You are a fluke of the universe

Posted by jaf in Humor on January 13th, 2010

We are, of course, coming up on the very end of the year, and I thought it’d be nice to slow down and do a little deep thinking.

You don’t have to be familiar with the poem “Desiderata” to appreciate this. Written by Tony Hendra in his National Lampoon days, it appeared on the Radio Dinner LP, which has been criminally out of print for too long.

  • If you consider it a sport to sit in a ice hut all day long with a rod & reel just to put perch in your freezer, you might live in Buffalo.
  • If you’re proud that your region makes the national news 96 nights each year because Lewiston is the coldest spot in the nation, you might live in Buffalo.
  • If your local Dairy Queen is closed from November - March, you might live in Buffalo.    If someone in a store offers you assistance, & they don’t work there, you might live in Buffalo; because you’re all so damn friendly.
  • If you have ever worn shorts, sunglasses & a parka at the same time, you might live in Buffalo.
  • If your town has an equal number of bars & churches, or if you are in church & your priest or minister asks you to pray for the Bills, & wants to get you all home for 1 p.m. kickoff, you might live in Buffalo.
  • If you have had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed a wrong number, you might live in Buffalo.

You know you’re a true Buffalonian when:

1. ‘Vacation’ means going over to your cottage in Canada for the weekend.

2. You measure distance in hours.

3. You know several people who have hit a deer more than once.

4. You often switch from ‘heat’ to ‘A/C’ in the same day & back again.

5. You can drive 65 mph through 2′ of snow during a raging blizzard, without flinching.

6. You carry jumper cables in your car & your wife knows how to use them.

7. You design your kid’s Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit.

8. Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with snow.

9. You know all 4 seasons: summer, fall, winter, still winter & road construction.

10. Down South to you means ERIE, PA.

11. You find ’0′ degrees ‘a little chilly.’

12. You go out to fish fry every Friday, Prime Rib on Saturday & bingo every Wednesday.

13. Your 4th of July picnic was moved indoors due to frost.

14. You have more miles on your snow blower than your car.

15. You actually understand these jokes, & you forward them to all your Buffalo friends!

Thanks to Kerry for sending me this.
