what states are considered the south?

...and just about anything bordering those that isn't Texas, since it has its own forum. If you ever see Confederate flags on pickups near you, then you're probably in the South. ;-)

Virginia, Florida and Kentucky. Don't think Oklahoma would qualify for the South. I think it would be considered in the mid-west. Though FLA is in the southeast, 'us southerners' really don't think of FLA as a 'Southern' state in the traditional sense. But regionally it is included...not a bad thing because of all the world class golf courses there!

anything west of the Mississippi is not considered "the south". South is ... south of the Mason Dixon line, east of the Mississippi. And consists of coastal states. West VA is the exception as it is still "legally" a part of Virgina having never been "legally" separated from the parent state.

The confusion arrises when you mix in Confederate War allegiances. Many other states were sympathetic to the Souths stance of States Rights. And therefore found along side of the Southern Confederation of States.

I don't know anything about Jeb, or for that matter, his brother W. Whatever it takes for our country to have a legitimate government.

Louisiana I don't have to go through another hot southern summer here in Baton Rouge?

Thomas E. King · 11-19-2003 08:20 PM

Brownsville, El Paso, Phoenix, or even San Diego! Being in the south of the continental USA has nothing to do with being in "The South" ... as you already knew ;-) Humorous response however, I to wish it was that easy!

Manning in the way!

E12er · 11-20-2003 12:11 PM

this weekend. It's gonna be the toughest day of his young career. He can't outrun Spears, Lavilais, or for that matter anyone on our defense. Ouch.

I can't wait. Geaux Tigers!

You still live in BR? I went to LSU for eight years, yep, eight. Lived in the house behind the Chimes for four years. It was stupid fun.

Sounds like Animal House....."Eight years of college, down the drain"!
I lived in the Embassy Apts. next to the LSU golf course on Gourier Ave. Just a short walk to Mike's cage. Graduated about 30 years ago.

The Embassy. One spring and summer. No golf course there now, just gameday parking.

Animal House: Zero point zero. Fat drunk and stupid is no way to go through life son.

I partied hard, but actually got some stuff done. BS in physics, MS in Electrical Engineering. The MS was just because I didn't want to leave. Hadn't found 'the one'. I uped the search and found a perfect girl, that's when I made sure to get my thesis in on time.

Drinking age was 18 when I went, so things are most likely different now.

You still live in BR?

My 15 year old son and two of his buds are driving out to Colorado today for some skiing.

E12er · 11-21-2003 11:38 AM

Taking my boat out this weekend. I'm too old to ski on the hard stuff. No thumbs left.

Hot boudin, cold cous-cous, come on Tigers lets push push push!

Geaux Tigers!
