I waited 'til a number of other shoppers were around us to announce to my wife, "Oh, honey, remember when you aksed me what an oxymoron is? There's a great one on that book, Southern Culture. I expected some hostile reaction from the natives, but realized they had no idea what I had just said. LOL

My goodness, I haven't encountered such a display of sophisticated wit since the last time I attended a reception at the British Embassy.

LOL, indeed. It is precisely because of this sort of infantile, reflexive derision that some of us have begun to stand up for the sociocultural heritage the South imparts to us.

Don't mind Hank, ladies and gentlemen; if he were adequately educated he would be familiar with Southern contributions to law, literature, and history, but alas! as he so freely demonstrates, we can't hold him to the standards of behavior evidenced by mannerly and broadly-read people.
