Reply #24: I Haven't And I Must Admit...

Honestly I think of it as another country. It's the only part of the US I haven't been through at least in passing -- I remember going on a cross country trip as a kid and my dad saying we couldn't go through the South because some cop would pull us over (CA plates) and and all these awful stories, and from when I was a kid my whole view of the South was shaped by those films of Beatle records being burned and all that. Then with that Dixie Chick thing last year, all that is just so bizarre to me. I'm an L.A. native and can't imagine such a thing, as people burning Beatle or Dixie Chick records!!

My positive images are all about MUSIC...Memphis & New Orleans specifically, those are two places I would like to go.

FL...ugh....this seems like a Banana Republic.
