A couple of years ago I went with a friend to pick up a trailer west of Syracuse, NY. I can't remember the small town we were in but, I can say that the people there were as nice as anywhere I've ever been. I mentioned the reputation people from New York have in the south and the guy who had the trailer and all his employees said that we were seeing the real New York. They said that the people of New York city gave all New Yorkers a bad rep., they told us they hated to go to the city because people there were so rude. So yeah, there are good people everywhere, especially in small towns.

Hopefully someday people will see that we quaint southerners have something going and they will jump on board. When I'm in need I know there are those I can count on because they have counted on me and things go much smother in life when people treat each other with value.

You can depend on people to smother you?
Hell, I can get in on smothering people!
