See below - When I was a youn-un, I lived in Virginia. The following brought back a lot of memories. Was poor and lived on a farm with my grandpa/ma - 0nly thing running was me doing the chores like clean and trim and fill the coal-oil lamps, tear up the old catalogs for toilet paper (out house) , pumping water into the buckets, starting the wood stove in the morning and most important milking the cow, "sloping" the pigs and shelling corn to feed the chickens - and getting the eggs every morning. Was a great life in it's own way. Sam in Daly City

A West Virginian


Only a West Virginian knows the difference between a
hissie fit and a conniption fit, and that you don't
HAVE them, you PITCH them.
