If this doesn't make you think twice when walking on a wet floor i don't know what will. Yesterday at work I was heading outside to let some inmates strip the floor.  Right before that i had to walk to the main unit escorting a inmate to medical through the wet grass. Well not thinking while heading outside that my boots were already wet, i will just take it easy on the floor covered with stripper and make it outside. Boy was i wrong!!! well lets just say after 5 mins of lying in the floor and the help of a inmate i finally made it outside but with a busted knee and my front two teeth missing pieces-yes i could fit a straw through my front teeth with my month closed. So today i am sitting home, sore as shit with a busted knee but thanks to Dr. Rick Howdy and his staff i have my front teeth back looking like i had never fallen. Now looking back on everything from yesterday, i will never ever walk on a wet floor again!

A Southern Education...

If you don't like this you ain't from around here!!!!!!!!!

Tips about the south - If you are going to live or visit in the South you will need a set of these rules:

1. . That farm boy you see at the gas station did more work before breakfast than you do all week at the gym.

2. . It's called a "gravel road."  No matter how slow you drive, you're going to get dust on your Navigator.  Drive it or get out of the way.

3. .  The red dirt ...it's called clay.  Red Clay.  If you like the color don't wash your car for a couple weeks - it'll be permanent.

4. . We all started hunting and fishing when we were seven years old.  Yeah, we saw Bambi.  We got over it.

5. . Go ahead and bring you $600 Orvis Fly Rod. Don't cry to us if a flathead breaks it off at the handle.  We have a name for those little 13-inch trout you fish for.....bait

6. . Pull your pants up.  You look like an idiot.

7. . If that cell phone rings while a bunch of mallards are making their final approach, we will shoot it.  You might want to ensure it's not up to your ear at the time.

8. . No, there's no "Vegetarian Special" on the menu.  Order steak.  Order it rare.  Or, you can order the Chef's Salad and pick off the two pounds of ham and turkey.

9. . Tea . . . yeah, we have tea.  It comes in a glass over ice and is sweet.  You want it hot . . . sit it in the sun.  You want it unsweetened . . . add a lot of water.

10. . You bring Coke into my house, it better be brown, wet, and served over ice.

11. . So you have a sixty thousand-dollar car.  We're real impressed.  We have a quarter of a million-dollar combine that we only use two weeks a year.

12. . Let's get this straight.  We have one stoplight in town.  We stop when it's red.  We may even stop when it's yellow.

13. . We eat dinner together with our families.  We pray before we eat (yeah, even breakfast).  We go to church on Wednesdays and Sundays and we go to the high school football games on Friday nights.  We still address our seniors with "yes, sir" and "yes, ma'am," and we sometimes still take Sunday drives around town to see friends and neighbors.

14. .  We don't do "hurry up" well.

15. . Greens . . . yeah, we have greens, but you don't putt on them.  You boil them with salty fatback, bacon or a ham hock.

16. . Yeah, we eat catfish, bass, bream (pronounced brim) and carp.  You really want sushi and caviar?  It's available at the bait shop.

17. . They are pigs.  That's what they smell like.  Get over it.  Don't like it?  Interstate 65 goes two ways . . . Interstate 40 goes the other two.  Pick one.

18. . Grits are corn.  You put butter, salt, and maybe even some pepper on them.  If you want to put milk and sugar on them, then you want Cream of Wheat . . . go to Kansas.  That would be I-40 west.

19. . The "Opener" refers to the first day of deer season or dove sesson.  Both are holidays.  You can get pancakes, cane syrup, sausage before daylight at the church on either day.

20. . So every person in every pickup waves?  Yeah, it's called being friendly.  Understand the concept?

21. . Yeah, we have golf courses.  Don't hit in the water hazards.  It spooks the fish and bothers the gators . . . and if you hit it in the rough, we have these things called diamondbacks, and they're not baseball players.

22. . That Highway Patrol Officer that just pulled you over for driving like an idiot . . . his name is "Sir," no matter how young he is.

23. . We have lots of pine trees.  They have sap.  It drips from them.  You park your Navigator under them, and they'll leave a logo on your hood.

24. . You burn and American flag in our state, you get beat up.  No questions.  The liberal contingent of our state legislature, all four of them, enacted a measure to stop this.  There is now a $2.50 fine for beating up a flag burner.

25. . No, we don't care how you do things up North.  If it is so great up there, why not visit a Northern state or stay there?  And no, down here, we don't have a accent, you do!

26. . We have a lot more guns than we do telvision sets, and we LOVE TV!  If you don't like guns, remember the Interstate system works BOTH ways!

27. . There are 3 major spectator sports in the south: Football, NASCAR, and stormy weather!

28. . In the south we pull the car over when a funeral procession goes by, it's called showing respect.  And even if you complain about it, we will still pull our cars over for your funeral, which may be sooner than you think.

29. . Those briars you are complaining about scratching your $500 Gucci shoes aren't weeds, they are blackberry bushes.  They serve TWO functions, they produce blackberries for blackberry jam, and they test how tough your clothing is - we like them!

30. . If you don't like any of this, I-95 North will get you where you belong.  Oh!  By the way, before you leave take a couple illegal immigrants with you.  Bless you sweet little hearts. 

Bye now!!

You hear??
