1. BWA-ha-ha-ha-ha!!
On the other hand, I love turnip greens (and okra and fried green tomatoes). Does that make me a redneck?!

3. What's redneck about bib overalls?
I'm wearing them now.

They're comfy, and good for messing around where it's dirty or there are sharp, pointy things that would rip a pair of khakis to shreds.

Of course, I wouldn't wear them to court....

6. two more, courtesy of a very funny friend
He would also refer to the "Prime Directive" as the "Barbecue Directive":
it is forbidden to judge or change the barbecue sauce (tomato or vinegar-based) of a civilization!

The Borg would be called "The Mullet" (business in the front - party in the back)
