13. 76% Dixie, y'all!
And that's weird because I've now lived more years in
Illinois, Michigan, Maryland, and DC than I did in Texas.

14. 58% Dixie; Barely in Dixie
Edited on Mon Apr-03-06 10:31 AM by last_texas_dem
Cool, they've added the term "wrapping" for putting toilet paper on a house. I'd taken the test before and could never find a term that fit what everyone I knew called this process. Apparently it's some weird Texas thing...

just barely in Yankeedom. That's cool - I was born and raised in New Jersey, but live in Maryland - no wonder it is basically half and half.

20. 28% Dixie
Which figures. I'm suprised I got that much. Yankee Doodle Dandy.
But I'll have you know one of the only ancesters I have,(isn't really famous) who has some historical significance was Jefferson Davis' wife.
I've never been sure how I felt about that. Take that back-- I never thought about it much. Looked her picture up once.
