Accident when changing oil..

[Idaho Red Rocket 3]

Hey Frodo.
Although I now live in Idaho, I'm from Maryland and have spent alot of time working in New Jersey, New York, and Massachusetts. While working in those states I learned how to roll with the sarcastic banter. Play along. To the point, over time, of getting "Jersey Attitude" myself. That kind of talk is fun to them. I think it is how they cope with living in those high density environments. Most folks seam to know about the rough talk reputation of Easteners. Folks here in Idaho are gentle and polite in comparison. I often tell the local Idaho folks who are taking a trip back east to keep in mind. "If they are not cussing you...they don't love you". Telling them that before they go seams to help reduce some of their anxiety about dealing with the Easterners.

You be preachin' to the choir...born and raised in south Jersey myself. Grew up with Springsteen in my ears and fresh tomatoes, corn and asparagus on my plate!
