Southern Commandments

Jennifer, my old middle and high school acquaintance over at Four Weddings and a Funeral, is having a little fun over on her blog, asking her readers to come up with "Southern Commandments":

Being from South Carolina, and growing up hearing all kinds of little "rules," I thought it might be fun to come up with a list of Southern Commandments that pertain to life in the South. To that end, I'm inviting anyone who grew up in and/or currently resides in the Southeastern US, specifically the Carolinas southward and no further west than Louisiana, to leave a comment with a "Southern Commandment."

Monday being a slow newsday here in the Blogland, I thought I'd throw this out for y'all to check out and share your thoughts.

    Thou shalt not use "yall" in the singular.

    When concentrating, thou shalt hold thy mouth right.
