KyBrad3 -
Not slander, just a little good-natured ribbin'! It is interesting to note, however, that most posters still view KY as a southern state anyway, regardless ot the secession technicality. In fact, here in Alabama we have a single County which never technically seceeded (Winston Co., I believe). They were some weird times to live in, to be sure.

KYBrad3, How in the world does a good KY boy end up in MS????

This Lexington boy ended up in AL but MS!!!! LOL

Midway is a great little town and if the wind is right, it smells like &^%$....er....I mean.....MONEY, yeah, that is it!! I get to moan because I used to work on the farms during the summer!!

His gunbroker ID it TKSIMS or something like that. Good idea, I will run the SNs. Maybe we can get this guy put in the room with iron curtains.

I am looking for someone with an FFL to take these guns back and shove them up .... er deposit them on Mr. Sims' doorstep. $100 credit on our website to anyone willing to do that for me.

CMWill-
Clearly this guy is screening your calls. When he sees your name on the caller ID, he chooses not to answer. Call him, but do this. Dial *67 then the number. When you do this, it appears as a "restricted number" on the Caller ID. He may pick up. Good luck.

It's SLANDER, I say, just slander against a good fellow SEC school. I mean how would you like to be basically called an Ohioian?? *shudder*.

Seriously though, I think that all the good natured ribbin from other southerners is fun. It sure feels like the rest of the south has never quite forgiven Kentucky for not seceding with them. They certainly haven't let us forget it (or maybe those hurt feelings come from being bounced around on the hardwood in Basketball for so many years??).

My response is that they should be thankful that as the northernmost State in the south, or at least the SEC, we are holding back the flood of wacky midwesterners. *GRIN*

Interesting that you talk about Winston County not seceding. I think there were a few counties here in Mississippi that didn't secede either. The south wasn't quite as unified as some might like to think during those crazy times of the Civil War.

Ha, funny stuff. I worked at 3 Chimneys a few summers myself and you are right. That whiff in the air is definitely the smell of $$$ from the four-legged athletes. I was born and raised in Lexington though and go back for UK basketball games and Keeneland. It kills me that I can't go back for the big game against Florida this weekend... grr.

As for ending up in MS, well I went to Millsaps College here in Jackson and then had a job offer from due to that connection that I couldn't turn down.

Having an Alabamian put down Mississippi is about like a West Virginian putting down Kentucky. I mean really, its like watching brothers or cousins fighting. Y'all do have a nicer beach... but the hunting is way better over this way. LOL

Mud is nastier your way too!! I have never seen stuff grab a 4 wheeler or truck and stick them so bad, especially in the Delta. Totally out of hand!

I get back for the October meet at Keeneland. Hell, we hardly get basketball coverage in the paper here. Miss that too!!

To KYBrad3:

I have a friend named Anne Peters who works at Three Chimneys. Did you get to know her while you worked there?

Ho-Hum. Just another horror story to add to the many we have heard on here time after time. No offense guys and I don't mean to be gruff but when are people going to learn not to buy stuff over the internet, sight inseen or whatever? A book or magazine is one thing but thousands of dollars for a gun unseen is.....?? Every time I hear a story where someone sent money for a gun unseen I try to imagine who is worse-the guy who ripped someone off or the guy who trusted someone to send him a gun unseen. You should know by now you are just going to get ripped off. I know everybody trusts people and people are going to continue to do it, but......??? ........Now, I tried to go lightly on you but did I scold you bad enough?

By the way we have a standing joke here in Ohio that all us Buckeye fans find amusing.......Ready?? ..... You know how to get a UK basketball fan off of your front porch? YOU PAY HIM FOR THE PIZZA !!!!! LOL
