To Keith W.... thanks for that post...it made me smile. I just spent some time in GA and I inquired into that drawl! LOL The lady told me they went to school and were taught how to draw their r's and the lot. That is how you know someone is "SOUTHERN BRED".... it is huge thing in the south. Since I lived in FL a long time, I commonly referred to myself as "Southern". ..Well, when I entered GA they assured me that under NO certain terms would I ever be considered southern! LOL They said FL is NOT the south!LOl See, I learn something every day. Anyway, at first it was annoying to hear at that drawling and dragging and many times I had to keep saying "what" whatchu saying? LOL But now that I'm gone... I sure wish I could here one of those southern boys saying "ah igh, I reckon and how ya'll doing today"....
Did you eat yet?
No, did you?
No, don't you think we need to?
Yes, I do.
Where do you want to go?
I don't know. I guess we'll go a look down that road.
Ok, I'll meet you there.

As it pertains to this forum, and not be accused of starting a flame war, one could say, "that Tundra/Chevy/Dodge driver, bless his heart, could not keep up..."
