Then there's the phony southerns. Like my aunt who's from New Jersey and lives in Delaware next to a golfcourse in Delaware with her Doctor husband and subscribes to Southern Living...

I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- NedComment

Ah, ok -- Southerners are rebellious against their government, AND rebellious in their own families.Originally posted by MichaeltheGreat
They didn't kick me out. They just had one of those parental authority moments where they gave me the standard "if you're gonna live in our house, you're gonna live by our rules" speech, and I thought that was a splendid little piece of wisdom, and a simple solution to the issue to boot.
Kinda like..... secession.
And both approaches are stupid -- who'd have thunk it?

If you took South Jersey and stuck it in Virginia, you couldn't tell the difference.
The Virginians might wonder about the sudden influx of hicks...No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.Comment

Hey look! There's a railroad track. Let's build a town around it.
Only if it is small, dirty, and has one of the worst school systems in the state.“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect. I will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”

I was born in Knoxville. My Dad got a degree in engineering thanks to the G.I. bill and stayed on for a few years while working for the T.V.A. His family was from Paris, TN, my mother's family was from Memphis, TN. We left Tennessee when I was two because Dad wanted to pursue a career in electronics design. There just wasn't anything like that in the South in the early 1950s, so he took a job with G.E. in Syracuse, NY.Originally posted by Lincoln

Southern Identity? Are you crazy!!! There's no such thing for chrissakes... wait 500 years, then you're talking about an identity worth losing, this so called Southern Identity is little more then a fashion trend, a couple hundred years isn't enough to call a real identity or culture. You may as well get upset about 'Ebonyx' fading out as a language.

They have that camp still but it has been improved over the years. Also they built another camp in Spencer a couple of years ago. They are having financial problems now though. They are cutting back on the program and laying off staff.Originally posted by PLATO
Back in the day, they had a camp there with cabins to house the campers. Is it still there? What kind of facilities do they have now?Comment
