That I have no counter for. I'm trying to think of what else I've noticed. Ah, yeah. Drive through liquor stores here in Colorado. I was used to drive through cigarette stores in WA, especially the Reservations, but it took moving to Colorado to see drive through liquor stores.

Wait drive through liquor stores? Do they really want to promote drinking and driving?

I never saw a Drive through liquor store until I got to Ohio. they're all over here.
You'd have thought I'd have seen them in California. They're the drive through capital of the world.Integrity doesn't need a rule book.

That was rather my first thought when I saw them (I've got at least TWO in the town where I'm at, and there's probably more I haven't seen). At least one of them is next door to a Subway that the police frequently eat at. I wonder why? Originally Posted by Staples

My guess is that that's why California doesn't have them.

I'm reminded of the whole thing about how, in the Bible Belt, they say that there's a church on every streetcorner. In WA, I changed that to an espresso stand...
In Colorado, we have liquor stores/bars just about on every street corner I've seen.
Four years living here, and I've not noticed one single 'Colorado-only' word or phrase. Other than the occasional mention of 'Rocktober' or mention of being 'mile high'.Last edited by Fallbreeze; 08-17-2011 at 03:30 PM.

In Mt. Pleasant, PA, they split it up. Block by block, it went something like, church, bar, church, bar, etc.
Before anyone asks, I've lived in a few different places. I guess I should have paid my rent, huh?

Good thread idea Newp!
Being French and living in a French (mostly) province, I won't bother you with our own linguistic twists and turns. However, I've often wondered just how many different appelations there are in the Usa for a simble submarine sandwich?
