I live in South Central
It is nice to see another flatlander. :)
Born in the south, raised in the south, still live here and WHAT?
I do not love fats and butter, never. South Georgia is about as southern as you can get. I do not want to clog my arteries and eat organic as much as I can. You cannot speak for everyone, only yourself.
I live in the south and here a few miles south of Atlanta
it is around 14 this morning. I had to go out but layered clothes, put on socks for a change, headgear and even gloves and have a really good coat with hood but fur on the inside so I was cozy. Supposedly even colder tomorrow.
When we moved to Kentucky from NY...sm
14 years ago I was filling out that pile of paperwork for my sons and came across the document about paddling....I was appalled.....How archaic! My mother has taught in NY for 42 years and I assure you it's not an acceptable practice! I just wrote "What, are you kidding me?" and got called into the principal's office to explain myself.
Also, when asked about race I checked OTHER and wrote HUMAN....Got called in again to the principal's office.  Cat
Mine too, - Kentucky.

I am in Kentucky and as of this morning in
my area there are still over 10,000 without power since Monday night/Tuesday morning of last week. People use car radios, battery radios, anything they can to find out what is goign one. I sat in my car every hour the news came on and also used my car to charge my cell phone so I could stay in touch.
Kentucky Derby
Has anyone ever attended the Kentucky Derby? Do you have any info you'd care to share? I would like to attend but would like to find out all I can before I go. Thanks a bunch.
Kentucky Derby
Thanks so much for your info. I want so bad to go but have no knowledge of the area or anything so somewhat skeptical. I don't see any chance of getting tickets other than general admission and would like for us to at least be able to see the track. If you think of anything else, I'd be glad to hear it.
Kentucky is 3 years too.

Yes I am, born and raised in Kentucky and

Are you from Kentucky? Louisville was the only place I ever encountered hot
brown!
Live in Kentucky - our kids get 2 weeks
at Christmas, 3 days at Thanksgiving, 1 week spring break in April and they get any days missed tacked on at end of year. This year the kids in my area are going 2 extra weeks because of 2 major disasters (wind storm and ice storm) after which they missed a total of 2 weeks of school. They also have various days throughout the year for "teacher conference" days. There are no 2 hour delays.
We deal with it like we always have. If you work at home no problem, if not you use babysitters, daycare, grandparents, etc.
Central Ohio sm
About 20 minutes from Columbus. We can't get the back door open, but we have a covered front porch so at least we can get out!
Central California . . .
a cool 85 for the high predicted tomorrow - yipee - we haven't seen the 80s in many moons. Still in the 90s here. We all better enjoy it. The Farmer's Almanac is predicting record breaking heat next summer. Hope they're wrong.
Cardinal Central
It snowed here in Missouri the other day and I tried to get a picture of all of the cardinals at my feeders. I couldn't fit them all in, hope you can see picture. I love cardinals!
East Central Ky
We felt it here
Hey, all of our central FL MTs out there! Prayers for you and hoping sm
ya'll are doing fine! I just heard that some twisters produced winds of more than 300 mph. Unbelievable. Even stronger winds than a cat 5 hurricane.
Lots of people out there need our prayers and supupport. Let us remember them today at all of their devastating loss. May God give them rest and peace today........
Central PA ~ It's been snowing since early a.m.
Could get up to a foot at least from what I heard. So don't like hearing that!
Central Maine, near Bangor.
We are entering the BEST time of year here. Bugs are going bye-bye and the colors are starting to show. We've already had a few frosts, so the tender annuals totally got wasted. I got some firewood stacked, still need lots more, and the tractor and snowblower are lubed up and ready to go to work! My favorite wintertime activity is plowing the snow with the ATV because I'm totally queeah like that!
Your temps there in Utah would be the death of me! I'm "genetically engineered" to be comfortable in the lower temps northern New England has to offer, know what I'm sayin? ;-)
East Central Indiana
It probably was from a Band Booster fundraiser. Remember the band contests at the State Fair?
It would actually be more appropriate to say it was in East Central Indiana - Muncie-Anderson area.
city. CNN or Comedy Central?
z
34 right now, central Oregon coast range....
20 miles inland from the Pacific Ocean. May get up to 47 today, woo hoo!
was thinking of moving to central FLA from Miami
still praying for all those folks who got hit in the 40-mile range that this tornado went through......
Port Authority and probably Grand Central (sm)
have lockers, but have never used one, so I don't really know about availability and size.
Central WA - 4.09 a gallon. I'm selling my SUV! Anyone interested?
There are no lockers at Grand Central, but maybe Port Authority.

I am in west central Illinois and felt the earthquake.

Oh, forgot to mention saw hubby on Comedy Central 1 night with
of all persons, Andy Kaufman. People might remember him from Taxi and 1 time he decided he would go into wresting and surprised to see him and my husband in a match on the Comedy channel! Andy also decided to wrestle with women for awhile before his demise in his early life.
South here too...but

Hey ya all, I am from the south so
I am heading west. I loved visiting California also. I just love my traveling though, bitten by the bug years ago
Same here. I'm from the South, too. nm

3.39 here in south AL n/m

I'm further south than you
Down here near Albany, GA and FREEZING! Worst part is we don't have heat in our house, just little room heaters.
One trick I learned from my gram, turn the oven on and leave the door open a little. Don't leave it on long though or your electric bill will go up! But if you need to knock the cold off the kitchen that will do the trick.
I wish I had one of those snuggles blankets I keep seeing on TV!
Not just in the south.
I had a friend in North Dakota who also did this.
Come to South MS, down here everyone....sm
talks like me basically. I never knew it until I went up north and then I was like OMG. I talk way different than these people. I thought I talked like anyone else. I was wrong.
opinion on the south
I was rasied in Fayetteville NC and Charleston SC being the army brat that I am - I have to say that Charleston is a great family town, lots of things for the family and kids - parks museums, forts etc. The schools are exceelent and I loved it. I still have family and friends there and it is just beutiful. Affordable too. Employment for the others in you home is veried as well.
In the south we would call that
trailer folk trash- just not accepted
I am just south of Reno...
I could meet you at Brew Brothers for a microbrew....or two....or three.....
ENJOY!!
What part of the south are you in?
Where I live, deep south, women certainly go that. Do not put an overall blanket on each statement, especially about the south because we already have to live down what others think of the south.
Actually, no I cannot tell you live in the south because
I was raised here and have no idea what you are talking about. Cannibal- that sounds like UGH to me, big time and the other porkchop with all those trimmings. Never ever darling. By the way, what part of the south? South Florida??
Why would anyone think the south only likes
country?? Ugh. I have lived here all my life and I cannot stand it. My tastes are more opera, beautiful love sounds, Gershwin. I could not tell you 1 name of a country song. Please do not group us all together. Folks just making assumptions - again.
Say what, in the south we have double
names for males also, since when did you think it stopped at females?
Well, it's hot. I live in south MS, so it's hot.
And humid. But it's actually not as hot as some places up north!
I think I maybe just had not eaten much in the last few days. They don't let you give blood if you are anemic. I have been turned down many times because of that. I have to cut myself off of iced tea for a couple days then I'm usually okay to donate. I am just typing, had a latte, drinking some tea now, will eat some stuff in a while. Maybe I am tired, too, it's been a tad stressful around here recently. Maybe I will sleep tonight! That would be different. I should probably think about re-establishing my relationship with my Dr. since I finally do have ins. now.
yes, ma'am....where in south FL?
xx
Wow you must live in the south?
Never heard of jowl meat and hot water cornbread? I am a yankee so be nice...just never heard those foods before...sounds like a good time!
See how the south is slammed?
She says she is a yankee down below. Mother told me never to assume......
I am not slamming the south....just never
heard of any cooking like that anywhere else thats all. Was seriously interested in that type of food...always like to learn about new foods...please don't misunderstand and think I'm slamming anybody....just like the differences in all of us!
North/South
Doesn't matter what side we come from, we are all here for the same reason and by the same God. My grandfather used to tell me that the south did whatever they could to survive and the north had more money so they were technologically advanced and better educated. That changed a long time ago. I would say we are all pretty even now days. My husband is from Germany and lived in WI before coming here to the heart of the bible belt, and he still can't wrap his mind around sweat tea or cornbread. He says I'm eating cardboard. Just a thought..
hi there - I'm in south florida....sm
and due to the multi-multi ethnic groups here - MULTITUDES of different groups - we have it all in the supermarkets....
You never had chopped liver? Never eaten chicken livers and onions together just fried up? Never had chicken livers wrapped in bacon and then cooked? Ramaki's I think they are called (can't remember)....
The Argentinians I just read eat twice as much beef as Americans....not a good thing...*lol*
When I first moved to the south, I once saw this guy sm
mowing a lawn (up a steep hill) with short shorts, cowboy hat and cowboy boots. Obviously, the boots were slippery so he kept slipping and trying to dig his heels in the grass. I almost crashed from laughing so hard.
South Beach here.
I started South Beach just today since the New Year fell in the middle of the week. My husband and I have done it before and it really works pretty much effortlessly. I am working two jobs from 8:00 - 1:30 (Real Estate) and my transcription job from 2:00 - 10:30, so this seems to be the only way to lose weight for me given the fact that I have no free time or energy to exercise. We did it before last spring and the weight loss is quick and pretty painless once you get over the initial carb withdrawal. I would love some support and could offer some as well. You can e-mail me directly at mandie573@yahoo.com. Thanks and good luck.
