RitaB Posted February 3, 2016 Report Posted February 3, 2016 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. 11 Quote

Terry D EA Posted February 4, 2016 Report Posted February 4, 2016 Hey is that tar hill or tar heel???? People are different here in the "tar heel" State of NC but not all are totally crazy. But then again..... 3 Quote
easytax Posted February 4, 2016 Report Posted February 4, 2016 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)! 2 Quote
JohnH Posted February 4, 2016 Report Posted February 4, 2016 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. 5 Quote

JohnH Posted February 4, 2016 Report Posted February 4, 2016 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". 2 Quote
