:lol: On Languish, whenever I say something about being a Southerner, people tell me I'm not a Southerner.

Whenever something about the South that is at least vaguely insulting comes up, I *am* a Southerner.

IOW, I'm only a Southerner when that identity can be used against me.  When I want to be one (i.e. try to take pride in something related to the South), I'm not allowed to be.

If I was a black man, Languish would be DA MAN.  :mad:

You're never a Southerner. Neil is always a Canadian. My grandfather, who was probably the wisest person I've known, chose to immigrate from Canada to the American South. :)

I voted Murdoch.

Black is interesting. He did have considerable national influence, was very ambitious, tried to go international, but ran out of money financing a silly, grasping lifestyle, so he sold off his Canadian base and then got caught. He could have been.
