My daddy always called it a settee too. Very deep southern roots here. Coke=pop, soda,etc, didn't matter what it was/is, it's a coke. Raining cats and dogs, raining like the dickens and cow pissing on a flat rock, All depending on the severity. Dinner was at noon, supper was in the evening. We went up town or down town, depending on whether we were north or south of town. Also the refrigerator was the ice box. I grew up on a dirt road verses a paved road or brick road. Mamma always said *I swanee*. We called Aunts, Aint. Over yonder, it's a fer piece, a ways down the road.....So many I can't remember off the top of my head.
