Hi all, made it back. More on B!-Boys-Graceland and Memphis in a day or two. For now all I have the energy for is a bit of fun. . . enjoy
The following list of rules applies to each person
as they enter Idaho. Learn ‘em & remember ‘em.
* Pull up your droopy pants. You look like an idiot.
* Let’s get this straight; it’s called a “gravel
road”. I drive a pickup truck because I need to. No matter how slow you drive, you’re going to get dust on your Lexus. Drive it, park it, or get out of the way.
* They are horses, cattle & sheep and that’s what they
smell like. They smell like money to us. Get
over it. Don’t like it? I-84 goes east and west,
I-95 goes north and south. Pick one.
* So you have a $60,000 dollar car. We’re impressed.
We have quarter-million dollar air conditioned
tractors that we drive 3 weeks a year.
* Yes, every person in every pickup waves. It’s being
friendly. Try to understand the concept.
* If that cell phone rings while a bunch of geese
are coming in, we WILL shoot it out of your hand.
You better hope you don’t have it up to your ear at
the time.
* Yeah, we eat walleye & rainbow trout. You really
want sushi & caviar? It’s available at the corner
bait shop.
* The “Opener” refers to the first day of deer
season. It’s a religious holiday held the closest Saturday to the first of November.
* We open doors for women regardless of age.
* No, there’s no “vegetarian special” on the menu.
Order steak, or you can order the Chef’s Salad and
pick off the 2 pounds of ham & turkey.
* When we set out the spread on a table, there are
three main dishes: meats, vegetables, and breads. We use three spices: salt, pepper, and A-1. Plus Kechup if there are potatoes.
* You bring “coke” into my house, it better be
brown, wet and served over ice.
* You bring “Mary Jane” into my house and she better
be cute, know how to shoot, drive a truck, and have
long hair.
* High School Football is as important here as the
Vikings or the Seattle Seahawks and a dang site more
fun to watch.
* Yeah, we have golf courses. Don’t hit the water
hazards - it spooks the fish.
* Colleges? Try Boise State University. Graduates
come outta there with an education plus a love for
God and country, and they still wave at passing
pickups when they come for the holidays.
* We have more folks per capita in the Navy, Army,
Marines, and Air Force than any other state, so
“Don’t Mess with Idaho.”
If you do, prepare to get your fanny kicked by the
best.
Thanks M3
