I usually just start yelling "representative" into the phone until I get a person on the other end and hope that I'm talking to someone in the USA and not overseas.

When you suddenly disappear, I worry about you.<br /><br />I loathe Facebook, so I'm not on it, and I have no clue whether an actual person read what you wrote. Yet, I can't imagine a scenario in which Facebook would give a pass on the same words when spoken by a Southerner that it would ban when spoken by a non-Southerner. I also don't remember the word kidnap being freely used in a humorous way, but then I left Mississippi in 1986. I do remember Dixie Springs, of course, with its beer service (back then, Lincoln County (Brookhaven) didn't allow beer sales). I also remember the artesian well across 51 highway from the lake. Did you ever make it around there? Plus, I remember the account of a skier falling down amidst hundreds of moccasins. At the time, I believed it, but then I believed pretty much anything that adults told me.Snowbrushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00436087215476479042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36879565.post-4753162221538939102022-04-20T05:08:32.325-07:002022-04-20T05:08:32.325-07:00We are interested in seeing how the training goes ...We are interested in seeing how the training goes for using the buttons.
