Title: Wait till they get a load of Slammy!
Post by Slammy on Dec 18th, 2003, 12:17pm
Well Gang,

It looks like Slammy will be relocated from Sunny Southern California to Raleigh, North Carolina ! :o

Unless I can find a better offer to stay, I should be out there around the June or July time frame...  :'(

I'm trying to list all the good things about North Carolina to help me make the transition... but I am stuck on ZERO!   ;)

Help me out!?!   :-[

Well Slammy, I live 6 miles from the beach right outside of Wilmington.  So I will be close by.  Other than I can't think of much good in NC.  Just me!  Anyway, let me know when you get here!  I am not far south of Raleigh, a couple of hours is all.  Plus Lil Deb is in Raliegh.

Great mountains in the west for skiing.

My favorite: Buxton, NC a.k.a. Cape Hatteras. Surf Fishing, beer, surfing, beaches, babes, beer, sun, beer and miles of open beaches to drive on and explore.
Did I mention BEER?

It is in the East.
It is in the South.

You do not need other reasons.  Trust me on this.  Raleigh is a hot bed of culture and sweet, intellectual goodness too.

I wish I was in the land of cotton, ole times there are not forgotten, look away, look away, look away, Dixie Land!!!!

Sing it with me!!!!

Title: Re: Wait till they get a load of Slammy!
Post by Paigelle on Dec 18th, 2003, 1:09pm
I am living in NC and refuse to sing Dixie.  These people move far to slow for me most of the time.  But my husband loves it here!  So here I sit and sulk.

Cheaper EVERYthing.  Lower taxes (this is, after all, the strong hold of the Republican party), better cost of living, lower crime, we dress better, fried foods are good for you, college football is religion, we have better manners, et al.

I could go on and on.

Sing it with me, Paigelle!!!!!

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh, a way down souuuuuuuuuttttthhh in DIXIE!!!!

Don't like any of the college football teams here.

But Brian, now we can talk about some good food!  You can eat some serious food here.  Nothing like Calabash style seafood platter!  I live too close to Wilmington for anyone to have manners.  The women are mostly uptight southern belles who are more concerned about the right color of pink lipstick and who their manicurist slept with to be polite.  But the food rocks!

The roads are better.
The bugs are bigger.
No contest on the fishing.
Few Californians.
Cost of living is much lower.
More Humidity.
Some pretty strange drivers, but they don't shoot at you.
Tax burden is lower, so more beer money.
Beer is pretty marginal, plentiful though.
The people are really from this planet.
Wonderful place for boating.
Surfing is so-so but uncrowded.
Its over 2000 miles from Oregon.

Thats fairly unbiased.

Ofcourse YMMV

Slammy, pay no attention to that "female" that warned you about this CLOWN!!!   She is a bitter ole bitty!

This is God's country here!  And some darn fine wimmins here too!  Nothing like lounging back with a nice Tanqueray Gin and Tonic (better than a mint julip) on the verandah, and watching the world go by!

Nice open country, NO Californy smog!  Great mountains, fantastic beaches, and one or two nice clusterbuddies!  I have to warn you about the rest of the clusterheads out in the area!  They are NUTS!!!  Ya gots these whacko wimmins, Little Deb, Paigella, NancyC, Elaine, Mia, NotH20, and even Roxy comes to town some too!  WOW!  Maybe I should leave the state!!!  And then you gots some refined southern gentlemen, like BrianY (who kisses great!) Patrick, Mikey, and of course, the sexiest of all ME!

So come on out and enjoy the good life!

Chuck

Post by Mr.Happy on Dec 18th, 2003, 7:32pm
Slam.....a few tips.

Practice the language. Start with a couple of marbles in your cheek.....then move on to talking thru molasses w/o spilling any.

Since you still have all your teeth, you're going to stick out like a sore thumb.

Grits are both a food and a humaniform.

Tin cents is different from tin cans...but not by much.

Put the moonshine in a bottlecap. Light it with a match. If it doesn't burn with a blue flame, don't drink it.....or at least not too much.

You'll hear these phrases a lot. Get used to it:

"You ain't from around here, are ya, boy?"    and

"Take down them panties....."

Good Ole Boy, not a Redneck.........

Post by Little Deb on Dec 18th, 2003, 7:50pm
Ok Slammy,

Here is my  [smiley=twocents.gif].

Here I am, in North Raleigh area.  Still not sure what I think about it, moving here from California, too.  Been here 2 1/2 years now.  It's ok.  The best thing I can tell you about the Raleigh area...I'm here!! ;;D ;;D ;;D

Lots of unusual, huge, bugs.  Lots of snakes.  Lots of beautiful golf courses.  3 hours from the beach, or 3 hours from the mountains. 3 hours to Norfolk.  8-10 hrs to Orlando.  8 1/2 hours from Nashville for the convention in July.

My husband works in Cary.  He drives about 35 min.  We live a little north of Raleigh, in Frankilin County.  Taxes are lower, houses cheaper, less crowded.  Now coming from California, Cary won't seem very crowded to you either.  But we wanted to have property.  Cary is overgrown, and expensive in comparison.

Anyway, we are having a get together at my house Jan. 31st weekend of clusterheads.  You and the family are welcome.  We have lots of floor space,and hotels nearby.  Kids are welcome.  You can stay here anytime on your travels, and I would love to drive you around the area, and show you the hot spots!  

What do you do, and who are you trasferring with??
We reloc'd with Wachovia.  

I am excited that you are coming here!!  Can't wait to meet you!  Hope you can make the Jan. get together.

IM me anytime, or email.  I can send you pics, maps, newspapers.

Yes, it is true, the people here are slow as hell, drive like crap, and pick their noses at red lights.  The food sucks in my book.  Don't care for collard greens or grits.  It's hard to find a Starbucks.  Cigarettes are way cheaper.  There are actually alot of people here from California, New York, and Pennsyvania.  It is very pretty, and people are very nice.  The people at McDonald's still screw up your order, that's not just in California.  Krispy Kreme originated here!!  But there is only one damn store.  You have to buy the cold ones at the gas stations.

The rain storms are great.  The humidity sucks. No earthquakes.  But they close EVERYTHING in case of snow, ice, hurricanes, or a bad wind storm.  Electircity goes out alot, but not because the state didn't pay the bill!!  LOL

OK, shutting up.....little deb

Linda, darling, you are looking at the WRONG map!  You obviously don't live here!  There are more churches and preachers here, than fruitcakes in California!

Not only is this deeply in the bible belt, it is also (from what I have been told) the origin and headquarters of the KKK!

Such cultural advantages!

I resemble that remark.

The Bible-belt to me has always been right down the middle of the US....(no political intention here)  That, of course is not to say that the East coast has no churches of course......Even sin City where BobG lives has churches.  Even fruit-cake Central has churches.  Just ask all them celebs where they go to church.  huh huh?

(except for the nose-pickin' part...she says that like it's a BAD THING.....wtf?)

Talk about a great locale. What more could you want?

I'd trade the whole state of Pennsylvania for One Acre of North Carolina.......

Lil Deb is right people here can't drive for shit.  I don't eat collards or grits.  I am still not sure what the hell anyone eats that for.  But I am dead on the coast so I get fresh seafood, which is the best part of being on the coast.  

Now Deb can't find a Starbucks, but I have 3 of them that are fairly close by.  WHICH DEB AND CHUCK ARE SUPPOSE TO COME THE HELL DOWN HERE AND GET COFFEE WITH ME!  I am still waiting!

I just all of y'all to know that my feelings are deeply hurt by your views of southerners.  My heart is, quite frankly, broken.

Now, I got a lynching to attend, if you'll excuse me.

Not to mention HUMIDITY!  Sheesh!  I wilt when it exceeds 50% here!  And that is at 80 degrees!   :-[/quote]

Uh-oh.  Poor Slammy... does this mean you'll have to buckle and wear seersucker [smiley=huh.gif]  If you do, please, PLEASE refrain from the bowtie situation.

Unless you like that sort of thing.   ;;D

I think that might be dependent on exactly what you do with the ties......... ;;D

God forbid, that you actually wear them.

ahhh..... I should have been more specific.  I am against the  actual wearing of bowties on the neck.

Tying on the other hand, can be lots of fun.

You are correct.  It is impossible to offend me.  Membership does have its privileges, after all.

And I wear bow ties.

Frankly, I would wear (and have worn) bowties regularly; however, the pot belly kind of spoils the effect. Tie 'em myself, too. Wearing clip-on bowties is like wearing falsies; they look OK, but they ain't real.

Yep Ya'll, i love it here in the great state of North Carolina.....(Gods Country)....Beautiful Mountains to the west, and Beautiful Beaches to the east, and the best looking man in the state (me) right in the middle!! Sorry Chuck, but popular opinion states that you are wrong!!

As for Brain, yep he does wear bow ties, because when ole Chuckles laid that BIG OLE KISS on him at the S.C. gathering, that tie staightend right out, it looked like it had been ironed out or something..lmao.. [smiley=crackup.gif]...OH, and i got to mention beer, UNC State Wolfpack Football, UNC Tarheel basketball, and the Carolina Panthers!!!......GO PANTHERS!!!!

I'm trying to figure this "beer thing"  out.  I'm coming from Southern California, not Outer Mongolia!   ;;D

Is the beer different in NC?  Or is it that I have to consume more since it will sweat out of me faster than I can put it down?   :D

It seems that the best reasons to relocate out there are:  And not necessarily in this order.... ;0

1.  Deb
2.  Paige
3.  Slammy Pic not yet posted at the Post Office.
4.  Virgin  Slammy territory!   ;;D
5.  Warmer waters at the beach!   :D
6.  Beer Thrus!?
7.  Same time zone as Jonny, Elaine, Don, and a bunch   other knuckleheads clusterheads!   ;)

I think you are right to put Deb and myself at the top of the list.  

But please, please, don't eat collards.  That is the slimiest food.  I am not sure why people in the south eat weeds, but I just can't do it.

I pop open a brewskie everytime I cross from VA to NC on Battlefeild Blvd just past State Line Honda. If ya ever been to the Outer Banks, you know EXACTLY what I mean. In NC is the only place Renee will allow me to have a beer while driving...and for good reason. Everyone drives on the beach w/ beers open. Shit...my Expedition has 4 beer holders in dash board alone not to mention the giant cooler on the front bumper. It's like Ford knew how Carolinians drive....
