Next FFN "Field Trip"

[Cleo]

I love black beans and yellow rice, vegetarian sushi, Boca burgers, bicycle riding and kayaking.

I don't fish, I don't eat meat, I try to avoid fried food, I don't own a gun, I drive a sports car, I don't believe in god, am I at risk of being excommunicated from the south?

Just leaves more for the rest of us... we need more people like you.

Damn, bicycling and kayaking in the snow just ain't no fun.

Both my partner and I often wear wife beater tank tops though. Does that give me a southern pass?

Are you Southern by birth? Or by relo?

I'm writing you a prescription for Catfish, Pulled Pork BBQ and a Ruger .22

Like the commercial says, "Trust me, I'm a Doctor"

Well that explains a lot. Especially all the NY and Latin accents around here.

I do have a white trash side of my family that I don't have anything to do with. Some of them do actually live in trailers and my nephew ran off with my sister in law and married her so I guess that counts for some southern influence.

"White trash" and "Southern" are not synonymous.

True, my bad. They are hillbilly white trash southern from my mother's first marriage living somewhere in northern Florida these days. I did speak to my half brother not long ago (he tried to hit me up for money). He told me that I should move up there because it is just like Fort Lauderdale was back in the seventies. Odd how you have to go north in Florida to find southern folks.

Nor are the mutually exclusive.

Truth be told, I've met any number of white trash folks from all over the world.

Here in south Florida we have a pretty good collection of trash people of all races but white trash people have become the minority as south Florida has become more urban.

try south east London, some of the nastiest white trash you will ever meet. And lots of them are black.
