Hi Laris(s)a,
Yes, yep means yes. I have heard both "go get" and "go and get." I think "go get" is a little less formal: I'm reminded of hearing a man yell, "Go get 'em, boy!" to his dog as it chased a squirrel through a park. On the other hand, every morning my research advisor asks me to "go and get me some coffee, will ya?" That's black coffee, no cream or sugar, by the way.

In response to Brennus's comment:
"With so many people from the northern states moving to the Sun Belt (which includes the southern states) in the past 25 years, one can't help but think that the days of "fetch" in the South are numbered."
I don't think Mississippi has this problem, for reasons I won't enumerate. Not to hate on your state, JW, but it's no Florida.
