Is it really possible to not be sure if someone is from Louisiana or North Dakota? I think that if the accent didn't give it away, then surely one question could ascertain their state of origin.
Some possibilities:
- So, I've always wondered what is the Atchafalaya?
- What exactly is in jumbalaya?
- How do you pronounce b-e-i-g-n-e-t?
- What is that green vegetable in gumbo?
- Marie Laveau did my hair, do you like it?
- So, what direction does the Red River run?

Hi, Beth,
I tried to comment, but I'm not smart enough. That must be another sign of being from Louisiana.
If they are real stump jumping crayfish (that's pronounced 'CRAW FISH') eaters, they can cross a swamp cypress knee to cypress knee without ever getting their feet wet.
But the real test of a true Louisiana gentleman is if he opens doors for you, helps you with your coat and treats you like a lady.
Love you,
Dad
