    Here is what Jeff Foxworthy has to say about Nebraska....

    If your local Dairy Queen is closed from September through May, you live in
    Nebraska.

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

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

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

    If "Vacation" means going anywhere south of GRAND ISLAND for the weekend,
    you live in Nebraska.

    If you measure distance in squares of farm land, you live in Nebraska.

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

    If you have gone from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day and back again, you
    live in Nebraska.

    If you can drive 75 mph through 2 feet of snow during a raging blizzard
    without flinching, you live in Nebraska.

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

    If you carry jumpers in your car and your wife knows how to use them, you
    live in Nebraska.

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

    If the I-80 speed limit is 75 mph -- you're going 90 and everybody is
    passing you, you live in Nebraska..

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

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

    If you have more hours on your snow blower than miles on your car, you live
    in Nebraska.

    If you find 10 degrees "a little chilly", you live in Nebraska.

    If you understand these jokes, and forward them to all your Nebraska friends
    & others, you actually have lived in Nebraska.

    Very good. Funny and complimentary at the same time. I like the 4 seasons.

    I don't know if these came from Foxworthy or not but

    You know you are from Florida if

    ou own at least five pairs of flip flops

    You know someone who's been struck by lightning

    You're more scared of the freaks who live down the street than gators

    Your backyard is sometimes a swamp

    You're officially sick of Disney

    You shrug off hurricane warnings

    You've been permanently blinded by fat men in speedos

    There are only two seasons - hot and hotter

    You've drank a flaming alligator.

    "Down South" means Key West

    "Panhandling" means going to Pensacola.
