I'm sure one of the folks from down under or one of the Brits would sit in my kitchen during a family dinner and be as lost as I would be in their home... sari Heck, my family comes up from Georgia and my wife and kids at times have difficulty understanding them especially after I get a beer or two into them and the stories start-a-commin’. Heck at dinner once i remember my unc askin’ to be passed the bald tatters and my son just looked at him as if he was an alien. Not sure why, but call me JJ.

Im still trying to work out what a redneck is Where we are from sounds like sunburn That's about it... It comes from the working class who have "rednecks" from working outside in the sun. It was originally applied to construction workers, but has been expanded to include pretty much everyone from the Southeastern US (although we have our share in rural California)... Some have even made careers out of it, like Jeff Foxworthy. John

Im still trying to work out what a redneck is Where we are from sounds like sunburn redneck..... means soo many different things.. Around here being redneck is similar to being hillbilly.. allthough hillbilly is a bit worse.. it's basically a term for anyone not being from a city.. the country folks if you will.. farmers and ranchers and such are thought of as redneck.. as are folks who are 'blue collar'... When used in the proper context it's a joke or a term of endearnment.. Lord knows everytime my uncle brings home a broken down car to work on or comes back from hunting with a deer tied onto the roof of his Geo (I'm not making th at up) my aunt always has a comment or two about being married to a redneck... I personally think it's a state of mind.. I can be as hillbilly as the next door neighbors if I feel like it... Canon 30D BG_E2 Grip Rebel XT BG-E3 battery grip
