I'm watching the Kentucky Derby |
|
I think I just went back in time watching that crowd...further solidifying my fear of the south.

8. Oh my God...they're discussing a $1,000 Mint Julep |
|
The ice is from the artic (so that's where it's really going to), special Woodfern Reserve, etc. It goes towards retired racing horses. At least it's a charity thing.
Now, I spend way too much money on cigarettes & alcohol, but I can't imagine $1,000 on a single drink.

11. The cup is solid gold and the stirrer is sterling silver. |
|
I wouldn't buy one either, but at least the money goes to a good cause.
And it's Woodford Reserve, Yankee heathen! :P

3. I have friends from the south and friends that moved down there. |
|
I know it's not all of you. It's some of you. I also don't like the accents, but I know that's not your fault and doesn't keep me from being friends with non-scary southerners.

14. One of my friend's doesn't have much of an accent unless drunk or driving. |
|
Once that road rage kicks in, it's one long rant about "us yankees!" It's actually pretty funny.
Of course, because of her, somewhere there is a picture in existence of me wrapped up in a confederate flag blanket. It will probably be used as blackmail one day.
