40 Yankee...:D

70% Dixie and I grew up in New Jersey ! I think my daughters talk funny !! :p :a:

34% (Yankee). A definitive Yankee.

The South will rise again!

Yeah right, just high enough to kiss my Yankee ass!

Dixie
 

61%. Of course living in Virginia for several years kinda helped. They screwed up on the night before halloween question though. I'have always known it as gate night. Derived from when you would as a prank take off the front gate of somebody's fence and hide it the night before Halloween.

Bill

:b:

66% dixie, not bad for a guy growing up in Southwest, by God, Oklahoma!

Trav

70% Dixie...thought it would be higher...

Larry

73% deep south Dixie
Travis

62% Dixie, which figures... but I gotta say, "You all" is essentially Kentucky, but I recon they count the Blue Grass as Yankee, and "Sack" or "Poke" is the proper Ozark and south way to desribe a bag, don't care what their survey said...

I believe they are counting border states as Yankees... :D

57% (Dixie). Barely into the Dixie category.

I think growing up in a Navy family and living all around the country accounts for this middle of the road score :cl:

Drifter...
 

Even though lifelong from New Jersey,...I was very disappointed being: "45% (Yankee) Barely into the Yankee category". Believe Yankees in general are just too overly in awe and unwarrantedly respectful of their authoritarian betters, to my liking. Besides,...I have no betters.

Hell and: "Shit-far (actually: "Fire")", I've always pretty-much considered myself: "A Yankee/Rebel" most of my adult life, which I'm fairly sure that some Good Old Nashville Boys (1-Carter and 2-Sullivans) and good friends from 10th Recon. Co. would attest to,...even from way-back-when Basic at Fort Riley, Kansas or even as trained killers on The NATO Team :D (just jokin) stationed at Kitzingen and later as 3rd Recon Sqdn/7th Cavalry stationed at Bamberg, West Germany.

Neil: "A Yankee/Rebel" :d: :b:
