Crissy, I thought that that was only a Southern thing (milk and bread). We don’t do well with snow. It’s not like we’re going to be housebound for more than 1 day but everyone freaks the fuck out.

Ken, I assume these are all food items (I recognize a couple) but to be honest, they all sound like behind the scenes porn industry lingo…

gaggers, grinders, cheese-less pizza strips, bubblers, doughboys, and quahogs all sound like filthy, fetishy goodness.

wifey: you forgot coffee milk, gaggers, grinders, cheese-less pizza strips, bubblers, doughboys, and quahogs.

and up until a few days ago, indoor prostitution was still legal. (bummer we lost that one.)

interesting fact: yosemite national park in CA is about the same size as RI.

Things you don’t know about Rhode Island:
We do not drive more than 20 minutes away from home without making sure we have a full tank of gas and a water bottle and a bagged lunch.

When they predict snow, even if it’s only an inch or two, EVERYONE AND THEIR GRANDMA runs to the store to buy milk and bread.

If you don’t drink Del’s lemonade at least once in the summer, we kick you out of the state.

I’m sure there’s more but I’m feeling a blog post of my own coming on about this. I’ll spare your comments section…

PS: I would NEVER do karaoke. NEVER. I can’t sing worth a shit and it would be awful and then I’d die and then it would be even more awful. So, good for you! You’ve got balls.

How old was this New York girl? Nine? ten?

Also, this is my favorite post. Ever.

Ken: I try and stick with Madonna and Prince. Because neither one of them can sing, but both make people shake their booties. I also sang Faith by George Michael once. That was fun.
