Life as an Albertan
1. "Vacation" means going to Calgary for the weekend.
2. You measure distance in hours.
3. You often switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day.
4. You know several people who have hit deer more than once.
5. You use a down comforter in the summer.
6. Your grandparents drive at 100 km/hr through four meters of snow during a blizzard, without
flinching.
7. You carry jumper cables in your car and your girlfriend knows how to use them.
8. You design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit.
9. Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled. (That is sooooo Edmonton)
10. You know both seasons: Winter and construction.
11. You are bundled up in three sweaters, a parka, ski pants, a toque, two pairs of mittens, boots past
your knees in 3 feet of snow in a -35 (-8000 with the wind-chill) blizzard, your eyelashes are frozen
together, your nose is running, you can't feel your toes, and you still stop at 7Eleven for a Slurpee on
the way home.
12. You actually understand these jokes and forward them to all your friends from Alberta.

First I want to say Dave you rock. You give me insight to my car that I would have never thought about. Great work! I don't want to be offensive, but I'm just wondering what that doll logo is? Usually I read my emails at lunch and sometimes I have visitors come by... The funny thing is most of them start the conversation by saying.... "Hey how ar..... .. . What the @#$# is that?" .... So I figured I should ask the same questiion... What is that?
