Let's see here. My name is George Pickett, V. My father, George Pickett, IV leaves me a trunk full of a bunch of old Civil War junk that I probably know was handed down to him by his pappy, George Pickett, III. This tells me maybe it's worth something. Now I hear tell of a battle in the Civil War known as Gettysburg. Since I live below the Mason-Dixon Line, I have heard a bunch of stories in the lore of the Confederacy; none more famous than the ill-fated, heroic charge during that there Gettysburg battle led by General George Pickett. Funny that he has the same name as I do. You don't suppose we're kin, do you? Nope. I'da been told if that General Pickett were relation. Still, there's all this Civil War stuff my daddy gave me. I wonder how much it's worth. What? That damn Yankee sold my Civil War stuff for 10 times what he paid me for it? It's General Pickett stuff? Why didn't he tell me General George Pickett was my great-great grandfather. Why I'll sue the SOB to get my stuff back and my money too. Senator Helms should start an investigation right quick. Those artsy-fartsy Northerners are dupin' his constituents again.
