Howie, Good luck with your "potential" move and hope it works out You are right Southerners are known for being friendly and none more so than Louisiana so if you really want to go South come on down here. Plus we talk a lot faster than those in South Carolina so you should fit right in. When I used to travel a bit up North people would always ask if I was from Louisiana. Something about saying ma'am, opening doors for the ladies and talking to stangers that seemed out of the norm for most, I guess. Not to mention the accent of course. Oh and in addition to all of the chitlins and collard greens that you want you also get to suck the heads in Louisiana. (crawfish that is)
