When can I call myself a Southerner?

[Imran Siddiqui]

I really enjoyed hangin' with JohnT. He and family are good people. One of these days I'll even post the pics of our meet and eat at Chez Guevara's.

Ever think of owning a restaurant with that moniker .

Imran, I'm just talking about how abusing sex appeal.

Why is it much much worse out there . The suprising thing was that it was in Atlanta, a progressive city!

Okay, I'll be a myn then.

I'm just saying sex appeal is more abused in the north. We have enough good looking women down here that we don't need to try to get it with interviewies.

Hehehe, sure thing.

Yes, but womyn are treated more like dirt in the south. In the north womyn are treated with more respect. Just compare how many womyn partners there are in Northern law firms compared the Southern law firms.

But that is what your schools' career services (or at least certain people in career services) teach, so you do need to try it .

Not in this state.

I'd like to own a resteraunt someday, though. (Yes, I know, how bourgeois of me.) Hopefully with Theben and Dad, but Dad said after BK, he's not really interested in doing resteraunt work anymore. (Though he coups talking about Fast Eddie's Greasy Burgers and Fries ) I was thinking something more along the lines of an Italian resteraunt based on our family's region of Italy, La Marche.

Italian restaurant! Move to Atlanta then, please . My g/f keeps complaining about the lack of good Italian restaurants there. At least nothing even close to being as good as in Jersey .

[chequita guevara]

Maybe I'll open a branch there. You're gonna have to wait a decade or so.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Ah well, I'll wait .

Womyn are treated with great respect here. Just because there are more womyn partners up north doesn't mean they get more respect. It could be that they are attracted to the dirty politics up there.

When you find your sister attractive and live in a trailer.

Don't fall for his diabolical plans, Chegitz.

He's trying to convert you into a capitalist business owner!

You're just angry because you New Yorkers can't handle anything larger than a midsize, much less a trailer.

I was born in a trailer, and my sisters are attractive (but they're step-sisters, so I guess that doesn't count).

BULL****! The reason there aren't as many womyn partners in the South is because the glass ceiling is lower. It is the worst kept secret is that the South treats womyn more like objects than any other part of the country does. Where are the best Womyn Studies Programs in universities? Yep the NorthEast (with Rutgers being #1... *inflates chest in show of pride*).

We allow womyn to be more equal up here, while the South is just learning how to do that. Why do you think more Northern womyn end up going to the major cities, like Atlanta, Dallas, Raleigh, etc, in the South (as opposed to the midsized or even small cities)?

You Southerners have a far, far way to go before you have womyn treated equally with men. The cities are, thankfully, very close to how things are in the North.

Che....saying "ya'all" isn't quite enough though.

That may get you to Honorary Sutherner status, but unless you make frequent use of "all ya'all" then you can't really be one of the elites.

Among some of the other requirements (note - this may vary from state to state, but here's a partial SC list)

Aspiring Sutherners Must:

renounce all other forms of sugar except Dixie Crystal

always drink your tea sweet. Dead giveaway that you're a yankee otherwise.

eat grits AT LEAST four times a week (and not that instant crap, either...only REAL grits count)

have a gun rack in or on your vehicle, whatever it may be (note that this specifically includes sports cars, luxury automobiles, motorcycles, mopeds, and bicycles).

be able to name at least four people among your circle of friends with a double first name (Billy Bob, Lou Jack, Willa Mae, Franie Mae, etc).

A bunch of others, but that should get you started....

(see all ya'all later!)
