Talking Things I've learned about Georgia!

Possums sleep in the middle of the road with their feet in the air.
There are 5000 types of snakes, and 4998 live in GA.
There are 10,000 types of spiders. All 10,000 live in Ga, plus a couple that nobody has seen before.
Squirrels will eat anything.
Unknown critters love to dig holes under tomato plants.
Raccoons will test your crop of melons and let you now when they are ripe.
If it grows, it sticks; If it crawls, it bites.
A tractor is NOT an all-terrain vhicle. They do get stuck.
Onced and twiced are words.
It is not a shopping cart, it is a buggy.
Fire ants consider your flesh a picnic.
"Fixinto" is one word.
There ain't no such thing as "lunch". There's "dinner" and then there's "supper".
Sweet tea is appropriate for all meals, and you start drinking it when you are two.
"Backards and farards" means, I know everything about you.
"Jeet?" is actually a phrase meaning "Did you eat?"
You don't have to wear a watch because it doesn't matter what time it is.
You work until you're done or it's too dark to see.


Just thought you might like to read these! I got a kick out of them. The sad thing is that most are true!!

Talking

We don't have the fire ants and I'm glad of that!!! But everything else is the same here in the hills. It's really funny how we can live so far apart but yet we can still talk the same, and have the same habits. It must be cause we live BELOW the Mason-Dixon line...lol

yeah, and the skeeters are even worse when you live next to a slow movin, sometimes not movin, creek bed, and my father works at the nuke plant, so i think that he has brought somethin home, and they are gettin bigger by the minute, and on another note, the nuke plant also has an ant that no one can identify, it theoretically doesnt exist in any liturature. the pest control company that i used to work for, had a contract out there, and they found it, freaky lookin thing too!!

My own Georgia discoveries:
  • Roaches big enough to throw a saddle on
  • Scorpions (found one in the living room - I broke several of the laws of physics)
