Here in south central Kentucky, we had
-10 degree wind chill Sunday night, then 50s predicted for 12/24 and 12/25.
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.
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??
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.
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!
it may be different where you live but in South
sickening, really.
Hope you don't live in the South!! LOL (nm)

i live in south alabama and it has been about
Parents were letting their kids walk to school in shorts!!! I won't even let mine walk to school with a coat, jacket, scarf and gloves in 30 degree weather!! I guess they don't mind paying the doctor bills for when they get sick...
I live in the south and know my accent is truly southern
but I find Paula to be over the top and seemingly a put on with hers. Most I have met from different spots in the US and different countries love to hear me talk.
Is it allergies from all the pollen? Do you live in the South? nm

I live in the south. Her accent sounds really put on and fake to me, BUT
I actually do think she is a neat lady. No, I do not eat the types of things she cooks. Brother, none of it is one bit healthy! Fried everything and pounds of butter in everything. Yes, it tastes great I am sure, but who can afford those calories on a regular basis?
I live in the south and my landlord told me NO SMOKING before she would rent to me...

I am in a biracial marriage, not thick skinned, live in the deep south, have
a mixed daughter who is 32 years old and she told me going to school she had the best of both worlds. Live in a very nice mixed neighborhood, just don’t know where this person lives who has to be thick skinned. Has never happened to me.
Snow?! What snow? LOL I live in south...sm
Mississippi. We rarely have snow so I can't relate, but I think the snow is beautiful though. I tell ya, a couple of years ago my husband and I went to upstate New York during March or April, not sure now which. I froze to death. I seen enough snow to get my fill. It was a bitter cold too. I am not used to that. A cold front had come through so I don't know if it normally snows there that late in the year or not.
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.
I do live in Arkansas - my parents live up in Branson so I'm in Missouri quite often!

Calling all you animal lovers - live and let live or intervene? - sm
I have a dilemma. I am an animal lover and have something I cannot come to a conclusion about. At a restaurant where I eat lunch every Friday with a friend of mine, I have noticed a young male kitty hanging around outside looking for food. This past week he ran up to my friend and rubbed her legs and quietly meowed. I purposely did not try to pet him because I knew I would get attached and ignored him. Well, ever since then I find myself thinking about him and wanting to rescue him. Meanwhile, I already have 4 inside cats (2 rescues, 2 Maine Coons) and hubby really does not want another cat in the house because a few years ago I promised we would never have more than 4 (had up to 5 at one point previously). I actually have a huge screened deck he could stay on indefinitely because I do not believe in letting cats run loose for their own safety. I could provide plenty of food, a warm place to sleep, and veterinary care. At some point I would even probably work him into our household, but I just cannot do it at the moment. Just not sure I would be doing right by that kitty because I am sure he would be upset and confused for a good while as to where he was and what was going on, but is that better than being hungry and cold? I know there are lots of animal lovers out there. What does everyone think?? 
I'm a live-and-let-live person but had to draw the line
after I found HUGE holes in the walkway between my house and barn. I thought they were just little mice stealing grain, but then I spotted one and it was a HONKIN RAT! My poor olderly cat was out there with me at the time and saw it, and he hissed at it and ran away!
I asked for advice on what to do at a local agricultural board, because I have other animals and didn't want to use poison and conventional traps weren't working. They advised putting a large pale of water out with some seeds floating in it, figuring the rats would go for the seeds and end up drowning. That was a no-go because the water just froze up solid. I wound up reluctantly going with Decon because I just can't have my house destroyed. I haven't had seen any more rats or evidence of them stealing grain, so I'm guessing they have died. The guy at the grain store promised me the rats would not die in the building and stink the joint up, rather they would crawl off and die outside. I don't know if I believe that, as it is still winter here and decomposition would be holding off until it warms up. We'll see, but at least the destruction has been halted.
Good luck and I too say have no mercy, because you just don't need them destroying hour house or causing a spark chewing wires and burnin' the place down. It is war!
 (How un-PC is this emoticon?!)
Make them live outside? This is so funny! Ours live outside, where they WANT to be. sm
Not all dogs want to be in "indoor" dogs, mind you. They have plenty of space to run around and play, fenced, and if they are brought in during bad weather they whine at the back door to go back out! So before you comment on outside dogs, you really need to get your facts straight. Seriously. Not all dogs are made or want to be inside all of the time.
South here too...but
nm
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.
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?
yes, ma'am....where in south FL?
xx
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!
