i guess that song was originally a strange antebellum composition sung by black minstrels about how great plantation life was. then it became a nostalgic civil war anthem for the anemic southern loosing streak. so to whistle dixie is synonymous with some sort of quixotic misremembering of the glorious good old days. more commonly phrased as you ain't just whistling dixie, as far as i can make out, in modern richmond speak this just means "for real".
in case you wanted to know. and admit it, you did.
today i am just posting some pictures of the things i own. i never owned much before.
