Truer words have never been spoken!

Did anyone see the City Confidential episode about Sand Mountain, the guy who tried to kill his wife with his rattlesnakes? Oh, my, I'd never seen such people.



If this is what a yankee perception of what sounterners are then apparently you have never been here

Look at my byc page @ my family...you will see how good lookin' southerners really are -

When I first moved to Texas from California, a coworker mentioned how she had setup a pallet for her daughter to sleep on. I mentioned something like, "Wow, isn't that uncomfortable. Couldn't you have just put down a sleepingbag or something?" Needless to say, I never lived that one down.

My favorites:

Mom would always ask if I wanted an "aigs" for breakfast.

At a campsite with a huge fire burning, a drunk walks by and says "Now that's a FAR!"

While fishing with my buddy, a boat running down the lake, a guy yells "anybody seen the minners?" (I still use that quote at least 5 times a year!)

hollers - too complicated to describe these land formations

mountain curs

people with the first name of Junior, their legal name, as in Junior Reynolds

any one watch the special on 20/20 I think a while back on people in Appalachia and how Mt Dew actually targeted the area and gave out free soda and even babies are given it in their bottles and its why so many people have rotten teeth.

Of course, I love to go to places where the mix of people are.

The last trip to Las Vegas, I was sitting on a full capacity bus, when a lady stepped on. I stood up and offered my seat. She said "Ahh, a southern gentleman." Another said the same thing when I held the door open for her.

Do the men up north not do these things?
