EYE WITNESS No profanity allowed against Sadam. No limits to the cruelty. FROM THE MAIL BOX With friends like the Saudis - - - LEARNED IN NORTH CAROLINA Possums sleep in the middle of the road with their feet in the air. There are 5,000 types of snakes and 4,998 live in North Carolina. There are 10,000 types of spiders. All 10,000 live in North Carolina, plus a couple no one's seen before. Squirrels will eat anything. Unknown critters love to dig holes under tomato plants. Raccoons will test your crop of melons and let you know when they are ripe. If it grows, it sticks; if it crawls; it bites. A tractor is NOT an all-terrain vehicle. They do get stuck. Onced and Twiced are words. It is not a shopping cart, it is a buggy. Fire ants consider your flesh as a picnic. People actually grow and eat okra. Fixinto is one word. There ain't no such thing as "lunch". There's only dinner and then there's supper. Tea is appropriate for all meals and you start drinking it when you're 2. Backards and forwards means I know everything about you. 'Jeet? is actually a phrase meaning "Did you eat?" You don't have to wear a watch because it doesn't matter what time it is. You work until you're done or it's too dark to see. >^..^< PUSSYFOOTIN' >^..^< Call me a profiler, a racist, or whatever floats your boat, but I am so weary of difficult-to-understand Mid-Eastern accents on TV that I've stopped watching TV news. Period. Will check back with the talking heads after my offended ears get a rest. >^..^< Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day. |
