Actually, I used to visit rural Mississippi regularly. My niece taught at the veterinary school at Mississippi State and my mother lived in Starkville. It was kind of a fun place to visit. I always stayed in this ancient hotel. I would get their best room, which cost next to nothing. They had a very good men's clothing store there. So I always went shopping there when I visited. The guy who took care of me was this studly, good-looking young blond. He would pull stuff off the racks that he thought I would like, I would try it on, and he would say, "I LIKE that on you," and he had made another sale. My mother didn't understand that the interaction was mostly a flirtation and thought I bought clothes like that all the time. I enjoyed the strangeness of it - heavy flirting with a studly blond southern boy.
