My Roots

Due to the climate of political correctness now pervading America, those of us in Arkansas and Missouri will no longer be referred to as "HILLBILLIES."

You must now refer to us as: OZARK-AMERICANS.

Thank you!

Now if you'll excuse me, I got opossums to fry.

An Evening With Family!

This evening my family decided to met up at a local mall for dinner and to try to start shopping around for Christmas gift ideas. After dinner and several clothing stores, we ended up at a book store. I started by looking at the CD section. Nothing sparked my interest. Then I went to various topic sections of books. As I was perusing the section on apologetics, I heard a faint but familiar sound coming from the children’s section. In no time I recognized the sound. It was the intro to a VeggieTales video.

I tried to ignore it because I was with a group of adults and I wasn’t sure if it was ok for me to go over to the children’s section and watch the currently playing video. Then I ran in to my any on the next isle over and we both commented on how we wanted to go watch the video.

We went over there and looked through all the Veggie Tales paraphernalia, all the while keeping the TV monitor in our peripheral vision. I found a VeggieTales nativity. This is by far the coolest, albeit least realistic, nativity scene I have ever seen!

A long story short…I walked out of the store having purchased “Bob & Larry Sing The 70s”. I highly recommend this CD. You too can be a normal, average this evening, various people in my family met up for dinner and hanging out at a mall to catch up.
