    And I grew up being called a Hillbilly

    My Grandpa was the type that could build about anything from scrap junk... and it would look and work damn good. He'd of made a good homesteader. Even had making moonshine down pat.

    I remember flying home from Ft Carson Colorado to a 10 day leave in Petaluma, CA. I hated flying anyway and we stopped in Salt Lake City for an hour or so, I asked the Stewardess where I could get a drink and she told me Utah was a dry state. This was in 1965. I'd never heard of a dry state before. Years later, my father in law who was from Kansas, explained the whole bath tub Gin thing and how they had to drive from county to county to get beer. This is uncivilized behavior.

    Sounds like when I told my elderly neighbor I'd quit drinking some years before...he looked shocked and said "Oh dear! That's a terrible state of affairs"...
