Who Am I Gonna Make Fun of Now?
Looks like the country better step the eff off. Here comes Mississippi.

"DeSoto County has notched another bragging right. It leads the eight-county metropolitan area and exceeds the national average in the number of high school graduates among residents 25 and older."
"A story Sunday by DeSoto Appeal reporter Jimmie Covington reported that 81.6 percent of those 25 and older had at least a high school diploma, according to 2000 census figures. That compares with 80.4 percent nationally. In Shelby County, 80.8 percent of residents 25 and older had at least a high school diploma."
