BamaReb--Your Momma making any extra cornbread? I may not be Southern born, but I know where they make the best cornbread and pecan pie. In view of your GGG Grandpappy's inclinations I reckon you might as well stick with tradition and drill that Georgia Yankee in the back when he shows up for the duel. Cut down on the ritual formalities and make sure the cornbread is still good and warm when you get home. As far as I know all of my Yankee ancestors survived the war so I guess none of them met your GGG Grandpappy. Likely just as well, mine came from a couple of flat out fighting units and one of us might not be here posting. Druss I would have flamed you but: Damn! that cornbread sounds good. I do bribe easy [not cheap but easy].

>>I challenge you to a dual. A duel? Alrighty, then. One thing first: I'm not a Yankee by even the farthest stretch of the imagination. Second, you never did answer my question: What's the difference between a Yankee and a DAMN Yankee? You know, there is one good thing about Alabama.. At least it's not Mississippi. Bring your bassin' rod, flippin' rod, pool cue, hawg stick or whatever you want to call it to West Point Lake at first light on Sunday. Right after a hot breakfast involving plenty of biscuits, butter, eggs, grits, bacon, pancakes and hot coffee, we'll square off over the water. Standard bass tournament rules. Weigh-in at that big-ass marina on the Georgia side at 2:00. Loser cleans and filets ALL the fish AND trailers the boat. There's nothing to settle a dispute like a good day of bassing. Personally, I don't go for finesse rigs when fishing for bass. A sawed-off pool cue and some 45-pound line works wonders. When you set the hook, that fish IS coming out of the water. And if you pull hard enough, it comes out of the water cleaned and fileted. Bring plenty of beer, pork rinds and vienna sausages. And you're riding in the front, 'cause I like to drive.
