me neither, y'all is plural. Speaking of walmart, man I am seeing some unreal horse stuff going in there. Salt and mineral blocks, twitches, halters, unbelievable. as for dialects-- its interesting to me how things are pronounced differently east and west of the mississippi. Like bayou, here we say Bye-Oh. West of the miss they say Bay-you. or Bye -you. Here we say rodeo - road-ee-oh. West of the miss they say ro-DAY-oh.-- yipie tie yie yo
