I'm now more convinced than ever that you've never spent any significant amount of time in the southern US.Originally posted by Al B. Sure! View PostWell since you and Ozzy both think it's Devil's Night, that must be some wacky Detroit and Midwest term. In the actual important parts of America (ie- the Northeast), it's called Mischief Night.
And yeah these Southerners need to remember that the Confederates were a bunch of Un-American TERRORISTS fighting against the American people and freedom!If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

The thing is that people from Jersey and New York talk very differently from Philadelphians. Granted, we're more similar to each other than to weirdos who say things like "Devil's Night" or "cot/caught are pronounced the same" but I don't think anyone would mistaken a Philadelphian for a New Yorker or vice versa."Flutie was better than Kelly, Elway, Esiason and Cunningham." - Ben Kenobi

With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

Anyone who doesn't know what Devil's Night is clearly hasn't read Galnemer's novel yet.
