9. You can't remember . . ... is pot illegal?
10. A really great parking space can totally move you to tears,
11. A low speed police pursuit will interrupt ANY TV broadcast,
12. Gas costs $1.00 per gallon more than anywhere else in the U.S,
13. A man gets on the bus in full leather regalia and crotchless chaps, and

Re: You know you live in California if
And You Know You Live in Arizona When...
- You buy salsa by the gallon.
- Your Christmas decorations include a half a yard of sand and 100 paper bags.
- 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.
- Every other vehicle is a 4x4.
- You can be in the snow, and then drive for an hour and it will be more than 100 degrees.
- Vehicles with open windows have the right-of-way in the summer.
- You have to go to a fake beach for some fake waves.
- People break out coats when the temperature drops below 70.
- You discover, in July, it only takes two fingers to drive your car.
- The pool can be warmer than you are.
- You can make sun tea instantly.
- People will drive over 100 miles just to see snow.
- You run your air conditioner in the middle of winter so you can use your fireplace.
- Most people will not drink tap water unless they are under dire conditions.
- People with black cars or have black upholstery in their car are automatically assumed to be from out-of-state or nuts.
- You notice the best parking place is determined by shade instead of distance.
- You realize Valley Fever isn't a disco dance.
- You can finish a Big Gulp in 10 minutes and go back for seconds.
- 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.
- You actually burn your hand opening the car door.
- 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.
- Some fool can market mini-misters for joggers and other fools will actually buy them.
- 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 eat hot chilis to cool your mouth off.
- You learn that a seat belt makes a pretty good branding iron.
- The temperature drops below 95, you feel a bit chilly.
- You discover that you can get a sunburn through your car window.
- You break a sweat the instant you step outside at 7:30 a.m. before work.
- Your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, "What if I get knocked out and end up lying on the pavement and cook to death?"
- You realize that asphalt has a liquid state.
