Re: Yankee or Dixie?

WoodRust, take the test, there are some Canadian and far Northeast U.S. terms too. You might just find out there was a Dixie in the wood pile.

100/0?<br />I dunno. Grew up in Texas and joined the navy in '86.<br />Part Irish, German, Swedish, Choctaw, Comanche, and probably something I'm leaving out.<br />Been stationed in New England for almost 2 years with a few months left.<br />A blast to live in so many cultures, dialects, etc.<br />I tend to confuse people every place I go with my talk.<br />Don't type like I talk, lemme tell ya.

39% Yankee. Must be because I am from California, went to school in Wisconsin and Washington State, and lived in every region of the US except the new england area.
