YOU KNOW YOU ARE IN ARKANSAS IN JULY WHEN. . . .
You realize that asphalt has a liquid state.
The birds have to use potholders to pull worms
out of the ground.
The trees are whistling for the dogs.
The best parking place is determined by shade
instead of distance.
Hot water now comes out of both taps.
You can make sun tea instantly.
You learn that a seat belt buckle makes a pretty
good branding iron.
The temperature drops below 95 and you feel a
little chilly.
You discover that in July it only takes 2
fingers to steer your car.
You discover that you can get sunburned through
your car window.
You actually burn your hand opening the car
door.
You break into a sweat the instant you step
outside at 7:30 a.m.
Your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, ‘What if I
get knocked out and end up lying on the
pavement and cook to death?’
The potatoes cook underground, so all you have
to do is pull one out and add butter, salt and pepper.
Farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice
to keep them from laying boiled eggs.
The cows are giving evaporated milk.
Ah, what a place to call home.
God Bless (and help) Our State of Arkansas!!
