You Might Be a REDNeck...

[cheeptrick]

As I was driving down the road...I kept envisioning flapping, feathers flying, and squawking.

But she was cool as a cucumber...sticking her head out and swaying to the music!

Hope its okay to add this, kinda long but funny...

You might be a redneck if...

Your screen door is "fashioned" with duct tape.

Our storm door has always been an accident waiting to happen.

A few days ago, we were going into the low 40's so I decided to lower the glass section of the door. All "seemed" fine until a bit later when the dog wanted out. I open the door for her, proceed to pull it shut and the glassed frame section falls from the door onto the top of my foot. The bottom of it caught me on the right ankle and scraped it good, it hurt worse than it was, in general.

So, I decide to "take a sad song, and make it better" (Beatles, "Hey Jude").
We needed to replace the screen in the door anyways and decided to surprise DH.

I got the screen frame unscrewed, set up the new screen (recycled from a side job), am totally proud of myself....the rubber splining is to big for the groove of the frame!

Broke out the trusty duct tape to remedy the situation, for the time being!

Duct tape is a rednecks best friend. I should know.

Yes...only sporadically and only 1 hen is laying. She skips occassionally a day here or there. I was keeping them in the run and not allowing them to free range and only still 1 egg a day. So I just let them free range...only so many more days till they are locked in because of the snow!
I'll get eggs then I'm sure!
PUT out my heat lamp over the waterer...nice and warm in there in the morning!

I pride myself on being politically incorrect, which is why I always refer to our town's transfer station as the dump. When I get corrected, I tell that person that I don't care what they do with my refuse......after I DUMP it there.

Regardless of what you call it, on weekends in my town it is a happening spot. There is a guy from the next town up that people refer to as chicken man.....because he can be seen driving around with either his chickens or guinea hens on the special little platform he built on the passenger seat. Maybe I'll take my R.I.R. roo Brewster to the dump this coming Sunday morning. Who says you have to live in the south to be a redneck?

OK, my redneck moment of the week... (while we're on true confessions here)

Have a VERY yankee, Queens NY'er, city-girl transplant friend here that was bringing her daughter over to see the chickens.

When she is driving down my road yesterday, what does she see, but ME, on the John Deere lawn tractor, parked up by the mailbox just siting there on the lawnmower reading the mail.

She had a big laugh at that one... Of course I had to explain to her that I hadn't driven my lawn tractor up there JUST to get the mail, since I had to take some concrete in the trailer around to the garage for storage, and then figured I'd ride on up to the mailbox and get the mail before driving back down to put my mower away...yadda, yadda, yeah.... right....

She had thought I'd just taken the tractor out for a spin to get the mail. Silly city-slickers!

Ok here is my Redneck story,

I have Directv, and a pretty clear spot where my satallite sits. Well there is big ole Oak tree up on the hill above where the dish is installed. Every so often when a gentle wind would blow, I would lose my signal, now this is a big tree and I wanted this limb cut, wasn't gonna happen, so what do we do??? We shoot at the limb with a muzzleloader, two shots worked like a charm.

So if use a muzzleloader to trim the trees so your directv will work, "you might be a redneck"
