    One of my favorites.

    The movie gives us a sobering glimpse into the future... over a long period of time, the sophisticated, educated suburbanites quit propagating because they don't have time for children. Meanwhile, the rednecks keep spittin' out kids by the millions. Finally, the entire country is run by red n in Dixie and that's where my heart will always be, though I hang my hat in Texas for now.
    No I never seen it. However, that reminds me of the time I had a leak in the upstairs bathtub U-trap and it was leaking down from the ceiling of the downstairs bathroom. I cut a hole in the ceiling and cut out a section of a empty plastic Shout bottle that my wife had thrown away and duct taped it to catch any leaking water. I found an old washing machine hose that would screw on the screw cap end of the Shout bottle. I then routed the hose so it emptied any water coming from the leak in the upstairs bathtub into the downstairs bathtub. Problem fixed. No plumber needed. A few years later I did finally call a plumber, who laughed at it, as he called it a genius idea.

    P.S. I guess you could call that redneck plumbing.

    i feel all need to be weary of patrioticism! it's never about a country, & there's no such thing as a christian country! there may be weeds visiting and attending church meetings, but it is known who planted those. may we know grace in every moment when dealing with weeds, knowing who the BEST gardener is!
