I thought that OldDan, and a few other of us "Westerners" might appreciate this.
Rules of Colorado, Wyoming, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, and the Wild West are as follows:
1. Pull your pants up. You look like an idiot.
2. Turn your cap right, your head ain't crooked.
3. Let's get this straight: it's called a "gravel road," I drive a pickup
truck because I want to. No matter how slow you drive, you're gonna get dust
on your Lexus. Drive it or get out of the way.
4. They are cattle. That's why they smell to you. They smell like money
to us. Get over it. Don't like it? I-90 goes east and west, highway 95 goes
north and south. Pick one.
5. So you have a $60,000 car. We're impressed. We have $250,000 combines
that are driven only 3 weeks a year.
6. Every person in the Wild West waves. It's called being friendly. Try
to understand the concept.
7. If that cell phone rings while a bunch of geese/pheasants/ducks/doves
are comin' in during the hunts, we WILL shoot it outta your hand. You better
hope you don't have it up to your ear at the time.
8. Yeah. We eat trout, salmon, deer and elk. You really want sushi and
caviar you can get them at the bait store on the corner.
9. The "Opener" refers to the first day of deer season. It's a religious
holiday held the closest Saturday to the first of November.
10. We open doors for women. That's applied to all women, regardless of
age.
11. No, there's no "vegetarian special" on the menu. Order steak, or you
can order the Chef's Salad and pick off the 2 pounds of ham & turkey.
12. When we fill out a table, there are three main dishes: meats,
vegetables, and breads We use three spices: salt, pepper, and ketchup! Oh,
yeah.... We don't care what you folks in Cincinnati call that stuff you
eat... IT AIN'T REAL CHILI!!
13. You bring "Coke" into my house, it better be brown, wet and served
over ice. You bring "Mary Jane" into my house, she better be cute, know how
to shoot, drive a truck, and have long hair.
14. College and High School Football is as important here as the Lakers
and the Knicks, and a dang site more fun to watch.
15. Yeah, we have golf courses. But don't hit the water hazards -- it
spooks the fish.
16. Colleges? We have them all over. We have State Universities,
Universities, and Vo-techs. They come outta there with an education plus a
love for God and country, and they still wave at everybody when they come
home for the holidays.
17. We have more folks in the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines than all
of you put together, so don't mess with us. If you do, you'll get whipped by
the best.
18. Turn down that blasted car stereo! That thumpity-thump crap ain't
music, anyway. We don't want to hear it anymore than we want to see your
boxers! Refer back to #1!
:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Love it.
Could be western Queensland with a few changes of idiom.
You 'westerners' would fit in so good out here, you would hardly be noticed.
Feel free to visit, beds always available in my neck of the woods.
Might even see a 'kangaroo feeding in the mist'. ;) ;)

I would seem us midwesterners have the same thought process. Sure glad there are good folks with common sense still alive and well all over the world. And, it is also very nice to know, we have a home in Oz should we need it!!! ;D
-
Reading that list made me realize that Denver actually has more in common with Seattle or Portland (WA) than "The West." ;D
Oh, well, at least in Denver I can drive around, blast my music, get my tattoos worked on, eat my vegetarian sushi, AND not have to worry about stinky cows! :D

hahaha

Hey Jhonn,

:) There is an elderly in my home town. The road up the mountain was a dirt track, with a "keep left" post on the bends. On day she was driving her old international Scout into town. When a bloke (Guy) in a flashy new car came zooming up the mountain. They stopped bumper to bumper 2 inches apart. "Real Crook roads you have here Lady", the tourist said. "There right for those who knows how to drive on them Mister", was her reply.
-
Hey Gregk, Ask her if she wants to sell the old International Scout? Had one years ago that was like a tank and no matter what, it always started and would go anywhere. Rust took its toll, here in the states, so they are pretty much gone!!! Oh, that price would be DELIVERED!!! ;D

Man you guys have a lot of rules for driving. We only have one in Florida:
1) If you don't like my driving stay off the side walk. :D
-
1. Pull your pants up. You look like an idiot.
2. Turn your cap right, your head ain't crooked.
Those first two rules look they could apply to any Gangsta wanna-be anywhere in the US!!

You folks out West got to have rules to act normal? :o
