Yo Rudy....You've gotta love a redneck. I agree with Alistair, most Americans are wonderful, warm people. I was married to one and still have a lot of dear friends there, both within the VMX scene and generally. I have to bring you to task though Rudy.....There's nothing sweeter than a schooner of Pabst Blue Ribbon on a hot day. I doesn't complicate quenching ones thirst with something distracting like taste!
I had an experience a few years ago that was so much fun I kinda missed him after we ended our short relationship. I bought some Maico bits from this guy in San Antonio, Texas that went through courteously and with no dramas. After the deal was done and he'd been paypalled he asked me if my government would permit me to sign up as recipient to his "politically enlightening but fun" blog list. When I enquired as to why my government should give a shit whether or not I subscribe to his blog his reply that " he understood from 'some friends' in Australia that our Socialist government didn't allow its citizens to subscribe to political blogs that disagreed with their socialist ideals". When I replied (tongue planted in cheek)that I had permission from my local member of parliament to receive outside political messages, he sent me my first issue of his little news blog. This was during the last election so it didn't surprise me that his it was chocka block full of the Nigger word. It was a nasty, racist, homophobic pro white America rant fest that left me speechless. Obama was a "child molesting, Muslim, communist nigger intent on getting more muslims and niggers" into places of power. Nancy Pelosi was a "bull dyke communist", England was full of "buck toothed, pasty faced inbred faggots", France should be nuked as a gift to the world gene pool......and so on. When I told him that he may be a tad off the path of what the general public believed he told me that my controlled and censored press had prevented me seeing the true picture. He asked me if I'd ever seen American TV in uncensored form and if I was ever allowed to get a visa for the USA I was welcome to stay with him for as long as I wanted, to see what it's like to live in a democracy!
Eventually the fun turned to disgust and asked to be removed from his mailing list. The last time he wrote he explained that he was saddened that "the socialist bastards" had shut him down and he wished me well in "the fight"!
