When I first went to work in Savannah, Georgia, I was introduced to the secretary, who said her name was pie-it. I said pie-it? She said, yes, pie-it, "P A T".

Maybe off topic, but I also made the mistake of offering a woman a piece of chewing gum. She made it very clear to me that southern ladies DO NOT CHEW GUM!!!
