    That’s not just in the South. And it also applies to teen-aged girls.

    It never fails: When I ask directions around here, it’s always near where something used to be!

    Excellent comment. I shall use that phrase if you don’t mind.

    I once asked a young lady at a convenience store, in Iowa, where a motel was. She told me to go down to the Stop n Go, turn right, go one mile and turn left at the next Stop n Go. I drove around looking for convenience stores called Stop n Go. They are traffic lights. Not stores!

    That used to happen more before GPS devices when I asked for directions, but due to circumstances it still happens. While in NJ I asked and was told to pass the large oak before turning, but the resident did not know the tree was gone in the super storm.
