Native Tongue


this list of 60 Things Worth Shortening Your Life For really speaks my language. i love how most items on the list are expanded upon except for 8. Butter and 9. Drugs. no explanation necessary there.

this one is also special: 41. Fried dill pickles at Cock of the Walk in Natchez, Mississippi.

Cock of the Walk, besides having a great name, is a place i spent many quality hours eating fried catfish and hushpuppies, and drinking my sweet tea out of a tin cup as a kid. it's just over the river from a town i lived in, in LousAnne. we never knew of endangering our lives back then. and the south still lives largely in ignorance.

wish i still did sometimes. oh wait, i do!
