A thought.
We have enjoyed the redneck jokes for years. It’s time to take a reflective look at the core beliefs of a culture that values home, family, country and God. If I had to stand before a dozen terrorists who threaten my life, I’d choose a half dozen or so rednecks to back me up. Tire irons, squirrel guns and grit — that’s what rednecks are made of. I hope I am one of those. If you feel the same, pass this on to your redneck friends. Y’all know who ya are!
You might be a redneck if: It never occurred to you to be offended by the phrase, ‘One nation, under God.’
You might be a redneck if: You’ve never protested about seeing the 10 Commandments posted in public places.
You might be a redneck if: You still say ‘ Christmas’ instead of ‘Winter Festival.’
You might be a redneck if: You bow your head when someone prays.
You might be a redneck if: You stand and place your hand over your heart when they play the National Anthem.
You might be a redneck if: You treat our armed forces veterans with great respect, and always have.
You might be a redneck if: You’ve never burned an American flag, nor intend to.
You might be a redneck if: You know what you believe and you aren’t afraid to say so, no matter who is listening.
You might be a redneck if: You respect your elders and raised your kids to do the same.
You might be a redneck if: You’d give your last dollar to a friend.
God Bless the USA!
IF YOU DON’T STAND BEHIND OUR TROOPS FEEL FREE TO STAND IN FRONT OF THEM.

Sandee,I was thinking about having the double crunch scrimp but settled on the Bacon Cheeseburger for my meal. Celestine had a combo of asian chicken salad and patato soup.(she had to pay for her meal.all I paid for was my beverage.
WOW!What a post.I have a dulcimer book somewhere. Wait – maybe not. I may have sold it on eBay a few years ago. I never played the dulcimer, tho.I do have a full-color book about Joni Mitchell, Blue era. And one from about '75, with a pencil mark on the front. The Blue one is a songbook too. And I do believe I may also have her Clouds songbook. I have a lot of books! :)Dulcet tones of dulcimer.Suicide prevention is AWESOME. My good blogging friend, Jeanne wrote a super post on it.

I'm not a redneck but most of us raised in the South were taught these things, especially as it relates to manners and standing up for what I believe.
