Whatever floats your boat...

Well its summer and this email will circulate several times during the next few months. Its hysterical, why? Cause its true.

Jeff Foxworthy on Illinois :

If your last governor is headed for prison and the governor before him is already there,

You might live in Illinois .

If your latest US Senator lied to get the job,

You might live in Illinois ..

If your local Dairy Queen is closed from November through March,

You might live in Illinois ...

If someone in a store offers you assistance & they don't work there,

You might live in Illinois .

If your dad's suntan stops at a line curving around the middle of his forehead,

You might live in Illinois ...

If you have ever worn shorts and a parka at the same time,

You might live in Illinois .

If your town has an equal number of bars and churches,

You might live in Illinois .

If you have had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed a wrong number,

You might live in Illinois .
