Someone should note that the proper initial salutation in Georgia is "Hey". Only after an exchange of "Hey's" can one use "Y'all" or discuss trucks and dogs. Of course, when addressing elders or managers the formal tense is used such as "Hey mister Pruitt" etc.

That "hey is a longer word than a yankee might think from looking at it; more like "haayy" and maybe without the "h" .
