OK, ok, sure the data was collected pre-K but it's fun to be listed number 1 in something! I wonder why they don't list the bottom 10 states? It seems that if there were a bunch of states in the south that were close to the bottom they wouldn't have any problem identifying them. Maybe it's just me.
Here's the link:

Here's the bottom 10:
42. Rhode Island
43. Massachusetts
44. Ohio
45. Illinois
46. California
47. Indiana
48. Michigan
49. New Jersey
50. Connecticut
51. New York

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

Really interesting that the Red States are happy and liberal cess pools are miserable.

Naturally.
As John Wayne once said: "Life's tough. It's even tougher if you're stupid."

I'm broke, had my worst year income wise since 1986, and I'm happy as can be. I should be qualified for food stamps and all kind of programs desinged to help me.

Ahh, It is better to leave it to question than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Re: Louisiana is THE Happiest State!
Yesterday I was behind a car with an Obama sticker at the light at Jackson and Tchoupitoulas. I was really thinking that guy would roll his window down and give the homeless guy some money but instead he got out of his car, knocked on my driver side window and said to me "You voted for McCain, give this guy some of YOUR money." Unfortunately I don't have any money left so I ran them both over with my SUV and drove to work while talking on my cell phone so I could tell Bam what I just did. He was so proud he sent me flowers.

Re: Louisiana is THE Happiest State!
Good one JAG. My good friend in Austin, an Obama voter and supporter, told me this week he took his Obama sticker off his car. That was a big step for him. there is hope in this world that sanity (and fiscal responsibility) might yet prevail.
Merry Christmas.
