up the exact definition of "coast," but I associate that more with oceans and not lakes, while shore seems fair to use for both (as well as rivers, which Minnesota also has a fair amount of).

yeah i just associate shore with ocean.. but it's clear that shore also includes lakes from the definition.

Liquid Paper is a quick-drying, paper-colored (white) liquid that is painted onto paper to correct printed material. Liquid Paper was invented in 1951 by Bessie Nesmith (1922-1980). It was based on white tempera paint (Nesmith was also an artist). Nesmith was a secretary in Texas, USA, before the time of word processors. She began selling her vastly popular invention, and soon ran the very successful Liquid Paper company. Her son, Michael Nesmith, was a member of the rock group called the Monkees.
