This should be handed to each person as they enter a Southern State.
1.That farm boy you see at the gas station did more work before breakfast
than you do all week at the gym.
2. It's called a "gravel road." No matter how slow you drive, you're
going to get dust on your Navigator. Drive it or get it out of the way.
3. The red dirt - it's called clay. Red clay. If you like the color
don't wash your car for a couple weeks - it'll be permanent.
4. We all started hunting and fishing when we were seven years old.Yeah,
we saw Bambi. We got over it.
5. Go ahead and bring your $600 Orvis Fly Rod. Don't cry to us if a
flathead breaks it off at the handle.
We have a name for those little 13-inch trout you fish for - bait.
7. Pull your pants up. You look like an idiot.
8. If that cell phone rings while a bunch of mallards are making their
final approach, we will shoot it. You might want to ensure it's not up
to your ear at the time.
9. No, there's no "Vegetarian Special" on the
menu. Order steak. Order it rare. Or, you can order the Chef's Salad
and pick off the two pounds of ham and turkey.
10. Tea - yeah, we have tea. It comes in a glass over ice and is sweet.
You want it hot - sit it in the sun. You want it unsweetened - add a lot
of water.
11. You bring Coke into my house, it better be brown, wet, and
served over ice.
12. So you have a sixty thousand-dollar car. We're real
impressed. We have a quarter of a million-dollar combine that we only
use two weeks a year.
13. Let's get this straight. We have one stoplight in town. We stop when
it's red. We may even stop when it's yellow.
14. We eat dinner together with our families. We pray before we eat
yeah, even breakfast). We go to church on Wednesdays and Sundays and we
go to high school football games on Friday nights. We still address our
seniors with "yes, sir" and "yes, ma'am," and we sometimes still take
Sunday drives around town to see friends and neighbors.
15. We don't do "hurry up" well.
16. Greens - yeah, we have greens, but you don't putt on them. You boil
them with salty fatback, bacon or a ham hock.
17. Yeah, we eat catfish, bass, bream and carp. You really want sushi
and caviar? It's available at the bait shop.
18. They are pigs. That's what they smell like. Get over it. Don't
like it? Interstate 65 goes two ways - Interstate 40 goes the other two. Pick
one.
19. Grits are corn. You put butter, salt, and maybe even some
pepper on them. If you want to put milk and sugar on them, then you want cream of wheat - go to Kansas. That would be I-40 West.
20. The "Opener" refers to the first day of deer season or dove season. Both are holidays. You can get pancakes, cane syrup, and sausage before daylight at the church on either day.
21. So every person in every pickup waves? Yeah, it's
called being friendly. Understand the concept?
22. Yeah, we have golf courses. Don't hit in the water hazards. It
spooks the fish and bothers the gators and if you hit it in the rough,
we have these things called diamondbacks,and they're not baseball
players.
23. That Highway Patrol Officer that just pulled you over for driving
like an idiot - his name is "Sir," no matter how young he is.
24. We have lots of pine trees. They have sap. It drips from them. You
park your Navigator under them, and they'll leave a logo on your hood.
25. You burn an American flag in our state, you get beat up. No
questions. The liberal contingent of our state legislature - all
four of them enacted a measure to stop this.
There is now a $2.50 fine for beating up the flag burner.

very nice Mr. Rick. Being a farmer's daughter, I particularly love #12.
