It may not be Northern, but it sure as heck isn't Southern. Nothing wrong with that, and it acts Southern, but it isn't. Kentucky has their own problems, don't throw them on the South, lol.

I am in California now, tell me about it. I catch hell all the time from people who are idiots, asking me questions about whether my outhouse was wooden or brick, and which roadkill tastes the best.

To me, the Mason Dixon line is a very good reference.

Come 0n PUM, tell 'em it didn't have walls, it was a tree that you went behind and all road kill tastes the same, kinda like rubber!, and they'll leave you alone. As long as they can get your goat, they've acomplished their goal. Keep your goat locked up and they can't get it! Don't you remember when you were in school (you're not still there are you?). If they harassed or teased you and got your goat, they loved it and you had a big target painted on you, if you went along with the fun it wasn't fun for 'em any more.
By the way, what does road kill taste like?

(above) The biggest problem is the shoe salesman all going broke in Kentucky. Can't even give the darn things away!

Ever have store bought beef or turkey jerkey? You know those black hard bits that looks like coarse ground pepper? It isn't pepper. Next time you have some, chew slowly and think about how they could go about lowering their cost to boost profits.

I'm not sayin' it is but I ain't sayin' it ain't, just sayin'.

The toothbrush was invented in Kentucky - if it had been invented anywhere else it would have been called a teethbrush.
