Got this in an e-mail from a friend. Hope you enjoy the laugh.
Have a safe and happy New Year!
You Know You're From Michigan...
If you consider it a sport to gather your food by drilling through 18 inches
of ice and sitting there all day hoping that the
food will swim by...... you might live in Michigan.
If you're proud that your region makes the national news 96 nights each year
because Pellston is the coldest
spot in the nation...... you might live in Michigan.
If your local Dairy Queen is closed from November through March......you
might live in Michigan.
If you instinctively walk like a penguin for five months out of the
year......you might live in Michigan.
If someone in a store offers you assistance, and they don't work
there......you might live in Michigan.
If your dad's suntan stops at a line curving around the middle of his
forehead......you might live in Michigan.
If you have worn shorts and a coat at the same time......you might live in
Michigan.
If your town has an equal number of bars and churches......you might live
in Michigan.
If you have had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed a
wrong number......you might live in Michigan.
You know you're a true MICHIGANDER when......
1. "Vacation" means going up north on I-75.
2. You measure distance in hours.
3. You know several people who have hit a deer more than once.
4. You often switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day.
5. You can drive 65 mph through 2 feet of snow during a raging blizzard
without flinching.
6. You see people wearing fall formal wear (camouflage) at social events
(including weddings).
7. You install security lights on your house and garage and leave both
unlocked.
8. You carry jumper cables in your car and your wife knows how to use them.
9. You design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit.
10. Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with
snow.
11. You know all 4 seasons: almost winter, winter, still winter and road
construction.
12. You can identify a southern or eastern accent.
13. Your idea of creative landscaping is a deer "bow target" next to your
blue spruce.
14. You were unaware that there is a legal drinking age.
15. "Down South" to you means going to Wisconsin
16. A Porcupine is something you can eat.
17. Your neighbor throws a party to celebrate his new pole barn.
18. You go out to fish fry every Friday.
19. Your 4th of July picnic was moved indoors due to frost.
20. You have more miles on your snow blower than your car.
21. You find 0 degrees "a little chilly."
22. You drink pop and bake with soda.
23. Your doctor tells you to drink Vernors and you know it's not medicine.
24. You know what a Yooper is and understand the language (eh ?).
25. You think owning a Honda is Un-American.
26. You know that UP is a place, not a direction.
27. You know it's possible to live in a thumb but don't want to.
28. You understand that when visiting Detroit, the best thing to wear is a
Kevlar vest.
29. You actually understand these jokes and you forward them to all your
Michigan friends.
Have a safe and happy New Year!
