- - Things Every True Southerner Should Know (http://www.ironworksforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=68114)

Fixin' to: About to carry out some probable future action.

Conjugation of the verb: "fixin' to:"

I'm fixin' to
You're fixin' to
He/She/It's fixin' to

We're fixin' to
Y'all'r fixin' to
They're fixin' to

Examples:

Miss Suzy's fixin' to see her beau this evenin'.
It's been fixin' to rain for a week.
Are y'all fixin' to go to the barbecue?

And remember: True southerners never conjugate, they decline

Your friend,

It's like seeing his grandpa's ghost.... kinda creepy sometimes...

There were old-timers in the audience crying...

I saw a video, Hank III sure does look and sound like his grandpa.
