Common growing up in Alabama and still commonly heard here in Appalachia. I reckon it will still be commonly heard tomorrow, the Good Lord willing and the crick don't rise... “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

Isn't "fair to middlin" a grade of cotton that farmers were given when selling their cotton to the local buyer? | |||

Fair to Midland is pretty common in Michigan. We have a city named Midland. There are various contractions that you'll hear as well Pronoun: His Royal Highness and benevolent Majesty of all he surveys 343 - Never Forget Its better to be Pavlov's dog than Schrodinger's cat There are three types of mistakes; Those you learn from, those you suffer from, and those you don't survive. | |||
