You Might Be From Arizona If...

We had the Wisconsin version a while ago...here is the Arizona version (not my originals).

• You buy salsa by the gallon.
• Your Christmas decorations include a half a yard of sand and 100 paper bags. And several chile ristras.
• All of your out-of-state friends start to visit after October but clear out come the end of April.
• You think someone driving while wearing oven mitts is clever.
• Most of the restaurants in your town have the first name "El" or "Los."
• You think six tons of crushed rock makes a beautiful yard.
• You notice your car overheating before you drive it.
• Your house is made of stucco and has a red clay tile roof.
• You can say Hohokam and people don't think you're laughing funny.
• You no longer associate bridges or rivers with water.
• You see more irrigation water on the street than there is in the Salt River.
• You know a swamp cooler is not a happy hour drink.
• You can say 120 degrees without fainting.
• Vehicles with open windows have the right-of-way in the summer.
• You discover, in July, it only takes two fingers to drive your car.
• The pool can be warmer than you are.
• You can make instant sun tea.
• People will drive more than 100 miles just to see snow.
• You run your air conditioner in the middle of winter so you can use your fireplace.
• People with black cars or black upholstery are automatically assumed to be from out-of-state or nuts.
• You know that Valley Fever isn't a disco dance.
• The water from the cold water tap is the same temperature as the hot one.
• You can (correctly) pronounce the words: "Saguaro," "Tempe," "Gila Bend," "San Xavier," "Canyon de Chelly," "Mogollon Rim," "Cholla," and "Ajo."
• It's noon in July, kids are on summer vacation, and not one person is moving on the streets.
• Sunscreen is sold year round, kept at the front of the checkout counter, a formula less than 30 SPF is a joke, and you wear it just to go to the Circle K.
• Hot-air balloons can't go up, because the air outside is hotter than the air inside.
• No one would dream of putting vinyl upholstery in a car.
• You learn that a seat belt makes a pretty good branding iron.

• You realize that asphalt has a liquid state.
