You got it right. Those are the people who will still be around, one second after.
Country Boys Can Survive. Skin a buck, run a trot line— ain’t too many things these old boys cain’t do.
While all here are at it, check the motto of NC “To BE, Rather than to SEEM” (a reference to being between two primadonna states— history on the motto is a good read).
“A vale of humility between two mountains of conceit.” NC was regarded as backward, unenlightened, the “Rip Van Winkle State.” VA and SC were in turn regarded as insufferably arrogant.
My, how times have changed.
