Thatr was fun, thanks for sharing. My score:

66% Dixie. Just under the Mason-Dixon Line

Seems about right for Northern Virginia.

Enjoy

If you're having fun, you're doing it the right way.

I hit 66% Dixie. Not bad for someone born and raised in NJ, but each move brought me further south. I guess maybe my family originated from southern Poland.

Came out 33% Dixie - then again results cannot be relied upon due to my being Welsh rather than American!

Hmmm. Guess I should have studied for the test. Not bad for Florida though. We have a tough time with tests, election ballots, etc.

More good news.. my Dixie score was 22 %. That's great.

31% Definite Yankee.
Surprised no nascar or fishing questions, though.

To my fellow Yankees: It's not the Civil War, it's THE WAR OF NORTHERN AGGRESSION!!!! (I about died when I heard that for the first time. )

AND ONE MORE THING: WE'RE ALL AMERICANS AND YOURE ALL WELCOME TO PLAY WITH MY TRAINS ANY TIME. It's our differences that make us interesting.

49% Dixie.

Having grown up in Houston, I was unsure where some of the author's terms came from. We do not TP a house, we "wrap" it. A bubbly drink was commonly called a "soda pop" (or "RC"). Gym shoes were called "high tops or low tops." To list a few...

BTW Buckeye,

Hockey is anchored in the SOUTH - when we implemented airconditioning, we run it so cold that ice forms on everything! This way nawthern teams had a place to practice in the summer!

Buckeye, your compus is broken. He lives WESTERN USA. During the War of Northern Aggression, that was Indian territory. Then the YanK army [spurred by greedy railroad men] invaded them and ran the into a little spot of land. [soapbox][censored]

I tested out only 30% Rebel. Puts me safely in the Yankee camp. What can I say... I was raised in Minnesnowta! I think my new home, the Battle Born State, is responsible for the 30% I do have. I strive for a balance!
