Jeff Foxworthy on upstate New York
If you consider it a sport to gather your food by drilling through
36 Inches of ice and sitting there all day hoping that the food will swim by,
you might live in Upstate New York.
If you're proud that your region makes the national news 96 nights
each year because Saranac Lake is the coldest spot in the nation, you might live in Upstate New York.
If your local Dairy Queen is closed from September through May, you
might live in Upstate New York.
If you instinctively walk like a penguin for six months out of the year, you might live in Upstate New York.
If your dad's suntan stops at a line curving around the middle of his forehead, you might live in Upstate New York.
If you have worn shorts and a parka at the same time, you might
live in Upstate New York.
If you have had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who
dialed a rong number, you might live in Upstate New York.
YOU KNOW YOU ARE A TRUE UPSTATE NEW YORKER WHEN:
1. "Vacation" means going South past Albany 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 design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit.
7. Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with snow.
8. You know all 4 seasons: almost winter, winter, still winter and road construction.
9. Your idea of creative landscaping is a statue of a deer next to your blue spruce.
10. Down South to you means Albany.
11. Your 4th of July picnic was moved indoors due to frost.
12. You have more miles on your snow blower than your car.
13. You find 0 degrees "a little chilly."
14. You actually understand these jokes, and you forward them to all your Upstate New York friends.
