Squeal Like a Pig I couldn't resist. If ol' Schmucklucka or whatever his name is is going to stereotype the South then, well, I guess we can have some fun with it, right? Reckon he's just got a lot of anger built up at us for some reason, maybe he got into some bad grits and collards or maybe his mama run off with a midget from that carnival out of Dothan. Could be he's just jealous cause not everybody can live like we do, what with all the good food and best music and prettiest girls and good weather and such. That's understandable. Well, I'll tell you what to do, Schmacklacka, what you wanna do is, go down to where they sell fishing poles and get you a nice long cane pole, a mess of nightcrawlers and maybe some crickets if they've got them up there, find you a nice shady spot on the creek somewhere and set down. Then you want to bait your hook and chunk it in the water. Lean back against a nice comfortable tree and jess kinda relax...I know it's gonna be hard but if you put your mind to it I don't doubt you cain't. Now then, just go to kinda thinking about what a pretty day it is and how nice it is to be able to be setting there, maybe sip on a cool co-coler and gnaw on some Vienny sausages. Listen to the creek water running and the birds a singing and the locusts a humming. Fix your straw hat down over your eyes (I know ya'll got them up there) and take it easy for a spell. After a while you might get to realizing that not everything is so bad in the world. Everbody ain't out to git you. They ain't no Deliverance hillbilly behind ever tree just a lusting after your ol' turdcutter. See, that was what they call one of them there MOVIES. It was something they made up. And we don't get up with our sisters down here and such, although I did hear of a feller's wife's cousin who married his second cousin one time, but they wound up being from up around Altoona, PA. As fer the slam on our boys in uniform, well, I jess gotta say I hope sitting there by the creek will help you realize that you can do that because somewhere there's a feller with a gun who would take a bullet fer you if it come down to it, whether you deserve it or not, because that's his job and he signed on to protect you and his country. Maybe you can cut him a little slack, but if you cain't, well then, maybe he won't hold it against you when he gets back. I kinda doubt you and your crossbow would see a Marine Scout Sniper unless he wanted you to. By the way, about that, you know who popularized the crossbow, don't you? Yeah, that's right...the French. Who else? See, back during the 1400's or so, the ol' English bowyers were giving the French hell with their longbows, shooting the poor Frogs at looong distance, one after another. So the ol' Frogs figured that they could take any ol' average soldier and teach him how to shoot a crossbow, never mind that the range was so limited, they could train a bunch of them to where they would just overwhelm the English fellers. And since the English had to train their bowmen from the time they was boys to be proficient with a longbow, well then the French figured eventually the English wouldn't be able to keep up, especially after that big bounty was put on the head of ever longbowman. Well, if you don't know how that worked out for the Frenchies then I reckon maybe even your public library might have some literature on that. Read up, a little history never hurt anybody. Jess don't put too much faith in that there crossbow contraption, especially if you've got a big ol' pissed off Green Beanie coming at you. Don't say I didn't warn ye. Views: 3449 Rating:

Using tarp for a tent while backpacking with the kids. Went backpacking with the kids at Guntersville state park. We hiked for a while and found a great spot on the water to pitch our tent which is just an old cheap blue tarp. Cooked Johnsonville brats with my alcohol stove made from a pop can. Fished with a cane pole and generally had a blast being outdoors. Views: 394 Rating:
