Nah, he's just been poorly influenced (oh, and watch out - the Looahvul Slugger will point out to you that in KY it's "you-all," not "y'all" )

That's true, actually, and I say you-all more typically than I say y'all. I also occasionally say "you-guys"--hey Kentucky was a border state in the war! But I figured for the sake of comedy it woul dbe better to stick to the more immediately recognizable "y'all." *sigh* you can't please everyone... ;]
