 FOR NORTHERNERS MOVING SOUTH . . . In the South: --If you run your car
into a ditch, don't panic. Four men in a four-wheel drive pickup truck
with a tow chain will be along shortly. Don't try to help them, just
stay  out of their way. This is what they live for.

 Don't be surprised to find movie rentals and bait in the same
store....do not buy food at this store.

 Remember, "y'all" is singular, "all y'all" is plural, and "all y'all's"
is plural possessive.

 Get used to hearing "You ain't from round here, are ya?"

 Save all manner of bacon grease. You will be instructed later on  how
to use it.
 Don't be worried at not understanding what people are saying. They
can't  understand you either. The first Southern statement to creep into
a  transplanted Northerner's vocabulary is the adjective "big'ol," truck
or  big'ol" boy. Most Northerners begin their Southern-influenced
dialect this  way. All of them are in denial about it.

 The proper pronunciation you learned in school is no longer proper.


 Be advised that "He needed killin." is a valid defense here


 If you hear a Southerner exclaim, "Hey, y'all, watch this," you  should
stay out of the way. These are likely to be the last words he'll  ever
say.

 If there is the prediction of the slightest chance of even the smallest
accumulation of snow, your presence is required at the local grocery
store.  It doesn't matter whether you need anything or not. You just
have to go there.

 Do not be surprised to find that 10-year olds own their own  shotguns,
they are proficient marksmen, and their mammas taught them how  to aim.

 In the South, we have found that the best way to grow a lush green lawn
is  to pour gravel on it and call it a driveway.

 AND REMEMBER: If you do settle in the South and bear children,  don't
think we will accept them as Southerners. After all, if the cat had
kittens in the oven, we wouldn't call 'em biscuits.

 Send this to four people that ain't related to you, and I reckon  your
life will turn into a country music song 'fore you know it.

 Your kin would get a kick out of it too!
