Have you or do ever say "MY STATE"? My home state? I have been informed that California is NOT my state. By someone who should know?

Well ya see it's like this.

I was born in Highland Park, Michigan a suburb of DETROIT. I consider Michigan to be MY HOME STATE or where I was born.

I lived in Massachusetts for 5 years and during those 5 years Massachusetts was MY STATE.

At 83 I have lived in California all but 5 of those years. Despite what the outsider says CAlifornia IS MY STATE.

Why he has a problem with it I have no idea nor do I give a fig. Why he has such a problem with is queerly peculiar to me.

I don't know where you live and I don't know if you consider it YOUR state. How do you refer to it? The state where I live? Different strokes for different folks. Imagine getting your shorts in a KNOT because someone says MY about his/her state? What is the world coming to?
