JARAH'S FLORIDA

If you are from the northern states and planning on visiting or moving
to the South, or the mountains of North Carolina, there are a few things
you should know that will help you adapt to the difference in lifestyles:

If you run your car into a ditch, don't panic. Four men in a four-wheel
drive pickup truck with a tow chain will be along shortly. Don't try to
help them; just stay out of their way. This is what they live for.

Don't be surprised to find movie rentals and bait in the same store.
Don't buy food at this store.

Remember, "y'all" is singular, "all y'all" is plural, and "all y'all's"
is plural possessive.

The first Southern statement to creep into a transplanted Northerner's
vocabulary is the adjective 'big ol' truck or 'big ol' boy. Most
Northerners begin their Southern-influenced dialect this way. All of
them are in denial about it.

Be advised that 'He needed killin' is a valid defense here.

If you hear a Southerner exclaim, "Hey, y'all, watch this," you should
stay out of the way. These are likely to be the last words he'll ever
say.

If there is the prediction of the slightest chance of even the smallest
accumulation of snow, your presence is required at the local grocery
store. It doesn't matter whether you need anything or not. You just have
to go there.

Do not be surprised to find that 10-year-olds own their own shotguns,
they are proficient marksmen, and their Mammas taught them how to aim.
