Things I Learned
  1. When being pulled over for speeding, don't take your seatbelt off until after the officer asks you for your driver's license.

  2. When taking a cold shower in Florida, you can actually run out of cold water and end up taking a luke-warm shower.

  3. Canadians make great chew toys.

  4. Even a motel/resort with Canada in it's name still flies an American flag outside.

  5. Ladder 49 is not a good movie

  6. Ocean beach sand makes cool swishing noises if you scuffle your feet in it.

  7. Map Quest does not provide perfect maps all the time.

  8. Mobile Alabama is pronounced as if you are saying automobile.

  9. Grits is corn ground into a white, flavorles pulp.

  10. Chik-fil-A should be a Canadian restaurant.

  11. I don't have "Canadian" tattooed to my forehead.
