All a y'all is the proper term for those of us south of the Mason Dixon.


The Mason Dixon is a region, not a line. I'm in S. FL and there are no
hillbillies here. We have just about everyone else, however. I heard a
guy a few weeks ago say he was "fixin" to do something. It turned out
that he was planning to go home up north.

According to these guys, it's a line.

"Fixin" is proper usage for "I'm about to get ready to start thinking about
doing something". Planning comes *way* after 'fixin'.
