When I was in college in the 70's there was a guy that lived on floor below us in the dorm. He only stayed a semester and I didn't know him very well, but he was from out east somewhere. He sounded a bit like he was from New Jersey, but not quite compared the the 2 others I knew from there. More than his accent, it was the way he put his sentences together was interesting. The one I remember most was. "I went to the closet, and there they were. My boots. Both of them. Gone!"
I've always wondered where he was from that folks spoke like that.
Here in northern Ohio the grass area between the street and the public sidewalk is called the "devil strip".
In California it's called the parking strip. In North Dakota it's called the boulevard.
In NY it's Weed overgrowth :drive:

Well...growing up in Texas we always said....soda pop.... it brought about visions of an ice-cold Coca Cola, Dr. Pepper, Pepsi, RC Cola, Grapette, Orange Crush.....
I think now-days they just say “drink”....no imagination whatsoever...
