They are obviously not good at math b/c my amounts only add up to 95%....shouldn't it be 100%? Does that mean I have 5% other?

When I was younger, I went on a trip with people from all over the US. There were about 15 of us from Louisiana. We got the biggest kick out of figuring out all of the regional dialects and teaching each other about our own.
What do you call it when you put something where it goes? I "put it up".

That's one of my favorite Southern expressions!
Being a Yankee, I put it away or clean up:
"Put away those toys." or
"Clean up that mess!"

How about "saving"? Where does that one come from?

I don't recognize "saving"- can you use it in a sentence? I know "fixin" and "might could" (sometimes I actually will use that one!! hee hee!  ) but not "saving"...
