Wow! I guess you did.

Now, you see how desperate I am to establish these contacts before I make the move.

I can't thank you enough for helping me out!
No problem. And thanks for letting me know you're the same person. Now, I don't have to find you a second time on facebook. :D

Now check your private messages. :)

IMO, one of the biggest use of a misnomer of which most people in this country are not aware. :eek:

Look at a map. Anyone who does not live in one of the five boroughs or on the island conveniently refer to themselves as "upstaters" to avoid the connection with the city. :cool: Hell, I've even heard folks from Yonkers refer to themselves as upstaters, at times.

In most areas, to be an "upstater", you would live in the Northern half of the state. In NY, you can live on the Southern border and still be an "upstater". :D

Although Ric Fair calls Charlotte home, he is from Minnesota. Whoooooo!

I went to other direction; I'm a Southerner living in the north. When I moved, I realized that "foul" was only one syllable. :D

I am not sure that Northern Virginia counts as the south. I will ask around, but you may just be a Damn Yankee that became a good Yankee.:D

This is a pretty timely thread. I was born and raised in Northern California (except for a stint in college on the Central Coast) and I just found out I'm moving to Houston this September. Talk about stranger in a strange land. :D

NorthWESTERN Virginia is very much part of the South, according to the CSA (Confederate States of American) memorial on the courthouse lawn.

And Steve M, why you got to be hatin' on the ovine?
