People are People

Have you ever heard that saying, "If you don't like the weather, just wait five minutes and it will change. Here in ___________, it's always changing." They say that everywhere. They say it in Texas and in Illinios. They even said it in Australia. It's funny that people feel that the weather changes quickly only where they live.

We enjoy asking people how far it is to a certain city from their city. They always double or triple the amount of time it actually takes to drive to the city in question. For example, we may know that a city is a 2 hour drive from where we stop to eat. So, we ask the waiter how long it will take to drive to that city. He'll usually tell us that it takes about 5 hours to get there.

Next time you go on a road trip ask about the weather and how far the next town is. You will find that weather is weather no matter where you are. Also, people are people no matter where you are.
