Don't pay any attention to beautiful pictures of the legendary Mississippi River or the gorgeous Ozarks. That's just a mirage. Nothing to see here. Move on.

Waterskiing at Lake of the Ozarks, riding the Mark Twain Riverboat in Hannibal, exploring caves...that stuff is so boring.

Disregard the actual statistics that show only St. Louis, Kansas City and Springfield as dangerous places while the rest of the state is very safe. Imagine the worst episode of Cops and forget that most Missouri families live peaceful lives.

Have you heard that Missouri has Six Flags, Worlds of Fun and Silver Dollar City? That's only a rumor. That sound of rollercoasters you hear must be from someplace else.

Forget about meditating about life while the Mississippi River rolls by or chilling while watching a sunset over an old church or barn or one of Missouri's many vast farmland scenes. You'll never find peace here, so forget about it already.
