YOU KNOW YOURE IN ARIZONA WHEN:
- Youve signed so many petitions to recall governors that you cant
remember the name of the incumbent.

- You can say Hohokam and people dont think youre 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 115 degrees without fainting.
- You can be in the snow, then drive for an hour and it will be over
100 degrees.
- You have to go to a fake beach for some fake waves.
- You discover, in July, that it only takes two fingers to drive your

is moving on the streets.

- Sunscreen is sold year round, kept at the front of the checkout

will actually buy them.
- Hot air balloons cant go up, because the air outside is hotter
than the air inside.
