We went to Walmart to stock up on folders, notebooks, binders, etc. We got in line behind an older mustached, full-bellied man. He turned around and drawled out slowly, "Would you like ta git ahead a' me? Ya only got a few things and I ain't in a hurry."
"Uh, wow -- really? Um, actually, that would be really nice!" (Only because we were running late.)
Then the tiny white-haired lady next in line asked us if we wanted to go ahead of her too.
I couldn't help asking, "Is everybody in Oklahoma this nice?"
The mustached man chuckled. "Waaaay-ll, most of us are. We gen'rilly try to treat uh-thur people th' way we like to be treated."
