Funny Friday







Okay....I know I live in Ontario now but I am a Maritimer at heart...being an Islander myself as well as our 2 children (Prince Edward Island, that is!) and Shaun is from New Brunswick. Anyway, I found this funny!!

You know you're a Maritimer when...

1. Your idea of a traffic jam is ten cars waiting to
pass a tractor on the highway.

2."Vacation" means going to Moncton for the weekend.

3. You measure distance in hours.

8. You see people wearing hunting clothes at social events.

9.You install security lights on both your house and garage and go and leave both unlocked.

10. You think of the major food groups as: Meat, Fish and Tim Hortons.

11. You carry jumper cables in your car and your wife knows how to use them.

12. There are seven empty cars running in the parking lot of the Canadian Tire store at any given time.

13. You design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit.

14. Driving is better in the winter because the pot-holes are filled with snow.

15. Your lingerie consists of tube socks and flannel pajamas.

16. You knowall 4 seasons: Almost Winter, Winter, Still Winter andConstruction.

17. It takes three hours to go to the store for one item, even when you're in a hurry because you have to stop and talk to everybody in town.
