Redneck ROFL
by Steve West on June 7, 2008

I've been to this site a few dozen times without considering linking to it. But a picture they posted really cracked me up because it, once again, reminded me of my Carolina cousins, rednecks all. Anyway the picture I'm referring to is called redneck Barbies and they remind me of a favorite pair of cousins of mine, Rodney and Looler. They also remind me of Britney Spears and Kevin Federline.

Yep, my cousins again. Kidding but I could see them doing that. The family reunion/inevitable fish fry was a highlight of many Carolina trips. Hushpuppies & catfish. Drool, drool.

My Favorite Memory
Yesterday, we held the memorial service for my father-in-law. There were approximately 100 people attending and afterward about 1/3 gathered at his home for a small meal and sharing remembrances. I chose to share my memory of the time, twenty years ago, when I asked him for his blessing for my planned proposal to Brenda, his eldest daughter. Go »
Halloween Post #8: Geek-O'Lanterns
Happy Halloween! Celebrate this absurdly lovable holiday with a time-consuming habit of making a jack-o-lantern. Despite the inherent silliness of carving a gourd as an act of celebration, these pumpkins are very impressive. Go »

Holy catfish, Batman! I love catfish (had it for dinner tonight, in fact!), and I like to fish, too... but you can *for-get* *that* -- I'll stick to bait on a hook and line, thanks...
