You know you are from Montana if...

Jeff Foxworthy on Montana!!

If you consider it a sport to gather your food by drilling through 18
inches of ice and sitting there all day hoping that the food will swim
by,you might live in Montana.

If you're proud that your region makes the national news 96 nights each
year because Cut Bank is the coldest spot in the nation, you might live
in Montana.

If your local Dairy Queen is closed from November through March,(shoot...let's try May)you might live in Montana.

If you instinctively walk like a penguin for five months out of the year,
you might live in Montana.

If your dad's suntan stops at a line curving around the middle of his
forehead, you might live in Montana.

If you have worn shorts and a parka at the same time, you might live in
Montana.

If your town has an equal number of bars and churches, you might live in
Montana.

If you have had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed
a wrong number, you might live in Montana.

YOU KNOW YOU ARE A TRUE MONTANAN WHEN:

1. "Vacation" means going east or west on I-90 or Highway 2 for the
weekend.
2. You measure distance in hours.
3. You know several people who have hit a deer more than once.
4. You often switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day and back again.
5. You can drive 65 mph through 2 feet of snow during a raging blizzard,
without flinching.
6. You see people wearing camouflage at social events (including
weddings).
7. You install security lights on your house and garage and leave both
unlocked.
8. You carry jumper cables in your car and your girlfriend knows how to
use them.
9. You design your kids' Halloween costumes to fit over a snowsuit.
10. Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with
snow.
11. You know all 4 seasons: almost winter, winter, still winter;and road
construction.
12. Your idea of creative landscaping is a statue of a deer next to your
blue spruce.
13. You were unaware that there is a legal drinking age.
14. Down South to you means Wyoming or Nebraska.
15. A brat is something you eat.
16. Your neighbor throws a party to celebrate his new pole shed.

19. You have more miles on your snow blower than your car.
20. You find 0 degrees "a little chilly."
21. When you know that going to the local mall means the town dump.
22. You can have open containers in your car and not get in trouble. (just switched over to being illegal Oct. 1, 2005).
23. You actually get all of these jokes.


So, the funny part is that I get about 98% of these jokes. It's truly a sureal experience living here. Love/hate relationship for reals...
