You might say us hillfolks have a different way of talking. Dad always said, in talking about fence wire "that's tight as Dick's hatband". And speaking of fence, it's "bob-war" here, not barbed wire. The old timers always "plowed" their corn and cotton, instead of saying they cultivated it. Most folks around here call their vehicle a "rig", as in "come on we'll take my rig to town".
