My Redneck Past Is Nipping At My Heels

Visting with my Mom for a day in Vegas, and seeing a sign for an upcoming Jeff Foxworthy show, made me ponder my youth and exclaim:

You Might Be A Redneck If:
  • Your parents made homemade sauerkraut in a giant garbage can on the front porch.
  • Your mother butchered a deer by herself on the same front porch.
  • You were going to be called "Jim Bob" if you'd been born a boy.
All of the above are true. And my Step-Dad made sure to remind us that all of these things happened before he was around.

We butchered our deer as a family in the privacy of our own garages. It kept the sun off our necks, and therefore kept us from being rednecks.
