"South Carolina is too small be a republic, and too
large to remain an insane asylum."
                 ~ James L. Petigru, Charleston lawyer, 1861
A common, yet 'mannerly' salute
from many SOBs toward tourists
and tour guides.

There are two neighborhoods in Charleston, divided by Broad
Street. If you live slightly north of Broad Street you are
referred to as a SNOB - Slightly North of Broad.

If you live south of Broad Street, you are called an SOB.
Charleston is the only place where a SNOB would rather  be an
SOB . Charleston is also the only city where being called an SOB
is a compliment.
