The Garrison Keiller in me thinks it should be “The Above Average Seal of the State of Minnesota.”

    I’d like to know what’s going through their heads. It looks kind of like the moments before a fight.

    Note that the farmer does have his rifle propped up against the tree stump.

    Most of the state seals are similar to Minnesota’s, which means that ours isn’t all that great. “The Typical Seal of the State of Minnesota” would probably be a better description.

    The only state that has a truly great seal is Virginia.

    I think they’re both trying to decide whether he can reach the gun in time.

    I don’t know, Barrett–the old Massachusetts seal certainly wins some hilarity points.
