We did this on a whim and had fun with it and apparently so did you. Here are the finalists from our "" contest. Vote for your favorite by submitting the number associated with the funniest response in the "Comments" thread for all to see.
Winner will get their choice of a Starbucks or Nordstrom gift card. Here we go:
"You Know You're From Lamorinda...
- ...when you covertly quiz the kids of your new neighbors to determine whether they will lower the API scores." - Chris Nicholson
- ...you think you were poor growing up because your family only had TWO cars and neither was an SUV." - Amanda
- ...when you ask your neighbor what kind of lawnmower he has and he responds "Guatemalan, I think.'" - Alec Binnie
- ...when your 5 year old tells her kindergarten teacher that her favorite foods are salmon and caesar salad." - Diane
- ...when the swim teams need a rule that au pairs can't sub for parents timing at meets." - Kathleen
Thanks for playing!
deer in town you don't consider it free meat.
@Alec: I do think it was clever/funny--- just not what I would want as our slogan.
Just a reminder that this thread is for voting and voting only, please. If you have a position or want to make a point, please go to Speakers Corner at: http://patch.com/A-kG0x We'll be closing down voting on Wednesday, Sept. 21 at 5 p.m. PST and tabulating the "votes" at that time. Again, this was for fun, has no bearing on any "official slogan" associated with Lamorinda and means a gift card for the winner and that's it. Enjoy. The Sheriff
#4 gets my vote!
