I live up here in Anchorage Alaska, and yes only in Idaho would you here that statement. Here in Anchorage we carry concealed weapons for "the bears and drunks".
(there is a joke going around my group of friends where anyone saying they are from or visited "I-da-hoe" they say "You sure are." Does that go on down there?)
When I get sad, I stop being sad and I am awesome instead. True story.
My name is Maryn Smith (Muh-rin
Sm-ih-th). However, Maryn is not one of those names that can be shortened easily. Unless you take out all the vowels, which sounds a lot like 'Mern'. So my friends always called me Mern. Much later, I was talking to someone who was trying to find me on what was probably a very important list and she asked me what my name was and I said Maryn. And she looked at her list of highly influential and attractive people and eventually asked, "Smith?" I said yes and carried on to my very important business. As we walked off, my friend Caitlan said, "You totally should have said, 'No actually it's pronounced Smeet-er... the 'h' is silent.'"
True story.....
