Hitler, meet Hitler. Nice to meet you, Hitler. You too, Hitler.

Chas, I thought you were in the south somewhere, aren't you? You know I grew up in Mt. Orab, Ohio located where S.R. 68 crosses S.R 32 (from wikipedia) "also known as the James A. Rhodes Appalachian Highway." Now if you're a hillbilly, what does that make me?

A somewhat Northeastern hillbilly, I reckon.

I'm from Missouri, on the top edge of the Ozarks. While I may have killed my 1st squirrel over 45 yrs ago by knocking it out of a tree with a walnut, after which I chased it down and "squooze" it to death, I'm pretty much a citified hillbilly.

Now don't get me wrong, I've lived in shacks so far out in the woods that the chickens fornicated with the hoot owls, had an outhouse, killed what I ate and ate what I killed, etc, etc.

But I'm also currently conversing with you via the WWW and listening to Concord Jazz on Hornshoppes w valve amplification.

I may be from Bugtussell, but I'm not from Brumley. They do grow 'em ignert down there.

Chas

Well, shoot. No idea where I got that idea. Hell, we're both mid-west rednecks.

It's funny, when I was a kid, all us country folks were Democrats. I used to go to the "Brown County (Ohio) Democrats Club" meetings with my dad and Uncle. Everybody who was anybody, at least in our little world, was there.

Oh well, times change.

Well Ed, I'm proud of you for leaving Nowheres USA and becoming what Elvin Bishop puts as "Home town boy does good."

The local banker would be proud of ya!!!

Myself, I'm a version of "Home town boy don't owe us nuttin." Besides, I have a reputation of being half drunk, half nuts, and heavily armed.

I'm the turtle in the small pond.

I grew up in a backwoods "Jerkwater" town called Newton Falls, Ohio. But, never took to the country life. Actually, I hate it. Most of you already know my sentiments on that, so I'll leave sleepin' dogs lie.

Now, I'm just a "Fool for the City"...............

Funny, I grew up in a village in Quebec that my uncle and a partner started. maybe two thousand people in the summer, less in winter when all the city folk went back to Montreal and closed their houses. Only 21 homesites here on the Court and that is just fine.
