The one southern term I just can't wrap my mind around.

So I am country, and I am a southern guy but there is something that I just don't get.

That is the saying "ready aint it?"

Here is the story. I was at the Co-op the other day buying some diesel fuel and this old guy walked in. In the corner of the room was a dancing Santa that when you walked by it began to sing. If you know me then you know that just seeing this thing was irritating. I dont like Christmas music until about 2 weeks before Christmas...It is just so repetitive.

But anyways, so everytime this Santa would dance this guy would look at me and say these words..."Thats ready aint it?"

I started thinking, what does that mean? Like is it ready to leave, or is it ready to sing or is it ready? Ready for what? I think that it is saying like..."That is cool" But off all the country saying...I dont get this one.

If you know any help let me know...I may look it up on wikipedia. haha just kidding

Mustache

So my uncle has never shaved his lip.

For some reason that is the funniest thing in the world to me. Seriously he has never shaved the hair below his nose, he has always had a mustache and boy does he.

Of course he said this at the thanksgiving meal and I immediately gave thanks for this information. I think that might be one of the redest things I have ever heard.

When he told me this information said, "I forgot you had a Sampson stache." If you do not know who Sampson is then read your bible, but he was not supposed to cut his hair because that was where his strength was, well it was actually it was in obedience to the commands of the Lord, but that is neither here nor there.

Anyways no you know who Sampson you make think that is funny.

Well the moral of this story is: Shave your lip at some point in your life. It makes for a healthy lifestyle and is a good thing to practice.
