1. You can properly pronounce Corsicana,
Palestine, Decatur, Wichita Falls, San
Antonio, Burnet, Boerne, Nacogdoches,
Mexia, Waco, Amarillo, and Waxahachie.

2. A tornado warning siren is your signal to
go out in the yard and look for a funnel.

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

4. You know that the true value of a parking
space is not determined by the distance
to the door, but by the availability of shade.

5. Stores don't have bags, they have sacks.

6. You see people wear bib overalls at funerals.

7. You measure distance in minutes.

8. Little Smokies are something you
serve only for special occasions.

9. You go to the lake because you
think it is like going to the ocean.

10. You listen to the weather forecast
before picking out an outfit.

11. You know cow-pies are not made of beef.

12. Someone you know has used a football
schedule to plan their wedding date.

13. You have known someone who has had a
belt buckle bigger than your fist.

14. You aren't surprised to find movie rental,
ammunition, and bait all in the same store.

15. Your "place at the lake" has wheels under it.

16. A Mercedes Benz is not a status symbol;
a Ford F350 4x4 is.

17. You know everything goes better
with Ranch dressin'.

18. You learned how to shoot a gun
before you learned how to multiply.

19. You actually understand this and you are
"fixin' to" send it to your friends.

20. Finally, you are 100% Texan if you have
ever heard this conversation:
" You wanna coke?" "Yeah."
"What kind?" "Dr. Pepper."

This should be a constitutional amendment.
ABSOLUTELY NO WEDDINGS WHATSOEVER ON FOOTBALL WEEKENDS (OR JIMMY BUFFETT CONCERT WEEKENDS)!
