[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 109562"] Oh...almost forgot... In the south, you don't ask, "Hand me that towel, please" you say, "Reach that towel for me". And your truck didn't break down. It tore up. And you don't 'get ready' to do something. You're 'fixin' to. As in: Question: "Are you going to go to the store?" Answer: "I'm fixin' to." And lets not forget words like 'yonder' and 'holler' (not like yelling). It was like learning a whole new lanuguage. [img]:rofl:[/img] And, no, I'm not cracking on you southerners cause I talked just like you all when I lived down there. [img]:smile:[/img] Did you know that there are (or were back in '94) 27 variations of 'Peachtree Street' in Atlanta? Or maybe it was 27 pages of Smith's in the phone book. Hmmm...now I'm confusing myself. But, anyway there were A LOT of variations of Peachtree Street. Made it hard to get around if you didn't know the area. [/QUOTE]
