You know you're a Coloradoan if...

Jefffoxworthyyouknowyourefromcolora A forward just went around the office with Jeff Foxworthy's list of "You know you're from Colorado if...".

Somehow there were 43 items, but these seemed to be the most spot-on:

  • You know what the " Peoples Republic of Boulder " means.
  • The bike on your car is worth more than your car and you have your own special bike lane.
  • You take your out-of-town guests to Casa Bonita even though you would never go there otherwise.
  • You've been tear gassed in a riot to celebrate a CU/CSU victory.
  • You can never figure out why your out-of-town guests faint from altitude sickness on a picnic to the mountains. 
  • You can drive over a 12,000-foot pass in 4 feet of snow to go skiing, but can't get to work if there are 4 inches of snow.
  • When you visit friends at sea level, you can drink a case of beer and not get a buzz.
  • Your car insurance costs more than your car.
  • A bear on your front porch doesn't bother you nearly as much as a Democrat in Congress does.
  • Your golf bag has a 9-iron, a 3-wood and a lightning rod.
  • You have an $800 stereo in your $300 truck.
  • You can recognize the license plates of all 50 states on sight.
  • You've gone snow skiing in July and played golf in January and in the same year.
  • You've urinated on the Continental Divide just so it could run into both oceans. 
  • You get a certain feeling of satisfaction from knowing that California and Texas are both down stream.
