I know that I am a dumb hillbilly, the same folks that have been calling me by that stereotype all my life are the same folks that come to the hills and pay me $5 for 30 seconds work. I dress up real dumb, and charge $5 for them to take a picture with me. I have often wondered who is the dumbest, but I got the $5, all they got was a stupid picture, and they payed for the film. Now with that said, when I tell you the best benefits that can be found in this association is by participation, sit on your hands. When I tell you it is easy to make new friends, just work the booth at a show for a couple of hours, sit on your hands. When I tell you to sit down at a table of strangers at our banquets, and you won&#039;t be strangers when you leave, sit on your hands. When I tell you it is fun and rewarding to write things for the magazine, sit on your hands. When I tell you it is a great experience to join or start a chapter, sit on your hands. Because hillbillies are really dumb, and you can get so much more accomplished by sitting on your hands. But don&#039;t ask me how I have so many friends, and how I can learn thing, because you see, I am really dumb, I don&#039;t sit on my hands.
As far as me following Terry blindly, nah, most of the time we are at each others throat. But, I respect that he got 2/3rds of the members vote in an election with a vote count that doubled previous elections. Then we will go have dinner together, or a few beers, or both. Ya gotta know how to separate issues, and people, or it will drive ya nuts. Both are distinctly different things.
