Wow! I am learning more about you Canucks everyday and today I learned that we are more alike than different. All of those sayings could apply right here in Illinois. You don't suppose we all evloved from the same ancestors do you?

(Oops better not start that evolution discussion here - it's belongs in the Pig Pen!)

Most of those apply to Pennsylvania too.

Did anyone hear that when Canada agreed to help the US in the war, they promised the US their best armies, fastest fighter jets, and biggest ship?

They sent us 5 Mounties, 2 flying squirrels and a rowboat...

Top 10 Reasons to Know You're a Redneck

1. Your dog rides in your truck more than your wife.
2. You wear specific hats to farm sales, livestock auctions, customer appreciation suppers, and vacations.
3. You have ever had to wash off in the backyard with a garden hose before your wife would let you in the house.
4. You've never thrown away a 5-gallon bucket.
5. You can remember the fertilizer rate, seed population, herbicide rate and yields on a farm you rented 10 years ago, but cannot recall your wife's birthday.
6. You have used a velvet leaf plant as toilet paper.
7. You have driven off the road while examining your neighbors crops.
8. You have borrowed gravel from the county road to fill potholes in your driveway.
9. You have buried a dog and cried like a baby.
10. You've used the same knife to make bull calves steers and peel apples.

I didn't know you were from the county Fordfaggiole.
You probably have a ton of potato picking and dumb mainer jokes.


My favorite is that you can't be a true Mainer and graduate from High School.

We have lots of MT sayings but most of them are defamatory towards the natives.

A zamboni is a machine that cleans up ice rinks. I THINK it works by putting warm water on the ice then it smooths it out and cleans up the excess snow. When done you have a nice smooth surface for figure skating or playing hockey.
A snowblower gets snow and blows it so it's off your sidewalk or driveway.

EDIT: Now that I look back at the question and think to myself 'was he being serious? or was he being sarcastic and I wasted my time by answering his question. Oh well...one more post for me!'

He was probably serious. A lot of people haven't heard of a Zamboni machine.

The Zamboni is cool!! At the local ice rink, they have one that looks like a garbage truck.
