Moving to Birmingham, AL

[Larry Hill]

A few things that will help with the transition to Alabama, well only two things. 1. listen to Jeff Foxworthy, this will help you pick up on the nuance of Alabama speech. 2. learn the state yell, "Roll Tide" as fast as you can.

If you can't find Foxworthy, Larry the cable guy will do in a pinch. The cassette tapes are most times at the cash register of the smaller truck stops.

I'm sure the other people on the forum will have suggestions on how to make a speedy and seamless transition to another part of God's Country.

Larry the Cable Guy used to be a regular caller on a local rock station in Tampa, FL. He used to call on the Ron & Ron show, and was hilarious. He actually was a cable guy, and the radio station was his initial launch to stardom.

Here are some references for the South.

You let your twelve-year-old daughter smoke at the dinner table... in front of her kids.
You think Genitalia is an Italian airline.
The Halloween pumpkin on your front porch has more teeth than your spouse.
Last year you hid Easter eggs under cow pies.
You've been married three times and still have the same in-laws.
You think a woman who is "out of your league" bowls on a different night.
Jack Daniel's makes your list of "Most Admired People."
You wonder how service stations keep their restrooms so clean.
Anyone in your family ever died right after saying, "Hey, y'all watch this!"
You've got more than one brother named 'Darryl.'
You think that Dom Perignon is a Mafia leader.
Your wife's hairdo was once ruined by a ceiling fan.
You go to your family reunion looking for a date.
Your Junior/Senior Prom had a Daycare.
You think the last words to The Star Spangled Banner are, "Gentlemen, start your engines."
You lit a match in the bathroom and your house exploded right off its wheels.
You take a six-pack cooler to church.
You had to remove a toothpick for your wedding pictures.
The bluebook value of your truck goes up and down, depending on how much gas it has in it.
You have to go outside to get something out of the 'fridge.
One of your kids was born on a pool table.
Your dad walks you to school because you are both in the same grade.
You need one more hole punched in your card to get a freebie at the House of Tattoos.
You have flowers planted in a bathroom fixture in your front yard.
Ya can't get married to yer sweetheart 'cause there's a law against it.
You dated one of your parents' current spouses in high school.
You think loading the dishwasher means getting your wife drunk.
Your school fight song is "Dueling Banjos."
Your toilet paper has page numbers on it.

Hope this helps Michael and welcome.

BTW, Florida is not part of the South, it is retirement land for Yankees.
It is also home to college football powerhouses. FSU, UCF, FL, UM, USF.

Thanks everyone for the welcomes and pm's. Jed Pennington got us in touch with Adam Davis and he's going to take care of us which is very nice of him for never even meeting us before. Looking forward to Belle Rose!!!

[Chad Rhodes]

Welcome to the South. We do things differently here, and sometimes at our own pace. But we're ok with that. Also, never assume that a man who talks slow thinks slow.

Which makes those of us who are in the South very happy.

Michael, after all your hard work you finally get pot legalized and then you move! Nice that you can leave the snow shovel behind though. Looks like you will be the new threat in D2.

Safe travels,
Tracy
