You know you're in NorCal when...

*you can see more than two stars at midnight...
*every third person either is a redneck or looks like a redneck...
*the visibility is "bad" because of trees, not smog...
*people actually let you merge on the freeway...
*a car going 75 mph is passing all the others...
*bumper stickers say, "My other car is a John Deere"...
*the favorite team is the Kings, not the Lakers...
*you have to swerve because of deer as opposed to litter...
*fences are used to keep animals in, not so much to keep people out...
*you get to know the people at the grocery store...
*the main roads seem like back roads...
*people claim you live "in the middle of nowhere"...
