When...
...you wash your car when its 55 degrees outside..
...your legs are white as Casper in spring, fall, and winter..
..."where y'at? " ..
....you start thinking of moving to Arizona...
....you hate road construction more than going to the dentist...
....you cant stand when people order pineapple or other crap on their pizza...
...you put mustard, relish and onion on your hot dog |

How to tell where you are headed in an airplane:
Say to flight attendent "Get me some coffee"
If on the way to L.A. you will hear, "OHG, we are SOO out that, we have mocha, half-caff, hazelnut, like you know."
If on the way to N.Y. "Get it yourself M.F."
On the way to Chicago "Make Me." |

Chicago is called the windy city because of a politician that talked a lot (i.e. windy). It really was not named for the weather condition. |
