Heading north
Where coke becomes pop. And the weather sucks.
For the NRA Annual Meeting. Light blogging while I do last minute things.
And, remember, if you’re coming, there will be a little meetup tonight. Details here.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.

The weather down south has been kind of brutal.

Yeah, it just missed us. By literally about three miles.

I’m pretty sure Pittsburgh is in the “soda” region of the US.

Have a good time! See you in Knoxville in a month!

Uncle is right.
Pittsburgh is far enough west to be in the “pop” dominant portion of PA.

Wish i could make it up. Its closer to me than Charlotte was, but it looks like my wife’s car troubles (which mean’s my lack of a car while her’s is in the shop) and my son’s birthday party on Saturday will stand in the way.

Don’t forget “Yins.” As in “Where yins goin’?” Or, “What are yins doing?”
In PA, anything west of State College has some pretty funky dialect.

Unfortunately, Pittsburgh is definitely in the “pop” belt. Oh well, they can’t be expected to do EVERYTHING right.

Coke or pop…are y’all referring to a “cole
drank”?

If you hear someone order a “tonic” something has gone horribly wrong. Point yourself West and run like hell, and may G-d have mercy on your soul.

I sit corrected. I had thought the soda belt extended west into parts of Ohio. Guess it’s my insular SE PA upbringing.

Cheer up, Unc. At least everyone will be wearing shoes, breathing through the nose, not the mouth, and have clear shirts with collars instead of gravy-stained t-shirts with NASCAR numbers on them.
