IF YOU VISIT TENNESSEE
HERE ARE SOME HINTS THAT
WILL KEEP YOU OUT OF TROUBLE

Every road in Tennessee has a nice shoulder along the side at least nine inches wide. Feel free to pull off on the shoulder if you have car trouble.

If you hear a Southerner exclaim, "Hey, y'all, watch this!" stay out of his way. These are likely the last words he will ever say.

Most Southerners do not use turn signals, and they ignore those who do. In fact, if you see a signal blinking on a car with a southern license plate, you may rest assured that it was on when the car was purchased.

If there is the prediction of the slightest chance of even the most minuscule accumulation of snow, your presence is required at the local grocery store. It does not matter if you need anything from the store, it is just something you're supposed to do.

If it can't be fried in bacon grease, it ain't worth cooking, let alone eating.

Tornadoes and Southerners going through a divorce have a lot in common. In either case, you know someone is going to lose a trailer.

As you are cursing the person driving 15 mph in a 55 mph zone, directly in the middle of the road, remember, many folks learned to drive on a model of vehicle known as John Deere, and this is the proper speed and lane position for the vehicle.

 

 

 

SMART PARROT

Bufford went on down to Spring City last Saturday night to see what was selling at the Hinker Boys' Auction.  Well, they had a parrot there that a rich lady was selling, and Bufford kindly took a likin' to the critter.  When the auctioneer brought the bird around for bidding, Bufford asked him, "Charlie, kin that parrot really talk?"  Charley Hinker assured Bufford it could talk and was real smart.

Well, the bidding commenced, and Bufford jumped right in and stayed at it all the way.  Several folks were bidding, but when the bids hit about $300, it settled down to a real mean contest between Bufford and someone at the front of the room.  Bufford finally won the bid at $500 even, though he looked a bit pained as he walked to the auction office to pay for the thing.  When he got ready to pay, Bufford again asked the auctioneer, "Are you sure that parrot kin really talk Charlie?"

Charlie said, "Bufford, I know that parrot kin talk real well on account of how it was the parrot that was the one bidding against you."
