You might be a New Englander!

I'm proud to be a New Englander!!


Forget Rednecks .......here is what Jeff Foxworthy has to say about New Englanders...

If your local Dairy Queen is closed from September through May, you live in New England .

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

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

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

If "Vacation" means going anywhere south of New York City for the weekend, you live in New England .

If you measure distance in hours, you live in New England .

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

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

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

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

If you carry jumpers in your car and your wife knows how to use them, you live in New England .

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

If the speed limit on the highway is 55 mph -- you're going 80 and everybody is passing you, you live in New England .

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

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

If you have more miles on your snow blower than your car, you live in New England .

Pretty good, William:) I have lived in Connecticut all of my life, summers on Martha's Vineyard. Yes, they have a Dairy Queen, too.  Today it is in the low 40's ~ heatwave, no one is wearing a coat!

It's a Good Life!

Or Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan...  Ok, scratch out the ones about driving fast in Wisconsin.  The Troopers there have NO sense of humor about speeding.

I grew up in CT, lived in NH and MA...these are soooo true as well as being funny.

I remember driving a little fast in the snow - no problem, that's what a snowbank is for isn't it?  :)

William, how did I miss this? Born and raised in Mass, lived in Manchester, NH and spent an entire summ-ah in Boothbay Harbor, ME. I'm homesick now and I really want a cup of Dunkin' Donuts coffee!
