[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 499347, member: 1246"] [U]You Know When You're From Florida When...............[/U] You have FEMA's number on your speed dialer. You have more than 300 'C' and 'D' batteries in your kitchen drawer. Your pantry contains more than 20 cans of Spaghetti O's. You are thinking of repainting your house to match the plywood covering your windows. When describing your gutted house to a prospective buyer, you say it has three bedrooms, two baths and an open air feel to it. Your SSN isn't a secret, it's written in Sharpie on your arms. You are on a first-name basis with the cashier at Home Depot. You are delighted to pay $3 for a gallon of regular unleaded. The road leading to your house has been declared a No Wake Zone. You decide that your patio furniture looks better on the bottom of the pool. You rationalize helping a friend board up by thinking "It'll only take a gallon of gas to get there and back" Three months ago you couldn't hang a shower curtain; today you can assemble a portable generator by candlelight. You catch a 13-pound red fish... in your house. You consider a "vacation" to stunning Tupelo, Mississippi. At cocktail parties, women are attracted to the guy with the biggest chainsaw. You can rattle off the names of three or more meteorologists who work at the Weather Channel. Someone comes to your door to tell you they found your roof. Your "drive-thru" meal consists of MRE's and bottled water. Relocating to South Dakota does not seem like such a crazy idea. You've been laughed at over the phone by a roofer, fence builder or a tree worker. A battery powered TV is considered a home entertainment center. You don't worry about relatives wanting to visit during the summer. Your child's first words are "hunker down." Having a tree in your living room does not necessarily mean it's Christmas. You go to work early and stay late just to enjoy the air conditioning. [/QUOTE]
