Degas,

Very funny but I too live in the South and I have seen large men in their golf shorts enter the pool to cool off (and clean off). Your stories are very colorful but unfortunately there is a little bit of truth in them! You can take the "Red Neck" out of the country but you can't keep them out of Europe. I will laugh at your story the rest of the day.

RE: aj

Sir, You labor under a misperception that my stories are "tall tales" or even, god forbid, fake. Papa would turn over in his cold grave if that were true. I can assure you that all of them are based on actual bizare experiences that me and the wife or our crazy cousins from Sweetwater Springs have had across the pond.

Degas, Degas, Degas - what a name for such a boor! Your little bit of humor for us? BTW, they miss you on Rural USA. I'd tack on one of those blinky little faces, but I couldn't locate one with a red neck.

RE: Sufer Dud

I read your many posts (2) and was quite impressed by your firm grasp of the obvious.

Those "english for dummies" lessons at the salvation army mission are really paying off. Does your mom know you are fooling around with the computer when her back is turned?

Degas, Degas, why oh why are you resurrecting that "I'm a good ole rural boy married to my fat sister" style of posting tried by many, without success. Must be you posted here under another name and for some misguided reason yearned to return as plow boy. I'm still looking for that red neck blinkey face, but so far I've found only the dumb facades, lowbrowed, and no red.

RE: Sufer dud

And leave dearest Scarlett alone - any woman with that fair name must be a perfectly grand vision of beauty, charm and grace.

This whole discussion is an endorsement for why people go to nude beaches.

RE: Cigalechanta (reminds me of a high stepping dancer I dated when I was in the army stationed in the Panama Canel Zone)

You thought that 'flabby" little remark would fly right over my greased back hair, didn't you?

Well, me and the wife were watching our usual six hour segment of the Home Shopping Network after we got home from bingo at the American Legion and we broke down and ordered one of those stomachizer, roll up, cruch up gizmo's for an amazingly low five easy payments of $49.50, $60 shipping and $40 handling charge.

I swept out a few dozen beer cans and five or six Cheeze Whiz cans and got a nice spot all reserved for it by my vibrating easy chair with the built-in ice box and microwave!

Killer ABS before harvest time or my name isn't Leroy Degas!

Can we get back to the subject of my husband having to wear tight trunks on holiday please?

How am I suposed to keep my mind on my holiday read when he is lying there stretched out and oiled up? No wonder the French have such a reputation as lovers.

I am convinced that if we ask the DOD to send Degas over to Iraq the "war" will be over in five minutes flat. If his wife goes with him it'll only take two minutes!

Swim shorts are only banned in France if they say 'E-MALE' on them.

Which is it Buzzy? Are you concerned about protecting your children's delicate sensibilities or are you worried about being too distracted to read? Are you a prude or a voyeur? Personally, I say, show us the packages! Then we can decide whether we want to open them or not!
