This may surprise you, but in Iowa we think of Nebraska as that really flat state with no people.

Hey, Spence -
Aren't people who hail from Iowa called "Hoovers" ?
I thought that's what I remembered about it anyway...
I was going to go to grad school at Ames - decided not to, too much dirt and not enough water for me. That was more than a few years ago - probably don't have much more water now, I would guess.

Iowa is actually the hawkeye state.. but corn husker sounds sort of derogitory.. I mean, if RI's state motto was 'the clam shuckers' I dont think i would live here.
I'm more about 'the show me' state

Hey, as far as I'm concerned I'd be proud to be associated with that noble mollusk as a motto - and a state mascot too for that matter.
It's like we used to say, there's only 2 things that come from Rhode Island - queers and quahogs.
And I don't see any shells on your back, ya big bi-valve

Generally speaking the Squaw Creek which runs through the center of town is about 15-20' wide and 3' deep, so no, there's not a lot of water.
Although in 1993 when I was in school the Squaw Creek got a tad bigger. 500 year floods...
