+*+*+ Moonshiner rednecks, at Hog Yeller's Bog, with eyes buggin' out, like yellow-bellied frog. Tongues hanging down, brains full of booze, belly-scratching swamp men, hillbilly schmooze. There's belchin' and burpin', and slobberin' down shirt. Horseflies buzzin' about, As pigs roll in dirt. Can't win for losin', so they don't even try. Just knockin' back moonshine, ~ "Here's mud in yer eye!" +*+*+ [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (09-24-2003 03:49 PM).] |

I was just gonna reply..."That sounds like one of Cpat's relatives?....great write..kinda reminds me of the old days down here in Alabama.... She wasn't much to look at, Her personality was nil, She wasn't the kind of girl that would give you a thrill. Her father was a moonshiner, With his business on a hill, but none of this bothered me, For I love her STILL! |

There are still a bunch of them in the country in Florida....probably some in the city, too, if one was to look for them...or their descendants anyway!! ahahahahaha!!!  hugs, Ethel [This message has been edited by garysgirl (09-24-2003 03:52 PM).] |

hahahahahaha... this was hilarious!!! Fun reading!!!! My husband used to live in the Ozarks and said that's about the size of it. Lots of people had stills up there he said. I lived in a town that was small, here in Texas but it's a suburb of Houston. I've never had the pleasure of living in the country, but I would love to!!!!!! I could just see this. hahahaha   SharaRose @-->-- Of sound, and speech let all lift the hearer! |

Linda, You've described, exactly, a small "compound" a couple miles downstream from me. Then, there's the little "town" that exists under the highway bridge. I swear that place NEVER sees sunlight! Nice one, gal! Ed |

Dear Box of Ice ~ I can picture it now, the year is 1492--Oops!--That was when Colombus sailed the ocean blue! I meant to say 1792. I can picture it now, the year is 1792...lol Cheers! Bottoms up! Here's to passing the jar around!--Now what is it that people do in jars? I think it starts with a "p". lol Sorry for rambling on nonsensically, but I only slept for two hours last night and I'm feeling silly and giddy! Loves 'n hugs a jars of amber liquid! lol--oh, oh! There I go again! Unsigned |
