<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I was in Trumann about 15 years ago and that's
EXACTLY what I saw. My wife and I, (then fiancée), were on our way to
Wisconsin and drove a couple hundred miles out of our way because we wanted to
see the Baldwin factory. No one new we were coming, it was a spontaneous
idea. When we got there it was closed and a security guard reminded
us it was a three day weekend. I recall a prominently
displayed sign on a fence that said NOT HIRING. As we wound our way
back to the main highway all I could think of was <U>what a dump</U>. It
was. Yes I love hush puppies, I always request a double order whenever I
come across a place that has them. The fried fish and sweet tea I could do
without. Rednecks are ALWAYS fun to make fun of, that's why Jeff Foxworthy
and Larry the Cable Guy are millionaires and piano technicians aren't. You
do of course realize that Trumann is in Arkansas, not Tennessee,
right?</FONT></DIV>

I’ve been to Trumann and I didn’t see any of what you said. What’s the
matter Rob, don’t you like fried catfish, hushpuppies, sweet tea, and let’s
add some vinegar cole slaw; how about a thick slice of onion...and if you
really want a good ol’ Northwest Tennessee Catfish dinner, add some Country
Ham, Fried Chicken, soup beans smothered with a hearty dousing of “Elwood’s
Famous Blazin’ Hot Sauce,” fried onion rings. My, my, what a meal!
