Heidi Trevor:

One last list of friendly advice before you settle in with that Barefoot crowd, to help you adapt to the differences in lifestyles you are likely to encounter.

 

 

The North has coffee houses, The South has Waffle Houses.

 

The North has dating services, The South has family reunions.

 

The North has switchblade knives, The South (Katie?) has Lee Press-on Nails.

 

The North has double last names, The South has double first names.

 

The North has Indy car races, The South has stock car races.

 

The North has Cream of Wheat, The South has grits.

 

The North has green salads, The South has collard greens.

 

The North has lobsters, The South has crawdads.

 

The North has the rust belt, The South has the Bible Belt.

 

In the South:

 

If you run your car into a ditch, don't panic, four men in a four-wheel drive pickup truck with a tow chain will be along shortly. Don't try to

help them, just stay out of their way, this is what they live for.

 

Don't be surprised to find movie rentals and bait in the same store....

Do not buy any food at this store.

 

Remember, "y'all" is singular, "all y'all" is plural, and "all y'all's" is plural possessive.

 

Get used to hearing "You ain't from round here, are ya?"

 

Don't be worried at not understanding what people are saying. They can't understand you either.

 

The first Southern statement to creep into a transplanted Northerner's vocabulary is the adjective "big'ol," truck or "big'ol" boy. Most

Northerners begin their Southern-influenced dialect this way. All of them are in denial about it.

 

The proper pronunciation you learned in school is no longer proper.

 

Be advised that "He needed killin" is a valid defense here.

 

If you hear a Southerner exclaim, "Hey, y'all, watch this," you should immediately move aside and stay out of the way. These are likely to be

the last words he'll ever say.

 

If there is the prediction of the slightest chance of even the smallest accumulation of snow, your presence is required at the local grocery

store. It doesn't matter whether you need anything or not, you just have to go there.

 

Do not be surprised to find that 10-year-olds own their own shotguns, that they are proficient marksmen, and that their mammas taught them how to

aim.

 

In the South, we have found that the best way to grow a lush green lawn is to pour gravel on it and call it a driveway.

 

AND REMEMBER:

 

If you do settle in the South and bear children, don't think we will accept them as Southerners. After all, if the cat had kittens in the oven,

we wouldn't call 'em biscuits.

 

Later- Paul

Hello All.

 

I am back up and running. FINALLY got road-runner to come out!!!!!

 

WOW, I can not believe how long this topic got. You people are funny with all the jokes.

 

Thanks for all the kind words from everyone.

 

For the southern "folk".....Does Walmart make special clothes to help with the @#!% humidity? You know, something that has a mist system in it.
