Default ...a Newfie if........

You know your from Newfoundland when....
=========================================

- You only know three spices - salt, pepper and ketchup.
- You design your Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit.
- The mosquitoes have landing lights.
- You have more miles on your snowblower than your car.
- You have 10 favourite recipes for bottled moose.
- Canadian Tire(Think, Home Depot) on any Saturday is busier than the toy stores at Christmas.
- You live in a house that has no front step, yet the door is one meter above the ground.
- You've taken your kids trick-or-treating in a blizzard.
- Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled in with snow.
- You think sexy lingerie is tube-socks and a flannel nightie with only 8 buttons.
- You owe more money on your snowmobile than your car.
- The local paper covers national and international headlines on 1/4 page, but requires 6 pages for local softball scores.
- At least twice a year, the kitchen doubles as a meat processing plant.
- The most effective mosquito repellent is a shotgun.
- Your snowblower gets stuck on the roof.
- You think the start of salmon fishing season is a national holiday.
- You frequently clean grease off your barbeque so the bears won't prowl on your deck.
- You know which leaves make good toilet paper.
- You find -40C a little nippy.
- The trunk of your car doubles as a deep freeze.
- You can play road hockey on skates.
- You know 4 seasons - Winter, Still Winter, almost Winter and Construction.
- The municipality buys a Zamboni before a bus.
- Someone can point at any given animal and you know how it tastes.
- You have a "fancy baseball cap" for weddings and graduations.
- You know more about the topography of the bottom of the bay than your own yard.
- You've ever called the local vet to come check on your "lawnmower".
-The last time "the b'ys" saw the inside of your house was when they helped you build it, but the have designated chairs in your shed.
- Going over to your mom's house doesn't require a car..............or shoes
- You're eating no name hotdogs but the dog is eating Alpo.
- Gone With The Wind is in "the new releases" section at the rental joint.
- You put a lift kit on the Volvo to deal with potholes.
- You could tie up a boat, tie a fly onto a line, and rig a tent by age four but you were fourteen before you could tie your shoes.
- There's only six Last Names in your town of five thousand people.
- You make fun of the way "Canadians" talk more than Americans do.
- A "rifle" is a .303 Lee-Enfield, anything else is referred by its caliber.
- There's more firepower under the Christmas tree than at the police station.
- You get lost seven miles back in the woods, call your Granfather on your cell, tell him you're next to a stream with some rocks and a tree and he guides you home in five steps or less.

Wow sounds a lot like PEI. I used to live there as a child for a few years. When I saw the newfie title I was going to give the poster some flak, because we have a newfie member, but then I saw that it was you posting.
