Try comprehending that when you're a 4th grade kid born in Cleveland.<BR/><BR/>Living and teaching in camo-country, sometimes I just crack myself up when all the kids come into school in their camo flak jackets and I say, "Brandon, how'd you do that- you look like a floating head?

You can’t get your food, gas, beer and ammo and forget the live bait.<BR/><BR/>Second, inform your brother that chitlins are pig intestines, perhaps he will think again.<BR/><BR/>Third, if he’s thinking that someone put possum in the burgoo, that’s just dead wrong. All Kentuckians know that you put squirrel in the burgoo.<BR/><BR/>In addition, the 20 pound rat is probably a possum that he’s mistaking for a rat. And everyone knows a stuffed animal of that size will not stay on the mantel.<BR/><BR/>Ask your brother if he’s ever eaten the following: beer cheese (river rat or Hall’s?), Benedictine, burgoo.<BR/><BR/>Finally, he’ll never pass for a native unless he learns how to say the following Louisville (Lou-uh-vull), Versailles (Ver-sayles), Athens (Ay-thens).<BR/><BR/>Ellen<BR/>(Who moved away for 20 years and is still a little freaked out that she moved back.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2443300355315157565.post-80153174695531211102007-05-14T16:27:00.000-07:002007-05-14T16:27:00.000-07:00It is really funny!
