Welcome to Mississippi y'all

Dan Piraro's Bizarro making fun of that most useful of contracted pronouns: y'all. I use it all the time and have less than no connection to regions of the country that use it.  It's a perfectly reasonable word to use.  It's been part of Spanish and other romantic languages for centuries.  I wholeheartedly support it's comprehensive adoption into standard English and common use.

And hey, there's Mississippi featured right there on the cover.  That brings the total number of state featured in this blog to 19 (although the Mississippi River has already shown up).
