Does anyone else miss Lewis Grizzard?

[miles]

With everything going on now I was wondering what kind of column he'd write.

If you don't know who he was, you wouldn't understand. It's a Southern thing.

"Aim low boys, they're ridin' Shetland Ponies!"

I'm not sure exactly what it would say, but you can bet your sweet ass it would have something to do with grits.

If those damn terrorists ate more grits, this wouldn't have happened.

I love his work. And you are right...it is a Southern thing.

Grits. Damn you people are weird.

But in a lovable way. Where the fuck are my Fruity Pebbles?

What are Grits ??????

 

[Problem Child]

a southern excuse for breakfast, or

a useful way to get rid of extra hog feed.

 

[Oliver Clozoff]

oink, oink!

Watch it, gherkin boy. Some of us love that piggie food.

Somebody from California calling Southerners weird? Now that's a switch! lol

"I have not yet begun to fight!" John Paul Jones, Adm. USN, upon being asked to surrender.

Well well PC, I see that you're up on your grits.
Would you eat them off my navel? heh

Southern women are weird in a way you can't even imagine

Fruity pebbles...you truly are a sick fuck. But I hear the weather in Barcelona is nice all year round.

I loved Lewis Grizzard. I am a transplant to Texas from the Midwest & his column ran in the paper here for a long time. His columns & books helped me understand the people of the south much better. His passing was a true loss.

Ol' Lewis was a hoot, wasn't he?

BTW: You have a great name for a Texan. Until you said you were a transplant, I thought you might be a descendant of one of the bravest men who ever breathed air. James Fannin led a group of 160 (!!!!) men from Washington-on-the-Brazos toward San Antonio to provide reinforcements for the Texans in the Alamo, who (as Fannin well knew) were surrounded by an well equipped, well trained army of 3000 Mexicans.
