Did you hear me? I'm going to button it up. There, it's buttoned. (husband ignores her)

50-something suit at brunch: The South was a backwards place until air conditioning. That's what allowed them to advance as a people. Now, these hurricanes come and knock out their power. That's why they have so many problems during these storms.
