Hello Ron,
while i was living in NY i overheard a couple of locals
relating the following story...
one had just been to louisanna, he went into a deli and asked
for coffee.. the man behind the counter said, coffee, just a
regular coffee.. the NY guy says yeah a regular coffee.. and he
got it BLACK! .. complaining that the idiot down south didn't
even know what a regular coffee was!!!!.. the poor NYer was too
myopic to know that EVERYWHERE but NY, .. regular means COFFEE
ONLY, .. BLACK...... not .. well you know!
