"It Burned Up in the Fire"

[kennyp2339]

I like everyone, I was down south for a while in my late teens into early 20's, wasn't for me, I need to see and enjoy the seasons, When someone would hear I was from NJ they would paint this picture of concrete jungles with garbage everywhere and smoke stacks blowing soot, I would just tell them that's Newark, go 60 miles west to the hills.

A few weeks later I asked Frank if he ever read that book about wood stoves that I gave him.
He said "No I never got around to reading it. That book burned up in the fire."

A bunch of men were sitting around and one noticed a persistent stench of body odor.
So he spoke up to declare, " Hey,somebody's deodorant is not working too well".

Another man responded, "It can't be mine,I don't wear any".

Why so casual? All I have to go on is what's written. It says all Yankees look down on southerners. I guess I just don't think that's so...

It's true. I met one once who didn't.

And I'm an odd mix.. a Jewish redneck Yankee about to become a "washed-ashore."

Seriously...born on Turner AFB in Albany, GA, raised in DC and NY, now living in Boston area, moving to Cape Cod fulltime in June!

I was a Yankee until I moved to Vermont, I have now been demoted to a "flatlander".

I have lived in the South since 2001. People tell me I am too mellow to be a Yankee. Not a bad thing, I guess.
