never saw the movie,but it depicts deer camp and huntin in da U.P.

http://www.lakesuperiortheatre.com/e...ht_is_jeff.htm

heres a few YOOPER facts:

You might be a Yooper if:

Your winter hat is a "chook" and your gloves are "choppers

Ya think da best nighttime entertainment is watching da bug zapper

Ya think cutting and fertilizing your lawn means letting out da goats

Keep wondering why dey put six buttons on da radio when there's only two stations

Your local store is also da only gas station and post office within 40 miles of your house

Ya eat roadkill on a regular bases and know 29 ways to prepare it

Ya deer hunt on logging trails with your 4x4 and no gun

Da label on your best jacket is Carhart

If after shave and perfume don't contain Deet you don't buy it

Your proud of graduating from da eight grade

All your goats have mastered the head-butt bucket technique for breaking ice

Ya don't worry about plowing da yard till there's at least a foot and a half of snow

Ya spend more money on fishing tackle than food

Ya know that in Nov. *Trolls* mutate to an orange color and become *Apple Knockers*

Your wife's Christmas list includes: Two ladies Remingtons 20ga. and 30-06 with 3-9 scope

Ya brag about da accuracy of your rifle so da neighbor asks your wife to sight theirs in too

Da wife says "Honey da truck needs an oil change" so ya bring home da oil and filter so she can change it

Repairing the roof includes some rope, cement blocks, and one of dem blue tarps from da hardware store

Ya wake up and it's 40 below zero. You don't even try to start da truck ya just start calling the neighbors
to see if any of dem were smart enough to buy new batteries

Your kids school has 50 students....and their related to over half of dem

Ya'd find it strange if ya didn't need to feed da goats hay six months out of da year

Ya find out da neighbors wife chews and your only reply is "What brand?"

Ya know that Copenhagen and Skoal double as *radiator stop leak*

Ya figure da best way to *wash* your truck is to drive really fast though a thunderstorm.

Your living room walls are so full of deer mounts there's no room for pictures

When ya go to buy new carpet ya take a sample of dirt along for a color match

Da local dog population out numbers da people population 2 to 1

To start every vehicle ya own somehow involves da use of a toggle switch

Ya don't consider jumper cables and tire chains season equipment

Anything that digs a hole under your house is classified as supper

Your hunting camp is better furnished than your house

Your boat plug is a whittled piece of wood

Ya know what pasties are and how to make them

Ya got your swim wear ten years ago and it still looks new because ya only get to wear it three weeks out
of da year

Da kids use their sleds more than their bikes

It'd not surprise ya if your garden freezes on da 4th of July

Da only smooth part of your main road is directly down da center

Ya store guns and tools in da closet cause flannel don't require hanging

If ya pick up the phone and get a dial tone.... ya think it's your lucky day

If da power don't go once a month ya worry and call da electric company

If ya gotta call home and say "Honey da car's stuck in a pot-hole again...come pull it out"

If ya refer to "pot-holes" as "craters"

Ya don't find it strange to wear long johns in August

Ya walk into da most expensive steak house in town and everyone is wearing blue jeans and flannel
shirts

Ya sleep in a flannel shirt and long johns year round

Hunting season means a school holiday

Ya know exactly how much a brown bag of pop cans is worth now matter what size the brown bag is

Refer to the word "thumb" as a piece of land instead of part of your hand

Ya want to know when the DNR is going to add a bag limit to "tourist season"

When ya give out a time to meet someone ya gotta make sure you specify "fast time" or "slow time"

Ya know that "Big Bad John" is a 60 foot statue in Iron Mountain

Ya know that ya can't see black ice but ya figure out it was on da road when your in da ditch

Never been caught saying the word "the" cause you's been taught it's really suppose to be "da"

Da 10 cent returns has gotten gas to get me home before. Basically, if your running low on funds, and da gas gauge is gettin down there, you start scanning da sides of da road.

Hunting with your truck!!! No, I've never done that before.

Ice Cream in a Blizzard!!!Of course.
