Bullshit. His buddy threw it at him.

Mississippi right?

Exactly.

LOL. Some SOB throws a snake at me and they’d get shot. 🤠

Good thing it wasn’t the little head.


Been hot this year in the dirty south (601).

Haven really had any “bust the ground” cold weather.

Snakes are still out.

Which head??

Conrad,
If you’re trying to be funny, stick it up your ass. You’re the idiot living in 10 months of winter with all the preppers.
Come on down tough man, we’ll welcome you with our special party

My God man, it is a joke, not a dick...no reason to take it so hard!

If he'd known it was gonna swell up that big, he'd have done that a long time ago.

Yep.

Sharecropper prolly done had one Natty lite too many while listening to Freebird by the bonfire.

Or the dukes of hazard theme song....

Straightening the curves.....

I think he’s a smart mouth, and have for a while.

It could also be that Jim has a sense of humor...

Some people I know could use a little.

If you are gonna snap at every smart mouth, you are gonna be busy.

Schit....we used to throw snakes at each other all the time!

Must be a Titans fan.....

That’s my style Dave, but I’ve been on the wagon 10 years past November. But damn that’s a good song.
I’m touchy bout Me hom sate

At least now I can watch the local TV news, out of Nashville, without all the apechit crazy Titans stuff.

You threw snakes at each other? Why? What would possess a person to do such a thing? In that scenario, who do you hate more?

I bet thats a relief!

Like here when Christmas is over and we get our radio station back.

I’ve chased so and son in law with live rattlesnakes. It’s a wonder I never was bitten. I was not drinking.

Folks that joke about MS really don’t know what they talking about. We good folks, just like any others.

Well....you had to throw them if you couldn't get close enough to attach them to his ear.

You never played snake tag?

Schit....I mentioned a while ago that I was moving down there when I finally finish going broke up here.

I should probably start building an immunity to sweet tea however......

Yes. Sweet tea is the official state drink.

Gotta eat fried bologna Sammiches too!

I like bologna.....but I like my homemade headcheese better.

Lots of people are deathly afraid of snakes. My son in law gets my daughter to kill copperheads when he runs across one. The funny part is he is a decorated police officer and army vet.

Take his man card away.

Which headcheese are you talking about............lol.

Secret family recipe......

I get along OK with snakes.





If they start irritating me I tell 'em to play with each other.





Butting heads with a 'head ain't the best plan I've heard.

Conrad,
I sincerely apologize if you were only joking. But I’ve been pissed since Sherman burned Vicksburg, and we ain’t got much going for us but our pride. I’ve heard it all my life, sometimes I take exception, sometimes I don’t. Anyway I was short on my leash, I’m tipping my hat and moving on.
And yes, we had snake wars, chicken snakes were best as they always bit fast.

This, and Jim is a nice guy anyway, but I'd hate to be around if he did get pissed.

Hes just trying to act like that other Mt wise ass.

Sharecropper, no worries.

Yeah, I was just messing around.

When I describe to people what its like to live where I do.....they ask why in the hell would anyone live there.



Just too stubborn to leave. Things will be better next year!

We hope you do well and keep raising that beef, Jim.

Not many are tough enough to handle that job.

Jag,
I really never cared about size, strength or number if that’s what you’re implying. I’ve been on both ends, scared money don’t win, any self respecting southern boy learns that early. If you want to chime in know my rules, I don’t care about yours.

Thanks Conrad,

Nor I yours. I was explaining things. Go up there and whoop his ass for all I care, or get the chip knocked off your block.

The funny part is much of Mississippi is really civic minded, civilized, organized, and outdoor oriented.

Snakes ain’t no joke down south, especially on these global warming winter days

Lol!!!!
"Since Sherman burned Vicksburg"
Thats kinda a good analogy of long standing hard feelings I geuss.

TFF!!!


Sherman actually didnt burn Vicksburg.
It was Jackson he burned.
Twice.
Mighta been 3 times actually in a 6 or 7 month period. IIRC.



Vicksburg Battlefield is a pretty cool place to spend a day.

Champions Hill area was plowed and green 4 months after that battle.

You guys shoulda burned the bridge over the big black river.
Woulda slowed down the advance of Grant on the back side of Vickburg by a week instead of a day.

Joe Johnston didnt help out vicksburg much lingering around for 40 some odd days and basically refusing to help releive the seige by making grant fight on 2 fronts.
Johnston wasnt much good at anything other than defensive retreat anyways.
He proved that again against Sherman later on in Georgia.
Did the same thing on the peninsular against McClellan earlier in the war.



Why aint the state of Mississippi tried to buy that land on Champions Hill and make it a proper histotic site????

Visual needed...

Holy SHÎT renegade

I’ve been hunting rocks with ken Burns all this time

Hey jag, check this out

laffing

Clash of cultures.

North v. South.

Throwin Garter snakes v. throwin copperheads.

Just a little bit different.

Renegade,
I’m un sure about Champion Hills, much of Vicksburg is both National and State Parks. They actually camped on our farm in Raymond, still standing today in a barn with 2 cannon ball holes and a Holly Tree pock marked with target practice is my guess. I was frog shooting on Snake Creek which runs through on our place, heard a odd sound, picked him up and a bayonet in the same grab! Many, many buttons, bullets and a few coins. Find the center of Hinds County on Google earth, it’s a sandstone marker. The barn is within 1/4 mile of the marker, and Snake creek runs beside the marker. The frog and bayonet story is within eye sight. I swear I thought it was Sherman that got Vicksburg and Atlanta.
If you ever want to feel sorry for anyone, make it the young boys in Vicksburg that had to mow their yards with push mowers on those hills before mowers had gas engines. Hardest damn job I’ve EVER had, ought to be a law against it.

I'm pretty good at making western themed Oragami donald duck figurines too!!!

LOL!!!!

Post a pics of that holey barn sometime

Wonder too if it’s made of chestnut

wildgame supper is next Satruhday

I’ve told everyone I shared and that you prayed to receive Christ.

Make me look good bro.

Frogsnacks!

Hahaha. Tff, Slum.

Sherman got Atlanta.
Vicksburg was pretty well leveled during the seige by union artiillery and gunboats on the river.
Most of the residents of vicksburg lived underground during the seige, some in pretty elaborate and equipped dug out homes.

Some of the 1st designs of handgrenades in the civil war were used at vicksburg.
The trenches in some points of the lines were that close.


Only thing we got up around here is remnants of the iron industry prior to the battle of ft donaldson and the occupation of nashville.


We got arrowheads though!!!!!!

Lol!!

I aint going to that.....

I'm fugging catholic...
I step foot in a place that uses the KJV bible.
I be pushing schitt to the limit with " The Jesus and his Dad".
going into a Baptist Church and whatnot per the Vatican.



They got Mcdonalds Quarter Pounders to get heathens like me to come??????
Lol!!!!

Eastern Mt got prairie rattlers up the yin-yang......not as long as a diamondback, but no joke

BYOB

Bring your own burger


Be some homemade pee-can pie (said with a squint), I got some inside info

Don’t worry I won’t let any butch hairdo dykes proselytize to you.

Be low key BG

And most of all, there will be no snake handling.

Slum,
I’ve to much sweat on the dirt of that barn putting up hay I sure wish I had a picture. I lost most pictures of my early life in a 1994
Tornado. I’ll check with brothers, they might. Don’t get down there much anymore sad to say.

Oh I gotcha. I misunderstood.

Thought it might be where you’re at now.

All that knowledge and only thing Slumdog cares about is you pulling deers outta the woods for him.

Yeah....
I know man.....
Some guys man
Some guys....


Lol!!!
