Some Southern Stuff
I went poking around the internets today and found some Southern links for you:
1) This is my favorite. Looking at the Project Alabama galleries, I came across this anecdote - about biscuits. (p.s. Seriously, check out PA. It's a remarkable organization.)
"After I had been living by myself for awhile, I brought a boyfriend around for Sunday lunch with my family. When the meal was almost over and everyone was feeling good and relaxed, my grandfather - in his deepest baritone voice - questioned my boyfriend over the table... 'Does she make a good breakfast biscuit?' he asked, pointing my way. Silence fell and my boyfriend paused for what seemed like an eternity. Luckily, he was clever enough to gather his senses about him and answer, 'I don't know - I've never been there to try one!' Everybody had a good laugh and nothing was ever said about it again."
2) I really need this t-shirt.
(it says 'remember' inside the heart)
3) Redux Studios - it's a non-profit arts space in Charleston. Part of me would love to work at a place like that.
4) VA Senator George Allen (the 'macaca' guy) claimed on Fox News that Virginians don't really care about the remark he made. Uh-huh. Maybe he ought to broaden his social circle a little bit.
