Did you hear about the southerner who went to truck driving school? He passed the test and they got him a job driving truck. Well, he was driving down the road and his truck broke down, so he pulled over right beside a great big field of sunflowers. He got out and went to the field and picked big arms full of them. He put a whole bunch about 10 feet ahead of his truck and another bunch about 10 feet behind his truck.
So along comes the police officer. The man tells him his truck broke down. So the officer goes on to ask him about the sunflowers. What are they for?? The man says to him, in his VERY SOUTHERN ACCENT, "Well, sir, in truck driving school, they taught us that if your truck breaks down, you should pull over to the side of the road and put flares (flowers in Southern) in the front of the truck and flares (flowers in Southern) at the back of your truck."
I know it loses something in the translation on here. Use your imagination, people!!
yea, they both sound more like flyers than either flares or flowers.

All you Texans... take it from someone who has lived in Louisiana and in Arkansas. Texans use blinkers... at least compared to other states.
I'm convinced that when a Louisianian or an Arkansas sees a blinker on the car in front of them they immediately come to the conclusion that they must have an intermittent short in their electrical system.
And... yes... you are legally required by law to signal your intent of lane or road change. Not only that but you are required to do it by the time you are X number of feet from the turn (500 I think) so all those crazy people who signal DURING the turn... no go bud...We don't want to know what you are doing... we can see that. We want to know what you are ABOUT to do.
Hmmm... all of a sudden that 500' seems like that might be when you are supposed to dim your lights for oncoming vehicles. Not sure.
having spent half my life in Louisiana and half in Texas, I can certainly attest to the above statement!
When I moved to DALLAS from a very small town in Louisiana, my car insurance WENT DOWN!
Now in Dallas, when it starts to rain, people go completely crazy but it doesnt rain that much so most of the time the drivers arent so bad when compaired to back home...LOL.

In fact I think that the insinuation of "hateful" Pentecostals is coming mostly from the fertile imaginations of bitter, backslidden ex Apostolics who are constantly trying to find a way to justify their actions. ~ strait shooter
