    When it gets hot down here, we crack a winder.
    All sodas are a Coke. Usually served with a pack of nabs.

    ADAM FELBER: Kristin, I have a question for you because I'm married to an Oklahoma girl, and she's as relentlessly cheery as you are. And so tell me something, when you say something truly terrible about a person, do you always follow it up with the phrase bless her heart?

    CHENOWETH: Yes.

    CHENOWETH: First of all, I'd like to congratulate you for getting a girl from the best state in the union. B, we always, always, follow it with bless your heart because then it's like, void, that you said anything nasty. It's sort of like having a doughnut and a Diet Coke.

    SAGAL: Right.

    CHENOWETH: If you follow a doughnut up with a Diet Coke, it's void. It never happened.

    @cfrizz ,
    There's a you tube video of a sunfish being improperly identified as a baby whale. The person speaking had a heavy Boston accent, and it comes out as wheel. I'd post a link, but the language is for adults only.

    I've heard it, hilarious!!

    My niece spent her early childhood in South Carolina and her later childhood in New York. I almost fell out of my chair when she asked in earnest if "Ya'll want some cawfee?"

    Oh -- an ocean sunfish!
    I think they're also called mola or mola-mola. They are really weird critters.

    When I think of "sunfish", I think of the freshwater fish that (in Maryland, anyway) we call "bluegills". A rather different beastie ;)

    EDIT: Oh, and before you all get up in my case, I do realize that there are long-eared sunfish, bluegills, pumpkinseed, and other closely related but not quite identical species :)

    I'll bet on a Saturday night, after a couple of beers, any young bluegill feelin' his oats wouldn't be picky if his only option was a pumpkinseed hussy.

    It's funny....if you go to the middle if the state ie, sturbridge, fiskdale, warren, Brimfield, Brookfield area, people put "R"s where they don't belong.

    A few from my grandfather's mouth;
    Bananer,
    Soder,
    Yarcht
    Pineapper
    Virginier

    And the ever classic, which I'm told I do a lot, "Over dere".
    Where’s the KABOOM?!?! There’s supposed to be an Earth shattering KABOOM!!!

    Thought the same thing. I just Googled ocean sunfish. They're huge (550 -2200 lbs!!) Weird "whale" indeed.
