Dear Answer Man: I think you are a Clinton-loving, big government, bed-wetting liberal. What do you say to that? — Angry White Guy Dear A.W.G.: Dang. You are very observant. I didn’t think it showed.
Dear Answer Man: I think you are a Rush Limbaugh-loving, red-necked male chauvinist pig. What do you say to that? — Angry White Woman
Dear A.W.W.: Dang. You are very observant. I didn’t think it showed. DICK YARBROUGH other. As for the good folks in Attapulgus, if it would keep out carpetbaggers who think we Southerners talk funny and marry our third cousins, they would probably welcome the wall. Sorry I can’t underwrite it, though. Fake news doesn’t pay as much as you might think.
Dear Answer Man: I understand you are back to driving after an absence of several months. Have you noticed any changes on our roads? — Luther from Luthersville
Dear Luther: Yes, I am back on the highways. And, no, not much has changed. I am pleased to say the Hi-Yo Hitchens Initiative remains in force. As you may recall, that was a groundbreaking piece of legislation sponsored by Rep. Bill Hitchens, R-Rincon, that declares no matter how fast you are going, say warp speed, and someone comes up behind you at, say warp speed times two, you must move over or be cited by the police for something other than going warp speed. Things seem to be working as intended, except when a semi breaks the sound barrier.
Well, boys and girls, that’s all the time we have today. Be sure and tune in same time next week when our topic will be what squirrels and California have in common. Hint: Think nuts. In the meantime, keep those cards and letters coming in.
