I scored over 90% Dixie! Now I just need me a mess of greens, some fatback, and some black-eyed peas, Beale.

New kinda joke......



It was a cold winter day when an old man walked out onto a frozen lake, cut a hole in the ice, dropped in his fishing line and began waiting for a fish to bite.

He was there for almost an hour without even a nibble when a young boy walked out onto the ice, cut a hole in the ice not to far from the old man and dropped in his fishing line.

It only took about a minute and WHAM!, a Largemouth Bass hit his hook and the boy pulled in the fish.

The old man couldn't believe it but figured it was just luck. But the boy dropped in his line and again within just a few minutes pulled in another one.

This went on and on until finally the old man couldn't take it any more since he hadn't caught a thing all this time. He went to the boy and said, "Son, I've been here for over an hour without even a nibble. You have been here only a few minutes and have caught about half a dozen fish! How do you do it?" To which the boy responded, "roo raf roo reep ra rums rrarm."

"What was that?" The old man asked.

Again the boy responded, "roo raf roo reep ra rums rarrm."

"Look" said the old man, "I can't understand a word you are saying."

So the boy spit into his hand and said, "You have to keep the worms warm!"

THE RULES OF WEST VIRGINIA
1. Pull your droopy pants up. You look like an idiot.

2. Turn your cap right, your head isn't crooked.

3. Let's get this straight; it's called a "dirt road." I drive a truck because I want to. No matter how slow you drive, you're going to get dust on your Lexus. Drive it or get out of the way.

4. They are cattle. They're live steaks. That's why they smell funny to you. They smell like money to us. Get over it. Don't like it? I-64 goes east and west, I-77 and I-79 go north and south. Pick one.

5. So you have a $60,000 car. We're impressed. We have $150,000 corn pickers and hay balers that are driven only 3 weeks a year.

6. So every person in West Virginia waves. It's called being friendly. Try to understand the concept.

7. If that cell phone rings while an 8-point buck is coming in, we WILL shoot it out of your hand. You better hope you don't have it up to your ear at the time.

8. Yeah, we eat catfish & craw fish. You really want sushi & caviar? It's available at the corner bait shop.

9. The "Opener" refers to the first day of deer season. It's a religious holiday held the closest Saturday to the first of November.

10. We open doors for women. That is applied to all women, regardless of age. We hold doors for anyone following us in or out. Its called consideration for others, another concept you might want to get used to.

11. No, there's no "vegetarian special" on the menu. Order steak. Or you can order the Chef's Salad and pick off the 2 pounds of ham, cheese, & turkey.

12. When we fill out a table, there are three main dishes: meats, vegetables, and breads. We use four spices: salt, pepper, hot sauce, and ketchup. Oh, yeah....we don't care what you folks in Cincinnati call that stuff you eat... IT AIN'T REAL CHILI!!

13. You bring "coke" into our house, it better be brown, wet and served over ice.

14. You bring "Mary Jane" into our house, she better be cute, know how to shoot, drive a truck, and have long hair.

15. College and High School Football are as important here as the Lakers and the Knicks, and a dang site more fun to watch than a bunch o' over-paid prima donnas.

16. Yeah, we have golf courses. But don't hit the water hazards -- it spooks the fish.

17. Colleges? We have them all over. We have State Universities, Community Colleges, and Vo-techs They come outta there with an education plus a love for God and country, and they still wave at everybody when they come for the holidays.

18. We have a higher percentage of our total population in the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines than anyone. Don't mess with us. If you do, you WILL get whipped by the best.

19. Turn down that blasted car stereo! That thumpity-thump crap ain't music, anyway. We don't want to hear it anymore than we want to see your boxers. Refer back to #1.

20. Four inches isn't a blizzard - it's a flurry. Drive like you got some sense in it, and DON'T take all our bread, milk, and bleach from the grocery stores. This ain't Alaska , worst case you may have to live a whole day without croissants The pickups with snow blades will have you out the next day.

!00 % YANKEE here, but we can still be friends.Where we are born is not our choice, nor is the color of our skin. I'm proud to call everyone i meet my brother or sister...doesn't matter who they are, where they come from, or what they did.
