| This reminded me of MsVickie...
SOUTHERN WOMEN Southern women appreciate their natural assets: Clean skin.
A winning smile. That unforgettable Southern drawl.
Southern women know their manners: "Yes, ma'am." "Yes, ! sir." "Why, no,
Billy!"
Southern women have a distinct way with fond expressions : "Y'all come
back!" "Well, bless your heart." "Drop by when you can." "How's your
Momma?"
Southern women know their summer weather report: Humidity Humidity Humidity
Southern women know their vacation spots: The beach The rivuh The crick

Southern women know the movies that speak to their hearts: Fried Green
Tomatoes Driving Miss Daisy Steel Magnolias Gone With The Wind
Southern women know their religions: Baptist Methodist Football
Southern women know their country breakfasts: Red-eye gravy Grits Eggs
Country ham Mouth-watering homemade biscuits with momma's homemade jelly
Southern women know their cities dripping with Southern charm: Chawl'stn
S'vanah Foat Wuth N'awlins Addlanna
Southern women know their elegant gentlemen : Men in uniform. Men in
tuxedos Rhett Butler
Southern girls know their prime real estate: The Mall The Country Club The
Beauty Salon
Southern girls know the 3 deadly sins: Having bad hair and nails Having
bad manners Cooking bad food
More Southern-ism's: Only a Southerner knows the difference between a
hissie fit and a conniption fit, and that you don't "HAVE" them, you
"PITCH" them.
_____
Only a Southerner knows how many fish, collard greens, turnip greens,
peas, beans, etc., make up "a mess."
_____
Only a Southerner can show or point out to you the general direction of
yonder."
_____
Only a Southerner knows exactly how long "directly" is, as in: Going to
town, be back directly."
_____
Even Southern babies know that "Gimme some sugar" is not a request for the
white, granular sweet substance that sits in a pretty little bowl in the
middle of the table.
_____
All Southerners know exactly when "by and by" is. They might not use the
term, but they know the concept well.
_____
Only a Southerner knows instinctively that the best gesture of solace for
a neighbor who's got trouble is a plate of hot fried chicken and a big
bowl of cold potato salad. If the neighbor's trouble is a real crisis,
they alsoknow to add a large banana puddin!
_____
Only! Southerners grow up knowing the difference between"right near" and a
right far piece." They also know that"just down the road" can be
1 mile or 20.
_____
Only a Southerner, both knows and understands, the difference between a
redneck, a good ol' boy, and po' white trash.
_____
No true Southerner would ever assume that the car with the flashing
turnsignal is actually going to make a turn.
_____
A Southerner knows that "fixin" can be used as a noun, a verb, or an
adverb.
_____
Only Southerners make fr! iends while standing in lines, ... and when
we're in line,". We talk to everybody!
_____
Put 100 Southerners in a room and half of them will discover they're
related even if only by marriage.
_____
In the South, y'all is singular, all y'all is plural.
_____
Southerners know grits come from corn and how to eat them.
_____
Every Southerner knows tomatoes with eggs, bacon, grits, and coffee are
perfectly wonderful; that red eye gravy is also a breakfast food; and that
fried green tomatoes are not a breakfast food.
_____
When you hear someone say, "Well, I caught myself lookin'," you know you
are in the presence of a genuine Southerner!
_____
Only true Southerners say "sweet tea" and "sweet milk."Sweet tea indicates
the need for sugar and lots of it -- we do not like our tea unsweetened.
Sweet milk" means you don't want buttermilk.
____
And a true Southerner knows you don't scream obscenities at little old
ladies who drive 30 MPH on the freeway. You just say,"Bless her heart" and
go your own way.
_____
To those of you who are still a little embarrassed by your Southerness:
Take two tent revivals and a dose of sausage gravy and call me in the
morning . Bless your heart!
_____
And to those of you who are still having a hard time understanding all
this Southern stuff, ... bless your hearts, I hear they are fixin' to have
classes on Southernness as a second language!
_____
And for those that are not from the South but have lived here for a long
time, all y'all need a sign to hang on y'alls front porch that reads " I
ain't from the South, but I got here as fast as I could."
Southern girls know men may come and go, but friends are fahevah !
Now.. .... Shugah, send this to someone who was raised in the South or
wish they had been!
If you're a Northern transplant, Bless your little heart, fake it. We know
you got here as fast as you could!
