TE> Well Janada, Randy's still at it.  He posted this e-mail the
TE> other day.  He's even talking about the business he's going to
TE> open up when he retires.  "Randy's Mortuary and Bait Shop", the
TE> movie rentals will be in the shed out back.
Hee hee! I can't wait for that! Well, maybe the mortuary part...
You are both "baaaad" boys, aren't you?
TE> RULES IN THE SOUTH
This was very funny, BTW.
TE> 1. Save all manner of bacon grease. You will be instructed
TE> later how to use it.
My grandmother saved it. My mother saved it. I *used* to save it, but
since neither one of them ever really explained just why I was saving
it, I gave it up. Yikes! I hope that doesn't come back to haunt me!
TE> 4. If you do run your car into a ditch, don't panic. Four men
TE> in the cab of a four wheel drive with a 12-pack of beer and a
TE> tow chain will be along shortly. Don't try to help them. Just
TE> stay out of their way. This is what they live for.
Hey, I know these guys! Some of them even do it for a living, but
there are not nearly as many of them as amateurs.
TE> 5. Don't be surprised to find movie rentals and bait in the
TE> same store.
As long as they sell beer, I'd say they'd do a booming business.
I never thought fishing was that far from television anyway...just
not quite as stinky. ;)
TE> 6. Do not buy food at the movie store.
Yikes! You mean that cotton candy--...oh yeah, I see what you mean.
TE> 7. If it can't be fried in bacon grease, it ain't worth
TE> cooking, let alone eating.
It do do wonders for spinach and green beans. I almost gave up eating
them when I quit eating bacon...but then it hit me...Bacon Bits!!!
TE> 10. Get used to hearing, "You ain't from around here, are you?"
And the really great thing is that people will actually *help* you in
the South if you're lost...sometimes more than you ever dreamed. 
TE> 11. People walk slower here.
We just have more distance to cover. We're actually pacing ourselves.
TE> 15. Be advised: The "He needed killin'" defense is valid here.
I *love* the South!
TE> 17. If you hear a Southerner exclaim, "Hey, y'all, watch this!"
TE> stay out of his way. These are likely the last words he will
TE> ever say.
I grew up with a lot of guys like that. Come to think of it, most did
have shorter life spans.
