This discussion on Appalachian vocabulary is hilarious. I am proud to have known many of these words because I got to spend time with my grandmother as a young boy.

You really want to mess them up, go to McDonald's and order a coke float. Sorry sir we don't have that.
Do you have coke.
Yes sir.
Do you have ice cream
Yes sir.
Put some ice cream in a cup and pour coke over it.
Sorry sir we can't do that.

My late grandfather used dowsing rods to great effect for finding drainage pipes in his fields, before ploughing. No idea how it works, but work it did.

I laughed because I assume you were referring to the photo of the contractor on a Friday afternoon? If so, don’t forget the natural gas pipes too. LOL
