I don't know if this is Texan or Southern, I did mention I'm from Texas didn't 
I?  Anyway, I often heard "sodas" referred to as "cold drinks" (but kinda run 
together like: coledrink) as well as calling every kind of cold drink "coke".  
   
  I noticed some people in Mayberry (for example Asa) who have a distinctly 
Northern accent.  Perhaps others heard him speak of having a bottle of pop and 
also began referring to it as such.  Being a small town, maybe the term spread. 
 That's my theory.
   
  Next time you pass through Wylie, drop in for a coledrink or some sweet tea 
and spicy talk.
