Corrected entry: On the show, "soda" is usually offered when asking if someone wants a drink. In Michigan we always refer to any carbonated drink as "pop". Maybe transplants might say soda, but if Tim and family have been there their whole lives, they would drink "pop".
Corrected entry: In the episode with the rope swinging at the beginning when Tim has finished rope swinging he lifts is head a little, on the overhead shot you see the stunt mans face instead of Tim Allen's.

Continuity mistake: The boys had different haircuts in the previous episode. Randy had just gotten a haircut, and in this episode, the kids are younger and have their longer hair right back. (00:05:50)
Heidi: Does everybody know what time it is?
Question: Was the actor who played Cal Boreland really Richard Karn's brother in real life?
Answer: No the guy sent in a picture of himself because he thought he looked like Al. So they brought him on the show as his brother.
Answer: According to imdb.com: Richard has only one sister. http://uk.imdb.com/name/nm0439781/bio.
Answer: It should also be noted, Richard Karn is his stage name as Karn is his middle name. His real name is Richard Wilson. Cal was played by Keith Lehman.
Siblings can have different last names. One might have a different father. Maybe one legally changed his name for some reason, or a man took his wife's last name (not as common, but it happens). Of course, these two actors are not actually related, but I just wanted to point this out.

Correction: Adding on to what Lummie wrote, people are also influenced by family members, teachers, etc. I live in the Southeast USA and my family has always said soda - even though a few surveys claim that it's common for people around here to say "Coke" (as a term for multiple brands).
