You can take the girl off the island...

I grew up on Vancouver Island in the Cowichan Valley. It was a lovely and slightly idyllic existence on a farm with goats, cats and a really smelly dog named Flashy.

There are a few ways to recognize a girl that grew up SO CLOSE to Duncan (but not Duncan itself. this is key. Its like Surrey and White Rock. Trust me on this) They include:

1. Her love of heavy metal. Specifically Metallica, AC/DC, The Scorpions and Megadeth
2. Her ability to drink anyone under the table at any time
3. Her ability to tell the difference between a Jersey and a Holstein (they are cows by the way)
   
4. Her big hair
   
5. Her overwhelming glee at the resurgence of shows like...
