Southern vernacular is sometimes hard to "get" by someone that doesn't live here. while i don't agree that anyone here was being annoying, except maybe the thread originator, i feel sure that there wasn't any racial connotation in his use of the word.
that's all...just felt i needed to defend my love for the South and try to fight the prevailing stereotype that we're all racists and bigots.
back to your regularly scheduled program. :) |

To answer your question, I'm a retired architectural photographer, and used to teach photography at UCSD and at Zone System workshops. I currently do photography for fun and "art" and sell out of a gallery in my home on Cape Cod.
