What I can't stand is when people use the word "and" when it should be "to." For example, "I'll try and come see you."Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03568233178287077450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13033611.post-34786489789949447152007-03-20T13:46:00.000-07:002007-03-20T13:46:00.000-07:00Even though I am not "from" the South, I must admi...Even though I am not "from" the South, I must admit that I have picked up this particular terminology.
