There are a lot of place-names in Mississippi that I love to just roll around in my mouth -- Noxapater...Splunge...Tombigbee...Itta Bena...
I guess I have no sense or moxie. ;_;

xp Itta Bena came up just the other day. Can't remember the context.
Re place names, also like Nanih Waiya. Noxapater's cross-county rival. Cool native American mound there too.

Itta Bena came up for me too. UAPB's traveling there to play against MVS this year.

Last time I attended the King Biscuit Festival in Helena AR, sometime in the 90s, my buddy got to chatting up Junior Kimbrough pretty well. He invited us to see him play at his juke joint in Chulahoma, but that would have been a far drive for two drunk northerners. Still wish we could have pulled it off.

the one time I went to Mississippi was the first time I heard some use the word "jew" as a verb and the only time that the person saying it was being serious
on the same trip, after I told this one dude how nice his house and neighborhood was and how I'd like to live someplace like that someday, he told me that that was nice but they liked to make sure only the right kind of people moved into their neighborhood, after which he stared at me and asked, "Do you understand what I am saying?"
not too many positive impressions of Tupelo, MS

(xpost) Ah, "is currently great' -- I feel like I'm doing cryptic crosswords. That's very cool.
I still look back at that Junior Kimbrough show with such amazement. It wasn't on the main stage at King Biscuit, we sat along the levee at some farm implement dealership amongst backhoes and such, whilst Kimbrough droned psychedelicly. Bizarre and awesome.

Dr. Dirt used to be the cohost of a gardening/horticulture radio show on MS Public Broadcasting. The host is a southern-horticulture expert and a real dick. (I used to work with his brother at Ole Miss; unsurprisingly, he too was a dick.)
Will otm about Tupelo. But somebody has opened a new bar there with 20 taps and 100+ bottled beers, which is real progress for that John Birch Society Southeast Regional HQ.
