I think I've heard if'n in canon and used by Mal and Jayne in particular.

Besides a man that uses t'other would so use if'n.

Yeah, you're right about that. I rescind my criticism!

And maybe your roots are showing, but in the Firefly 'verse we respect you for being a redneck 'cause it helps us with dialogue. :D

LOL

Yeah, unfortunately in reality people tend to look at me like a dumber than dirt hayseed. I have worked very hard to get rid of the accent, so much in fact that over the holidays when we were doin' the embarrass the kids thing, my mother played a video of my sister fo rmy kids and my son said...Why are we watching people we don't know! Bless his heart he didn't realize that was me and his aunt.

I have to say that I turned a friend into a Firefly fan last week...made her watch the entire series and the movie, too, well she is from LA, California and everytime they said anything in country speak she would just scrunch up her face and look at me to translate...

I tend to think she was makin' fun of me.

Having had way too much coffee and it being...dear god...it is almost 6:30a.m. and I ain't had a lick o' sleep.
So I will shut my gorram mouth and say...nighty night don't let the bed bugs bite.
