Yankees are at work. Also, they don't talk funny therefore they don't need to repeat themselves as often. :laughing:

Being a Yankee in the South this really made me laugh ... Southerners are always willing to help and have a lot of down home ways to fix it. :laughing:

no offense to anyone but the last time I looked at the "regional" sections...it looked like someone could use a refresher course in American geography...

And IMO there is a difference between what is regarded as 'The South' and what is the "Deep South"

When I was learning geography I was taught that anything below the Mason Dixon line and East of West Texas was considered the south...Deep South

I suppose this is true to an extent, although I think folks tend to think if their on the east coast and the states south of them on east coast is considered South, same with western states, Texas being most southern to any along the west cost, I'm sure its justified either way,;) I kinda look at Texas as Western as it has always been referred to as " The-Ol-West " Very rarely do I hear of Texas being referred to as South, Maybe the residents of their State might call the souithern part of Texas "South Texas",
its Kinda Like I'm here in Ga, and consider all folks up the eastern coast above the Carolina's as Yankee's, I guess this is due to most who come to the south mostly come from the Eastern states Up North, I very seldom think of states Like Kansas, Idaho, N & S Dakota or even Washington, as anything but Mid or Mid west or Nth west united states, but as I said somehow Texas is locked in my mind as all Western... Ya know Cowboy hats & six shooters, spitting backer on rattlesnakes while riding your horses :D I must take a trip out west one day to see how far south it is,;)

The North uses more fence that the South, hence more posts. The South has all the cotton, hence all the threads. Duhh !

Its always been kind of hard for me to swallow that Maryland was ever considered a part of the south. Its an atypical southern state, if it is one at all. But the Mason-Dixon is the traditional deciding line. Texans have no problem fitting into the south, and Oakies either. Southerners, usually have "big tent" attitude, though except,Floridians north of Ocala can claim Southerness, but if you fall below that, then you need to submit your accent, lifestyle, and income for further review on a case by case basis. AND if you have never drank FRESH brewed sweet(iced of course) tea, you can turn in your southern resignation immediately.:laughing: Same thing for Grits (unmolested,without milk added or sweetened, with only butter, salt and pepper unless its cheese grits) and Fried Okra, (not breaded in flour and mushy, but cooked in cornmeal and crisp the way it is supposed to be)

Terms referring to the south, and subdivisions within:
Old South, Deep South,Dixie (alabama for some reason claims Heart of Dixie), Upper South, Lower South, Sunbelt, Bible Belt, New South, Antebellum South, Southern US, Traditional South, South East, South Central,
Coastal South, Coastal Plains,SouthWest (only in reference to Texas and OK in the sense of falling into the category of southern type states), Mid South. What did I miss???
