I cracked up yesterday.
If anybody remembers-"You Betcha" was a major thing in the movie "Fargo"-Some Minnesotans tended to be offended by the over the top accents. "We don't talk like that.
Yeterday-I was in the heart of Fargo country-south of Brainerd.
I was in one courthouse and I noticed the very attractive woman of roughly my age said the term a couple of times in conversation.
I then went to the next courthouse-this ofice has 4 attractive women in the 30-40 bracket-one of which is my favorite courthouse girl in the state.
Anyway-as they were talking-the "You Betchas" were flying around.
I just had to laugh.
Yep-You Betcha

Those Coen brothers should come to North Bay,or Whitby. (Ontarrry-arry-arrry-o). Or maybe Owen Sound. They talk like that there, if you know what that is.

Don't forget "Jah, shure."
We Wisconsoniansites said "You betcha" and "Uffdah" and "Jah, shure" a lot.
