...you may live in North Carolina

Today I went to a tax seminar. The speaker was gracious to occasionally show comics and tell jokes to keep us awake. My favorite was Jeff Foxworthy's take on people who live in North Carolina. So funny. So true!

Here are some that make me laugh:

If someone in a Home Depot store offers you assistance and they don't work there, you may live in North Carolina.

If you are 'fixin' to go anywhere, you may live in North Carolina.

If you've had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed a wrong number, you may live in North Carolina.

If 'Vacation' means going anywhere south of Myrtle Beach for the weekend, you may live in North Carolina.

If you measure distance in hours, you may live in North Carolina.

If you know several people who have hit a deer more than once, you may live in North Carolina.

If you install security lights on your house and garage, but leave both unlocked, you may live in North Carolina.

If you find 60 degrees 'a little chilly', you may live in North Carolina.

If you and all your friends live for basketball season, be it high school, college, or Pro, you may live in North Carolina.

If you know three different recipes for baked beans, and which one to take to a funeral, you may live in North Carolina.

If you think that the tobacco barn out front is part of your home, you may live in North Carolina .

If you actually understand these jokes, and share them with your North Carolina friends and others, you definitely live in North Carolina.
