You know you live in a small town if ...the dispatcher, gas company, video store, appliance store, plumber, electrician, cheesy crafts ...are all one in the same...Welcome to Misser-ah...lol
You know you live in a small town when, at your 20th class reunion (Go class of '87!):
The event is catered by a classmate who owns a barbecue restaurant
The Friday night mixer is held at a bar owned by a classmate
The karaoke at the bar is provided by a classmate-it's his regular Fri. gig
The Friday hotdog cookout is held at the park during the Youth Fair so people can stay close to their kids' animals
The hotdog grill is on loan from the Fire Dept., because a classmate is a fireman
The T-shirts are provided by a classmate because he owns the local screenprinting shop
Sat. nite DJ is the same classmate from the bar
You see several classmates who didn't want to come to the Reunion at the bar Fri. nite because that's where they hang out anyway
You know you live in a small town when there were no contingency plans for the Water and Electric Plant during Y2K because.... they had never been computerized anyway!
From where I now live there is a little town about 15 miles from here. 4 years ago, the only 2 seniors (both male) flipped a coin to see who would wear a skirt to the prom so they could dance.
You know you live in a small town when someone drives their Dad's tractor to H.S. and the other students don't give it a second of thought. You know you live in a small town when your Dad gets pulled over for speeding by the State Police and they both spend the next 45 minutes talking about fishing.
........when you come home and you find extra produce/baked goods, etc. on your kitchen counter because your neighbor had extra.
........when your mom and you were both delivered by the same doctor.
........when the cafeteria ladies let your Mom know if you are not eating the school food (pocketing lunch money)/trading lunches etc. at school.
........when you put stuff out on your lawn with a 4 sale sign on it instead of in a classified ad.
........when you only have to dial 4 digits for a phone number to reach someone in your town.
Oh, this is a fun thread (and brings back some precious memories!)
