Did he use the word "jeans" in the same way we mean them, to mean blue denim? I wonder.

I found that interesting, too. Should be an original quote....here is the source

This letter is in the Cable Collection of the Tulane University Library. A portion of it appears in L. L. C. BiklB, George W. Cable: His Life and Letters ( N e w York, 1928), 22-23; and from that source an excerpt is included in Robert Selph Henry, "First with the Most": Forrest (Indianapolis, 1944), 437.

My momma always told me life is like a box o’ choc’lates.

You never know what you’re gonna get.

Well, if you are going to quote screenplays, instead of quoting facts...

typical yankee with no heritage and no homepage

but brimming with ignorant self righteousness

isn’t that why our kin killed nearly 400,000 of them last go around come to think of it

(sarc..sorta)

lol...oh the irony, now it’s white southerners like us that keep their sorry asses from the socialist abyss and even our grip is slipping sadly

would that they could mind their own house but then again that’s never been their strong suit...

[john in springfield]

That’s all I got to say about that.
