THIS IS WHAT JEFF FOXWORTHY HAD TO SAY ABOUT IDAHOANS !

If someone in a Home Depot store offers you assistance and they don't work there, you live in Idaho.

If you've worn shorts and a parka at the same time, you live in Idaho.

If you've had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed the wrong number, you live in Idaho.

If "vacation" means going anywhere south of Salt Lake City for the weekend, you live in Idaho.

If you measure distance in hours, you live in Idaho.

If you know several people who have hit a deer more than once, you live in Idaho.

If you have switched from 'heat' to 'A/C' and back again in the same day, you live in Idaho.

If you install security lights on your house and garage but leave both unlocked, you live in Idaho.

If you can drive 75 mph through 2 feet of snow during a raging blizzard without flinching, you live in Idaho.

If you design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit, you live in Idaho.

If the speed limit on the highway is 55 mph --you're going 80, and everyone is still passing you, you live in Idaho.

If driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with snow, you live in Idaho.

If you know all 4 seasons: almost winter, winter, still winter, and road construction, you live in Idaho.

If you find 10 degrees 'a little chilly' you live in Idaho.

If you actually understand these jokes and forward them to all your IDAHO friends, you live in Idaho.:becky:

You know you're from Scotland when....

You know a wide vocabulary of random Scottish words - an idiot is "a numpty". "Aye"- yes. "Aye Right"-not likely. "Atspish"- that's not good. "Auldjin"- someone over 40. "Baltic"-freezing. "bawbag"-useless person. "Dry yer eyes"- aww..diddums."Dry Boak"-sickened. etc

People ask you if the Loch Ness Monster exists or haggis is an animal and you try to spread the myth further by stating it's true. Also You can keep a straight face when explaining about a haggis having its left legs shorter than its right and you can catch them by making them run the wrong way round a hill!

You can quite happily spend a whole day in the pub!

You roll your R's like the Spanish, you say Grrreen or a la Tommy Sheridan -Utter Garrrbage

You are in the USA and are constantly told "I love your accent, it's so....sexy!"

You are in the USA and are asked "Where in Ireland are you from?" "Huh, you Irish-Scotch are so much fun"

You know someone who supports Glasgow Rangers or Celtic. You probably support them too.

If driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with snow, you live in Idaho.

This is also true in Ekaterinburg or the Sverdlovsk Oblast in general

Speaking as an Idahoan, it is difficult to argue with Jeff. Most of this stuff is completely true. Except maybe the potholes; our streets are actually pretty good.
