Here's some "How to know your an Oregonian" (although it fits us both!!) (notice how 98% of them are about the weather!!)


If you've worn shorts and a parka at the same time, you live in Oregon.



If you've had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed
the wrong number, you live in Oregon.



If you measure distance in hours, you live in Oregon.



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



If you have switched from 'heat' to 'A/C' and back again in the same
day, you live in Oregon.


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



If you can drive 75 mph through 2 feet of snow during a raging blizzard
without flinching, you live in Central, Southern or Eastern Oregon.


If you design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit, you
live in Oregon.


If the speed limit on the highway is 55 mph --you're going 80, and
everyone is still passing you, you live in Oregon.



If driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with
snow, you live in Oregon.



If you know all 4 seasons: almost winter, winter, still winter, and road
construction, you live in Oregon.



If you find 10 degrees 'a little chilly', you live in Oregon.
