At a southern university, students in the psychology program were discussing  emotional extremes. 
"Just to establish some parameters," said the professor to the student 

from Arkansas, "what is the opposite of joy?" 
"Sadness," said the student. 
"And the opposite of depression?" he asked of the young lady from 
Oklahoma. 
"Elation," she said.
"And you sir," he said to the young man from Texas, 
"what about the opposite of woe?" 
The Texan replied, "Sir, I believe that would be 'giddy up' ".
