As a Maryland boy living in Alabama by way of Virginia, I can attest to a good bit of it. Especially #2 - one morning I was driving to work in Atlanta on I-85, and damned if there weren't two indigenous populants of the local trailer park, pickup parked in the median, field cleaning a deer that didn't make it across the road the night before. And you thought all the jokes about roadkill cuisine were just that, didn't you? :-)
I lived in North Carolina and Tennessee. Been there, done that. LOL
God bless our troops wherever they may be.
