Talking There but for the mercy of God go I!

I'm a redneck.
And a hillbilly.
And far worse, a preacher's son!
All on the subatomic level!

Human by default, white by genetics, Redneck and hillbilly by
ancestry, Southern by the grace of God Almighty himself and
mortal by inheritance.

Remember- we hunt panthers with a toothpick and a BIC
lighter... here kitty kitty kitty....ffrrrrrrrppppp! whoooosh!
poink poink!

Redneck is not so much as who you are but a state of mind. I was born in South Ga. raised here and still live here. I have always been called a redneck, cause when I was younger I would get drunk and fall down, Chase the pretty girls, and fight a little too. Most of all my neck would get red during the summer from driving the tractor with the hot summer sun beating down on me.
But when I was 18 yrs old I became a wild eyed southern boy. I learned the girls liked that better. That meant I had to tone down the drinking and fighting, but the girls I still chased. I caught one so i had to stop. Also Bubba is not a word for someone in the south unless he was givin that name while he was young for the way he was. The only official way to get to be Bubba in the south is people have to start calling you that cause you are a friend to them. (OH and I love mullet but only for breakfast after its been reheated in the oven.) And cheese GRITS too. Ya'll have a good'un.

When I was young people who worked it the fields from sun up till sundown and got the backs of their necks sunburned were called "Rednecks".
They may not of had the best of cars or the biggest house in the county but what they had they worked for and they were proud to have it.
When I went in the service the other fellows laughed at the way I talked and some of the phrases I used but I laughed at them when they put sugar and milk in their Grits. I am almost 60 years old and I still aint had the nerve to mess up my Grits like that.
I been called lots of things and I do laugh at them redneck jokes, heck, some of um are funny.
I was borned into a family of Lint Heads but we lived on the outskirts of Redneckville.
I guess what Im tryin to say is I don't wear the bibed overhalls
they cost too much now but I do consider myself a Redneck.
It is just a way of life.
I got a son-in-law that is a Southern lawyer named Bubba.
Don

No shoes and a gun is a true redneck sign? I'll be. So am I to believe Bin Laden is a redneck? Polpot and 1/2 the far east are rednecks?
So are wingtips and a tie a true sign that a person is a blood sucking attorney that milks the american working man for everything he's worth? Or maybe captoes make you a politician?
I have a cowboy hat hanging from my headliner. I have a gun or several. I have been barefoot outside just today. I have a few pairs of wrangler jeans.
No wingtips.....I have a few perfectly pressed suits and several ties. I have captoe shoes. I have a london fog trench coat.
Clint Black once said.....the shoes dont make the man.

I sure would hate for anyone to be stereotyped here.
No Bin Laden wears sandals and a turbin on his head. Now if he wore a John Deere hat he would be.

I voted NO since I am in denial. Being raised on unpasteurized milk straight from the
family cow check, skinnned and gutted first animal by 8 years old check, Went to
school with mud on clothes as a style check, Wore boots exclusively check, Sleeps
on the ground without a tent check, Rather do something myself then to have a
company or government do it for me check, Believe in the constitution check,
Ohh Yeah pretty much makes me an American through and through and if you want
to say hillbilly, redneck, patriot why yes I am!! Did you know most states are posting
record lows for hunting and fishing liscensce application, For this countries sake take
your nephew and niece out fishing not just your own children. An uncle that takes a
child to do things usually has a bigger impact in a childs life then even the parents on
certain things and getting dirty, stalking prey(fish or fur) bleeding it out, and skinnning
it can bring the whole family together and lead to a more well rounded child.

Are you for real??? And like I said in the other thread...You are not helping Ford out by buying a used vehicle. If you want to help Ford and the American economy out, you need to buy a new vehicle. It's what Jesus would do...

Well, Chris. . .
Here are my 'insights' -
First, allow me to say, "Welcome to FTE! As of this post, I see that you have three posts, so, you are still fairly new here. Welcome! This site is as this little guy says . . . .


Toyota vs Ford as compared to 'non American vs. American.
Most Toyotas are made IN the USA. whereas some Fords are built in Mexico.
Now, where your Ford(s) were built, I don't even have a clue. I will yield to someone else on the forum that is more knowledgeable than me, for that one.
But, in this 'global economy', your money spent on whatever vehicle that is even just assembled in the U.S. is helping our economy.
It is helping to pay the salary/salaries of those people that are employeed by these 'historically' foreign corporations.

That's almost like saying that I'm not going to watch any more movies, unless they are produced and made by an American company.
Well. . . I guess I won't be watching many movies. I think Sony has a big hand in at least one corporation.

My last 'insight' into your post is, I will buy basically whatever I want, and spend my $$$ here, because I want MY economy to be healthy.

Back to the topic at hand. . . .

As for being a 'redneck', yes, I suppose I am.
I don't wear Wranglers, because Levi's jeans have more room, for a fat guy like me.
I'm not a 'poser' but, I'd like to stand next so some of the beautiful ladies that do 'pose' for a living.
Hmmmmmmmm. . let's see - Rachel Hunter, Elle McPherson, Stephanie Seymour. Yeah, they'll do, for a start.


I'm a lot of things, but, at least I'm not a S.M.I.B.
(Oh, that means, "Southern Maryland In-Bred".)
