Mel said he went by his cousin TT's house one day and TT had a fishing pole and was fishing in their outhouse. He said TT what in the world are you doing? TT said, I dropped my coat off in there. Mel said, you're not going to wear it if you get it out are you?
TT said no but I had a samich in my pocket.

The preacher was coming to eat with them after church and Mel's mother told Mel to go down the road to their neighbor's
house and get her two chickens. She said now don't get thin ones. Mel said, Momma, I know how to do it. So he went to
the neighbor's house and picked up two nice chickens and put them in a tow-sack. On the way home he cut across the
pasture and ran in to his cousin TT. TT said, Melvin, what you got in that sack. Mel said I got me some chickens. TT said
if I guess how many you got in there, will you give one. Mel said, if you can guess how many's in here I'll give you both of them. TT said six.

These people will not be replaced. The younger generation would not understand that form of humor if they were. The
thought process has totally changed. I love characters, even the local ones but there seems to be less and less of them.

Your right.... thanks for sharing the funnys.....ole Jerry Clower was good with them too. Whats great is.... these guys didnt have to make this stuff up....it was stuff that really happened in their lives.
