this was a new one to me, it came up on another list I'm on, in response to "knucklehead". someone mentioned that they had always called Missouri the "Nutbucket State"...

anybody heard this? or used it?

I've always considered nutbucket to be like a nut case. But why Missouri as the Nutbucket State. After all, they lead the country in attracting new industry: "Missouri LOVES companies." Actually I've thought of copyrighting that phrase and leasing it to Missouri.
