I would have heard about it on the news if a couple of floaters had turned up in the Ohio River or been dragged off by wild dogs.
I may be wrong on this, but don’t Eskimos squat in a small hole they have dug out in the ice to give birth? The baby is so cold, it starts crying on its own.
I think I read that in National Geographic when I was a youngster.
How does an Eskimo get pregnant? They rub their noses together and have a little snot. Why oh why do I remember that?
Don’t make fun of Suthreners or I’ll send over my pet snake to visit you. Sparky likes the taste of little dogs.
Stay warm, ti.
some day your girl will make you a PAPAW. LMAO!
((Shudder))
If you have a potluck, everyone brings that danged green bean casserole.

and what a surly, cantankerous, pain in the @$$ papaw you will be!!!
We called one of our grands “Grumpy” but he was a great sport and liked it.
Mrs. Davis on the campaign trail referred to herself during one appearance as a RINO — a "Republican in Name Only." She voiced support for a moratorium on the death penalty and talked about giving homosexuals the legal benefits of marriage, while downplaying the fact that she sponsored a constitutional ban against same-sex "marriage" that Virginia voters passed last year.
I can’t even feel bad that she lost.
Letting a Dem run to your right = near guaranteed loss.
My grandkids can call me "Doc."
