...the road hog in front of you on Main Street is a combine.

...you leave your jacket on the back of a chair in the cafe and when you go back the next day, it's still there.

...you call a wrong number and they tell you the right one.

...everyone knows all the news before it's published.

...you don't signal turns because everyone knows where you're going.

...you miss a Sunday at church and receive get-well cards.

...no social events can be scheduled when the school gym floor is being varnished.

...Third Street is on the edge of town.

...the telephone book only has one yellow page.

...the year's first baby is born in June.
 
Once in our little cowtown, two ladies were visiting one morning...

One said," Did you hear about the B-----s boy rolling his pickup last night?"
The other said,"No. Was anyone hurt?"
The first lady said," Don't know. I haven't been to the post office yet to get the details."
