Boy does that get my wife upset *LOL*

6. The Salvation Army declines your furniture.
and now the dump is closed as well. The yard is filling fast.

Now that the new screen door is on, saturday nights don't seem as fun any more.

3. Your boat has not left the driveway in 15 years.
Well it is a canoe but I guess it still counts. Rather then dump the water out, I just put bug spray right in the water to kill the skeeter babies *LOL*
1 gallon per 100 gallons of rain water. hmmm maybe that is why the fly swatter isn't needed any more?

Neither am I. I am just a guy with a dog, who drives a pick-up. Well, two pick-ups. Watches a lot of NASCAR and has a lot of junk around my yard. All though, I have to admit my dog and I have used the same tree on more than one occasion.

the Random House dictionary published in 1968 defines a redneck as "n. desparaging- (in the southern US) an uneducated, white farm laborer"

but it's come to mean ohhh soo much more........i'll see what they say online
