You can get grits in Ohio, the long cooking kind. (blackeyed peas and okra, too) Even my yankee kids eat them! And polecats and skunks smell the same, too. LaNelle, a southern yankee

As a youngster I was invited Snipe hunting many times off Santa Fe Pike in Maury County but never caught any!!! A friend of mine from New England visited Tennessee and we had breakfast at a country restaurant. I asked if he wanted grits and ham to which he replied to the waitress, "Never had grits so I'll try ONE."
I still don't get it....a polecat is a skunk?
OK, me too. From TN,to abt 200 yrs in so. IL to suburb of Chicago...... What is a polecat?
Get near one and you will !!!!!!

I want to thank all of you who have taken the time to send me a Happy Birthday greeting. It was very nice you all thought of me. I got some really great birthday gifts, thanks to rootsweb. I have come very close of finding my lost roots. I am so close to my problem lines. If I had not been on these lists, I would never have been able to find them. Appreciate all the help and interest that many of you offer. I try very hard to reciprocate, though, time, many times slows me down. Thank-you one and all. Happy hunting. Sooz
