Close to Home by John McPherson for September 18, 2010

Ha,she said ho down.

I hate trying to come up with jokes aboutt a TV show I know nothing about. It’s a terrible situation.

She yelled “Hoedown” at the local PTA meeting, and all of the women hit the floor.

COYOTY** I share your air wave ignorance but what’s terrible?

^I’ve about it, but we don’t have TV.

Did she say he was taking a ho down?

Something like this could only happen in New Jersey !

Coyoty, fret not. I wouldn’t get the joke myself and I’m from Joisey!! (And I DON’T CARE!!)

I think the joke is that tractor. Not much more than an overgrown lawnmower.

Which makes me think of our pastor, who is from Nebraska. I asked him if the cornfields here made him think of home and he said “That’s what those are? I thought someone forgot to mow the grass!”

And if you really want to know, the silo is the next to LAST place I would take Sally Jo to kiss her. The last place would be the manure lagoon.

i just heard about jersey shore on a pbs talk show today. never heard of it before. the npr folks suggest maybe better dissemination of it if they had something the other 49 states (like hawaii) would “identify” with. typical liberalists. trying to prop up a dead horse. or donkey. heh.

@cdward - That was priceless! :D

sigh. yet again media makes Nebraskans look like uncultured hicks. Three things you should google: Henry-Doorly Zoo, SAC Museum, Downtown Omaha.

I said “situation”, but no one got it. Arrrgh.
