You Know You're from South Carolina if:

1. You measure distance in minutes.

2. You've ever had to switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day.

3. You use "fix" as a verb. For example: "I'm fixing to go git somethin ta eat."

4. All the festivals across the state are named after a fruit, vegetable, grain, insect or animal.

5. You know what a "DAWG" is.

6. You carry jumper cables in your car. For your OWN car.

7. You only own five spices: salt, pepper, Texas Pete, Tabasco and Ketchup.

8. The local papers cover national and international news on one page, but require 6 pages for local gossip and motorsports.

9. You think that the first day of deer season is a national holiday.

10. You find 100 degrees Fahrenheit "a bit warm".

11. You know all four seasons: Almost Summer, Summer, still Summer and Christmas.

12. Going to Wal-mart is a favorite past time known as "goin' Wal-martin" or off to "Wally World."

13. You describe the first cool snap (below 70 degrees) as good soup weather.

14 . We don't need no dang Driver's Ed. If our mama says we can drive, we can drive dag-nabbit.

15. You understand these jokes and forward them to your South Carolina friends (and those who just wish they were.)

In April 1975 when driving from Twin Falls, ID to Grand Junction, CO we hit a snow storm before we got to Salt Lake and it was snow and blowing so fiercely that we drove through that large city on I 15 without seeing any buildings. After we got over on the East side of the Continental Divide we did have to turn the AC on.

Nothing quite like intermountain driving in springtime is there Jim? :eek:
