Darndest Things - Again

Ryan and I were talking about some of the states.  Michigan was mentioned and we talked about the fact that we have family that lives there.  Ryan was quietly contemplating...then the following conversation took place:

RYAN:  Why is it again??
MOM:  Why is what again?
RYAN:  Michigan...why is it again?
MOM:  I don't understand...
RYAN:  Why is Mish again???

Oh my!  I really don't have an answer for that.
Anyone??
