I grew up about 50 miles south of Florence (rural Walker County) and currently
live in Butler County, PA. So I have seen more than my share of both Northern
and Southern ignorant bigots. Only difference I've seen is that the Southern
food is MUCH better. Except, maybe NYC pastrami!

Edit: This dude would make a fortune in the NOLA French Quarter!
