The only one of those I come close to is the stereo one. It is equal to my car's stereo basically and it's a surround sound systemt hat works with my xbox/dvd player, computer, tv/sattellite and vcr.

Well, I guess Jeff Foxworthy went about as far as he could go with the redneck jokes, huh? Kinda hard to believe IMO.:-)

With the exception of the first one...we're pretty sad. Well, at least *muddy* is. hahahha.:-P

If you would rather look up a local phone number on the Internet than in the Phone Book, there is a good chance you're a geek.

You might be a geek if you look up a word in the "on-line" dictionary to verify its spelling when you have the exact same dictionary sitting beside your keyboard. Oh no! Muddy, I think you've created a monster! :-)

I'd rather look it up online than in a phone book, but that's mostly because we don't get phone books here anymore unless we ask for them. Plus it is faster.

I have a niiice 1911 Websters on CD somewhere...but dictionary.com is so easy when I'm playing word games on the internet.

I personally like m-w.com (merriam-webster). It's easier if you have absolutely nooo clue how to spell something because it gives you 10 possibilities of what it *thinks* you might be looking for.

Oh, and...."word games on the internet"? Is that the newest craze among your peers? :-)

dictionary.com will do that too...except it'll give you a never ending list. :-)

No, mom got me into playing litterati on yahoo.

Literati, huh? Ya know, I had *never* heard of the game before in my life. So seeing as how I had no idea what it was, I looked it up. I realized one thing:

Apparently what you guys call 'literati' down south, *we* here up north call *Scrabble*. :-)

Actually, I *did* read that they are a little different. As far as scrabble goes - that's my mom's favorite game (I always loathed it until a few years ago). I do remember (no one else - including you - is going to care about this story...but I'm going to tell it anyway) one time...many moons ago... my cousin and I were having a hard time finishing a game (that my mother dragged us into) because neither one of us had anything left worth playing. So in his desperation, he put 2 letters on the board... the letters 'b' and 'u'. I asked him what "bu" ment. He said it was a "hillbilly ghost". I gave him a confused look. He informed me that instead of the ghost saying "boo" it said "bu". I decided to let him have it on the grounds of creativity - not to mention - desperation. Besides, it was the first time I actually *enjoyed* the game.

Ok, ok...it was a stupid story....but hey, I guess you had to be there. :-)

well, we call it scrabble down here too. Never heard of literati either until mom showed it to me on Yahoo! (and she's a yankee from Wisconsin I should remind you.)

"and she's a yankee from Wisconsin I should remind you."

Ah...I did not know that. So she defected from the north to the south did she? :-)

yes she did. My mom grew up on a dairy farm in Wisconsin. The farm was in the family for about a century, but no one in the family wanted to continue farming so it was sold a couple years ago to the people my aunt and uncle (who bought the farm from my grandparents) had been renting to, after they gave up farming.

"My mom grew up on a dairy farm in Wisconsin."

Gee, a dairy farm in Wisconsin...imagine that! :-D
Don't tell her I'm a vegetarian.

Hehe, you'd be proud. My family was always anal about not using hormones or anti-biotics. My uncle (mom's brother) onthe other hand rebelled and became a salesman for the company that started marketing HgH to dairy farms.

"...you'd be proud. My family was always anal about not using hormones or anti-biotics."

I'm not only proud but highly impressed! Not like you guys need *my* "praise", but it is refreshing to hear more farmers breaking from the "norm" to do things right. However, the no using of hormones and anti-biotics still doesn't help me because *I* just can't digest the stuff anyway.

"My uncle (mom's brother) onthe other hand rebelled and became a salesman for the company that started marketing HgH to dairy farms."

Well, we all have our "black sheeps" in the family don't we? hehe...truth be told, I think *I'm* becoming more and more the one in mine. :-P
