Heh heh.
You live in Central Illinois when:
1. Your normal field of view encompasses 50 sq. miles.
2. You
NEVER lose a cell phone connection.
3. You burn anything you want, anytime you want. Sick of that old barn? Burn it!
4. The first thing you do with your brand new pickup truck is remove the muffler.
5. You haven't the slightest idea where the nearest coffee shop is.
6. You get your name printed in the local paper because you spent a day at the hospital.
7. Recycle? Is that some form of transportation?
