You know you're from Alaska when:

1. Your winter gear rips and your first thought is "Where's the duct tape?"

2. You think antlers are a legitimate decorating option.

3. You see the dirt on your car as a camouflage feature.4. You own more than one pair of Carharts.

5. You plan your summer around the salmon runs and your winter around Hawaiian Airlines.

6. You've come to appreciate the smell of break-up season and that lovely rotting-putrid smell that means spring is coming.

7. You have at least one neighbor who owns more than three dogs.

8. You think formal wear includes, but is not limited to, denim and flannel.

9. Democrat or Republican, you'd open ANWR with your own backhoe if they'd just give you a chance.

10. You're praying for global warming.

11. Fall cleaning means changing the aluminum foil out of the windows.

12. You can identify fifteen different varieties of mosquitoes and their mating calls.

13. You've eaten any of the following: moose, caribou, bear or beaver. Extra points if you killed it yourself.
