I laugh at the people that still think we're just ole hillbillys down here. They think we still don't have any technology and that we ride buggies everywhere. I feel sorry for the people that haven't ever had a hush puppie or sweet tea or fried okra or fried squash and SOOOO many other things. You yankees just don't know what you're missin.

i learned about the dry county when we were out on lake wedowee this summer ... we had 1 choice, dump all the beer out or go to jail. we proceeded to dump a couple cases into the lake. my girlfriend goes to college out there and they all have to 'smuggle' beer in. i couldnt believe it.

Wasn't ever dry where I was. Matter of fact I heard the FLorabama bar got devistated. Anyone know of that? I believe it's the only bar in the USA , whereas you can get a Dui in two states at the same time. Of course that is another story. I 've been through out the Good Old USA. The version I always heard was that the toothbrush was invented in Georgia or Florida. Funny how that story gets around. I guess it depends on where you are hearing it at. I might add I was in Florida when I heard the Florida version. The toothless are everywhere I am afraid. Which state is it that the state flower is the satillite dish mounted outside the trailer house? Anyone? I may add the worst thing about the SOUTH is damn fire ants.

The state flower in Alabama is Kudzu.
The state bird is the one finger salute.
A true Alabamian's neck is as red as the central Alabama clay.
The number one root crop is the rock. You can't dig without hitting one.
The number one yard ornament is two Dodges on blocks.
It is aganist the law to say a sentence without y'all in it at least once.
"Here" is pronounced as a three syllable word.
Most true Alabamian's family trees don't produce a lot of shade, if you know what I mean.
Anyone that lives in Atlanta or above is a "yankee".
A lake created by a dam is not a lake, it is "the backwarter" (spelled as pronounced)
It is aganist the law for a family not to have a fued of some kind going on at all times.
Most older Alabamians think that George Wallace WAS the President.
NOTICE*** This post is all in fun. All of my family, and I mean ALL, is from either east central Alabama, or just across the line in Georgia. I was conceived in Ala., just happened to be born in N.C. I ended up staying here with the only relatives not living there. I love Alabama, and consider myself to have dual citizenship between Ala. and N.C.
These are just observations from my brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, and cousins, who live there, whom I love, and visit with when I can. If you think I was pointing a finger, remember I have four more pointed back at me.
If you can't make fun of yourself, and your relatives, who can you make fun of.

Actually Alabama is a gorgous state. I would love to move there & just may do that if my current conditions warrant it.
I would love to be near Muscle Shoals, Fort Payne, or Tuscaloosa.
