I am from the north, and all I have to say is thank god I'm not a Southern Belle!! I love to chew gum, drink a cold can of soda from the can, use bad language, and I happily have no table manners. And furthermore, I recently vacationed in the South, and several southern women made it clear that they did not like me because I was from the North. So what happened to that thing about smiling sweetly while telling a person in your head to go to hell...
