Yankee or Dixie
(snagged from <a href="http://www.ailurophile.com/mainiac/index.php?p=251">Christine</a> who snagged it from <a href="http://www.ailurophile.com/catmom/archives/004852.php#004852">Marsha</a> who snagged it from <a href="http://www.redgrandam.com/archives/000676.php">Susan</a>... and so on and so on..)
<a href="http://www.chuckchamblee.com/dom/fun/yankee_dixie_quiz.htm">Are you a Yankee or Dixie?</a>
I scored 49% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category.
Heh!

Ok, so I got the same thing... but I think it is because a lot of what we chose was common.
Don't worry... we are yankees. Quiz must just suck! :)

I'm 61% Dixie. I didn't see that coming.

This quiz is clearly wrong about a lot of things. No one I know in NJ/NY pronounces "cot" and "caught" the same way, and they think it's a Pennsylvania thing. And how about addressing a group of people using proper English: you (without the "you all," "youse," "you'uns," and "y'all")? There wasn't even a choice for that.
Okay, gotta hop in the shower and take my entourage to AC.

I'm 75% Dixie ("That's a pretty strong southern score"). I thought I would be somewhere closer to the middle...

I'm 74% (Dixie). That is a pretty strong Southern score!....that makes sense since I'm from Oklahoma.
