Ah, yes ... just one of many amusing idiosyncracies of the Southern dialect. That one doesn't usually cause too much trouble, but ... sometimes ... when we say "ice" and the other person ... probably a damn Yankee ... thinks they hear "ass" ... well ... it can lead to a rather interesting conversation, don'tcha know.

Re: "I'm the one who started it off by proposing you "sale" around Cape Horn."
And here I thought that "sale" was what happens when a Texan tries to say "sell." I've educated myself since then and now realize that it's how GEORGIANS say the word.
