[QUOTE="Crowderfarms, post: 78880, member: 1335"] COUNTRY RULES In an effort to help outsiders understand the rules of the Country mind, the following list will be handed to each person as they enter a Country area.. (These actually should be the rules in all states.) 1. That farm boy you see at the gas station did more work before breakfast than you do all week at the gym. 2. It's called a gravel road. No matter how slow you drive, you're going to get dust on your Lincoln Navigator. Drive it or get it out of the way! 3. The red dirt -- it's called clay. Red clay. If you like the color,don't wash your car for a couple weeks -- it'll be permanent. 4. We all started hunting and fishing when we were seven years old. Yeah, we saw that Bambi movie, too. We got over it. 5. Go ahead and bring your $600 Orvis fly rod. Don't cry to us if a flathead breaks it off at the handle. We have a name for those little 13-inch trout you fish for.....bait. 6. Pull your pants up! You look like an idiot!!! 7. If that cell phone rings while a bunch of mallards are making their final approach, we will shoot it. You might want to ensure it's not up to your ear at the time. 8. No, there's no Vegetarian Special on the menu. Order steak. Order it rare. Or, you can order the Chef's Salad and pick off the two pounds of ham and turkey. 9. Tea -- yeah, we have tea. It comes in a glass over ice and it's sweet. You want it hot? Set it in the sun. You want it unsweetened? Add a lot of water. 10. You bring Coke into my house, it better be brown, wet, and served over ice! 11. You have a sixty-thousand-dollar car. We're real impressed. We have a quarter of a million-dollar combine that we only use two weeks a year. 12. Let's get this straight. We have one stoplight in town. We stop when it's red. We may even stop when it's yellow. 13. We eat dinner together with our families. We pray before we eat--yeah, even breakfast.
