Being a latent southerner (Grandma's family from Texas and Louisiana) thats a good laugh at what I missed being here instead of there. Given the choice though, I'll still take here, I'd never survive the kudzu or the humidity "down thar...".

Cultural exchange for my overseas friends

After our very fun debate about Thomas et al, I thought those of you living in the UK and down under might enjoy some insight into my Southern US culture. Check out these web sites, they are not mine, but they are very well done and informative. Some may find them funny, but that is only because it is absolutely true!
