You Know You Live In Alaska...
« on: 2007, June 18, 11:36:47 am »
Forget Rednecks .....here is what Jeff Foxworthy has to say about Alaskans...


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


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


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


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


If you have switched from "heat" to "A/C" (if you even have A/C) in the same day and back again, you may live in Alaska.


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


If you find 10 degrees "a little chilly", you live in Alaska.


If you actually understand these jokes, and forward them to all your Alaskan friends & others, you definitely live in Alaska

It goes from summer to the middle of winter over night, and you and your friends are still out on the front deck in shorts having coffee and breakfast with the neibors. Defently an alaska sight to be seen.

If there is only Duct Tape, WD-40, and a BFH in your toolbox, You may live in Alaska.

Bonus #1: If you know what a BFH is, you've probably been in Alaska more than 5 years.

Bonus #2: If you know WHY you have those three items in your toolbox, you've probably been in Alaska more than 10 years!

Oni---you kinda got two of them right...here's the REAL answer:
If it moves, and it shouldn't...you use Duct tape
If it won't move and it should, you use WD-40
and if all else fails you use the BIG FRICKEN HAMMER!

Bonus #3
Does anyone know (other than me) why they call it WD-40?

I agree!  Only I call it winter, still winter, break-up, and construction.
