Overheard in IFR Magazine's "On the Air"

I'm a controller at Terre Haute, Indiana, and I was working data while my female supervisor got her currency on arrival radar. She was wondering about the on-course heading of an overflight. The conversation went something like this:

Approach:
"Seven Six One Zulu Bravo, say your heading to 22G."

N761ZB (heavy southern drawl):
"Ahhhh, yes, ma'am, we're a-headin' to 22G!"
