Default Re: It's Sumter NOT Sumpter

I have to admit, being EXTREMELY southern, I do occasionally say some of the things above.

My grandmother used words I've never heard from anyone else.
My husband was at a loss with her sometimes, I was always 'plainin'. :dontknow:
Her southern was almost like another language to him, Buckeye that he was...

040 And when playing pool (billiards) I still love to get the StriPed balls.

But Russ, SumPter did drive me nutz too!
