If that’s his home maybe he’ll finally be able to answer – “Hoosier Mama”?

I don’t get it. Somebody wanna explain? (I’m takin’ the high ground.)

Aces — he’s “Jonesing” on Indiana.

Hence my doggerel.

terre haute is a fine destination if you like the smell of creosote, he should be jonsen’ for bloomington. :)

:) Love it! My dad is from Indiana

maybe he can’t resist the deep fried twinkies, cotton candy and elephant ears served up at the Vigo county fairgrounds

@Arch Stanton – that was my first thought too.

Locals call the capital Indiana, Indianoplace according to a friend who spends time there…

I’m from Indiana and I’m enjoying this. But why Terre Haute? Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid fans?Anyway, everyone up there (and the future down theres) who sad anything about Indiana, you’re 100% correct and completely wrong.

Penny: Hardly obscure; in fact, it is the only laugh here so far. Worth 76 slush pumps.

I don’t get it. Can you help?

Let me refine my question. I know Terre Hatue is in Indiana, but is that the whole joke? By the way, that is where Buffy and Jodie are from.

I thought Buffy was from Sunnydale?

(OK LA originally.)

(OK now I’m very off-topic.)

Indiana Jones goes back home.

I dunno — I thought it was funny!The whole idea of “Indiana Jones” meaning a jones for Indiana had never occurred to me.It’s like having a basketball jones or an ice cream jones… but right, originally, it was something junkies said.I even wrote you guys half a song (one verse and a chorus :) anyway)….and I thought that might help explain it…

But …sigh…. nobody noticed…:(and when I put the link to jonesing, I forgot that people don’t notice a link unless it says “click here.”

Good ones abt Gary, but if they’d used that, anybody who didn’t know that song would think they were making a joke about Indiana missing his lover!And Aces, meant to say good one to your 1st mention of high ground.

Maybe he’s Rose-Hulman alum
