Posts Tagged “West Virginia”

I did five separate blog posts about a year ago with five different videos. I figured that they were worth revisiting, I will link them in this blog post also.

At the bottom of this post, you will find links to the original posts, that have bits of dialog also posted with them. Well worth checking out.

On an unrelated note, if you happen to have any spare HDMI switches, let me try to talk you out of one.

What season? Hunting season of course! That’s right, I am a hunter / gatherer. I like to eat a lot of fresh meat in the fall, wild plants (ramps) in the spring, nuts and berries in the late summer. Ah yes, living in West Virginia certainly has it perks.

A very generous hunting season is what I consider to be one of those perks. We have a lot of large and small game in this great state. Everything from the 300 pound Black Bear to 1/2 pound Ruffed Grouse. I thoroughly enjoy my time spent in the woods and becoming one with nature.

Bow hunting season (for Deer) begins on October 18th this year, and I can hardly contain myself. I used to bowhunt religiously, but I stopped somewhere in the early 2000’s. I have wanted to get back into it ever since, and this is the first year that I get to do that. Excited would be an understatement. Last time I felt like this I had to have multiple acne treatments.

So, if you don’t want to see photos of me posing with a dead bambi, you should probably watch what you read around here in the coming weeks. (Then again, I may not post them…I am undecided at this point.)

What do you guys think? Should I post pictures of me with dead deer, or should I leave that to your imaginations?

I mostly mean people in media (ie: not people in your daily life, but please feel free to share if you have a real life example). I only have a few but I am always surprised when I find myself attracted to a person I normally wouldn’t find physically attractive or sexy.

There is no order here to mine, I’m just listing.

• That girl from the ziplock baggie commercials with the really high pitched voice. I’ve looked all over for a video of her so those of you that haven’t seen the commercial know what I am talking about, but I can’t seem to find one.

• Kris Williams from Ghost Hunters. She is only televised via a night vision camera, or in extreme low light situations. I think that adds to the mystique.

• Martha Stewart. I really don’t want to explain this one…But I will say that this lady knows a little bit about everything. I once watched a show where she went into a long explanation about how to get rid of acne, and she swore by it.

Speaking of TAPS, they did a show in West Virginia last year and were only a couple hours drive from where I live. They investigated the place formerly known as “Weston State Hospital”. It was an insane asylum that all the locals here are familiar with.

I have been clamoring for a new blog design for quite some time now, but every time I get right to the point of no return, I back out. I have been with this current design going on two years now, and it is starting to get a little stale. I began working on a custom design, and fired off an email to my good buddy Canucklehead to ask him if he could help me out with a good tagline that would appear in the header.

He asked me why I was changing it, and I told him, and he convinced me that it probably wasn’t a good idea.

But I have to do something, I thought. It just the same ol’, same ol’, day in and day out.

He proceeded to send me a couple of taglines anyway, and I thought of an idea. Why not use the same header image with rotating taglines? I requested a few more taglines from him, and well, he did not disappoint, as I knew he wouldn’t. He has a knack for this kind of shit.

Anyway, if you scroll back up to the top of the page, and hit the refresh button on your browser, you will notice that the tag line changes with each refresh. Pretty fuckin’ cool, eh?

These are the current taglines in rotation:

• Putting the ‘ill’ in hillbilly.
• This blog runs on moonshine.
• Red neck, White lies, Blue collar.
• Coal mining and moon shining!
• Making Molehills out of Mountaineers since 1979.
• West Virginia: One Big Happy Family … Literally!

And of course the classic one that has been up there for a while: If you have ever stopped by my house, you came on purpose, because I live on the way to nowhere.

Now that is a great start, but I need some more. So if any of you are feeling creative today, just leave a little tagline in the comments section, and if I like it, I will put it into rotation, and you will get a link to your blog in my footer. Such as Canucklehead has.

So get to it. Come up with a good HillBilly / Hick / Redneck / West Virginia tagline. Let’s see what ya got.

In yet another thrilling State Fair of WV post I give you a crazy guy flipping a bicycle!

Okay, so maybe it wasn’t that thrilling, or crazy. Let’s just say it was different. Most BMX guys do flips in mid air and let go of the handlebars while grabbing the seat and putting their feet behind their head and a thumb up their ass. Not this guy. He safely keeps at least one wheel on the ground at all times while making sure his helmet stays fastened securely to his head.

Mr. BMX Safety Rider, You Rock! Keep watching your mail for one of my Halloween invitations!
