Richmond is technically a “Mid-Atlantic” state; that is, Va., Del., Md. Pa., and sometimes W. Va. The discussion of 1861-1865 really jacked our stuff up. Then there’s August, and humiture, and well, all bets are off, then.

They’re probably talking about the white haired/rosy faced bum that panhandles the corner of Cary and Nasemond and buys malt liquor at the 7-11 on Cary and Auburn/Beaumont.

If Richmond was never “deep south” then where did all these crackers come from?

“Cars occasionally slow to a stop if they even suspect a pedestrian might be getting ready to cross the street”

Mr. Toronto does have some valid points but is way off base on the “Deep South” comment…hoser

What would Mr. Toronto know for “Deep South” anyway, aye?

(I am so sorry, I could not resist, for all my Canadian friends, I owe you a tasty beverage in apology!)

…”Deep South City”…We’ve been through a lot of changes, mostly for the better, but I don’t know if I would ever have characterized Richmond as that. No offense to the “deep south” or anything…
