NT / My client. You can't make this stuff up.

Lady dropped off Monday.  She had no health insurance 2015. 

She calls today:  Hold off on doing my return.  I've been checking around and I'm getting health insurance so I won't have to pay that penalty.

I had no idea she had a DeLorean Time Machine.  Her Flux Capacitor is really going to pay off this time.

See, get me anywhere there is sweet tea, bbq pork and some grits and I loose all sense of nick names (or where they belong).

Although as good as NC and TN pork goes, you can NOT beat good Amish barbeque anything (including sweet slaw)!

It's "Tar Heel".  But when you hear us say it, sometimes it's hard to tell the difference between "Heel" and "Hill".

Just remember that "Hill" and "Heel" and "Heal" all have two syllables.

 With some North Carolinians, it's also hard to tell the difference between "Tar" and "Tire", but that's another lesson.

In TN, Firetower Road is Far Tire Road.  True story.

My original hometown was Forest City, NC. But if you "ain't from around here" and you ask a local the name of their hometown, you'll think everybody came from somewhere else. That's because you'll swear they said "I'm from Far City".
