Dear CB: Bein's as you're from Georgia, and Bein's as you are likely familiar with the Atlanta area, I can certainly understand your wishing to hide the silverware from those "Yankees". Got to tell you my Georgia story. Many years ago, when Atlanta was still a sleepy little town with many evidences left over of the Civil War (like cannonballs embedded in wooden railroad trestles) I took a "Georgia Peach" home to meet her family. It was the first time I was ever out of the state of Fla. alone. We arrived at her parents home about dusk. In the backyard her father and grandfather had a toy sandbox filled with a recreation of the battle of Gettisburg. With great pride, they showed it to me and explained, had Lee done this instead of that he would have won the battle and sued for peace and the South would be a seperate nation. I, being from Fla. and further south then them, figured I had the right to say, Yeah, but he didnt. They threw me out of the house by now in the dark and I forlornly drove back to Orlando, Fla. all night never to see that girl again. So, again, I understand your "silverware" comment. haha. JDN
