Indiana

Jeff Foxworthy must have lived in Indiana for a while! Here's what he had to say about the Hoosier state.

-If your local Dairy Queen is closed from September through May, you may live in Indiana.
-If someone in a Home Depot store offers you assistance and they don't even work there, you may live in Indiana. 
-If you've worn shorts and a jacket at the same time, you may live in Indiana. (Guilty!)
-If you've had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed a wrong number, you may live in Indiana.
 -If "vacation" means going anywhere south of Fort Wayne for the weekend, you may live in Indiana. (Guilty!)
-If you measure distance in hours, you may live in Indiana. (I do!) 
-If you know several people who have hit a deer more than once, you may live in Indiana. (Yep.)
-If you have switched from 'heat' to 'A/C' in the same day and back again, you may live in Indiana. (Guilty!)
-If you can drive 75 mph through 2 feet of snow during a raging blizzard without flinching, you may live in Indiana. 
-If you install security lights on your house and garage, but leave both doors unlocked, you may live in Indiana. 
-If you carry jumpers in your car and your wife knows how to use them, you may live in Indiana. 
-If you design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit, you may live in Indiana. 
-If the speed limit on the highway is 55 mph -you're going 80 and everybody is passing you, you may live in Indiana. 
-If driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with snow, you may live in Indiana. 
-If you know all 4 seasons: almost winter, winter, still winter and road construction, you may live in Indiana. (Hahaha, that one is SO TRUE)
-If you have more miles on your snow blower than your car, you may live in Indiana. 
-If you find 10 degrees "a little chilly", you may live in Indiana.

These all made me laugh so hard, because they are very true. Especially the heat and A/C one and definitely the 4 seasons. Ha- road construction. I snorted so bad when I read that one. 

So, fellow Hoosiers... do you think it's a pretty accurate picture of the Cross Road State? I do! lol

  1. Cali girl and I've ALWAYS measured distance in hours. Still do. ;) Of course, now everything is "about 20 minutes away"... unless you're talking about "the city" (Seattle - as if it's the only city in the world). That's an hour away.

    Ya know, in cali, DQ was a "special" thing. Up here, where it's COLDER, there is a DQ EVERYWHERE! doesn't feel special anymore.

    Man oh man will snow driving be...interesting! lol
