IsoM,
Thanks for that joke! My parents are "rednecks", and I have lived in the rural South for probably half of my life. I guess that makes me 'one' too! I did get my Mom's deer rifle for Christmas last year. One of my best friends is an industrial mechanic and you never see him wearing anything but the navy blue uniforms that he wears at work (with his name patch sewn on of course). What makes this kind of stuff so funny is that it often is so true. There are a lot of Amish around where I live and it is a treat (not a laugh), to see groups of them in WalMart (especially with a cart full of wine and whisky). There was one Amish man with a big salt and pepper beard standing outside WalMart smoking a pipe the other day and the sun was just right-a perfect piece of art-no camera, RATS! I think Globalization is such a BORE. It won't be long before it will be hard to find any of these kind-hearted people that are so tuned into their environment *outside*.
