TIPS FOR NORTHERNERS MOVING SOUTH

  1. Save all manners of bacon grease. You wil be instructed how to use it later.
  2. If you forget a Southerner's name, refer to him (or her) as "Bubba". You have a 75% chance of being right.
  3. During snow, if you run your car into a ditch, don't panic. Four men in the cab of a four wheel drive with a 12 pack of beer and 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.
  4. Don't be suprised to find movie rentals and bait in the same store.
  5. Don't buy food from the movie store.
  6. Be advised: "He needed killin" defense is valid here.
  7. remember "Y'all" is singular. "All Y'all" is plural. "All Y'all's" is plural possessive.
  8. If there is the prediction of the slightest chance of even the most miniscule accumulation of snow, your presence is required at the local grocery store. It doesn't matter if you need anything from the store, it's just something you're supposed to do.
