Austin vs. Nashville

[RiskKid.]

Mom vs Son......here we go again.....I love it!  I'm putting my money on Mom  ;D ;D

WPD, here's a dismantle to your dismantling...

1. 2 hr drive to Nashville, 2+ hr wait at airport, 2 hr flight to West Palm, 17 hrs in WP traffic. Nope not worth it, cuts into my fishing time way too much.

2. Better cook, I don't think so. That's why we went out to eat all the time we were there. Plus there's the frequent calls "Mom, how do I cook ???" by the way, is there a Chic-fil-a close to your new apt?

3. Jake is a lover not a fighter, at least with most people. I don't advise strangers to try it!

4. I'm glad you don't want to kill me, I have enough enemies. But remember, I brought you into this world and by law, I can take you out.

5. Outfish me?? I've got pics to prove mine! As for who's the boss, women have forever been letting men think they're the boss but we all know who rule the roost but I'll be more than happy to refresh your memory when I get down there as to who catches more and bigger Bass!

Interesting points. I'm rather amused at your attempts to keep up with your much quicker offspring. But to counterpoint:

1) In Florida, we have automobiles. I understand your reluctance to get in one as I understand that most transportation done in Kentucky is by horseback.

2) I can understand your thoughts about the cooking, but please note that I only call when I want to know how to properly fry something. I will not contest who is better at frying when most of the family recipes contain a mysterious ingredient known as "lard"

3) I was a stranger when I met Jake and the darn dog follows me everywhere when I happen to be in the Bluegrass.

4) Physical impossibility. Please note that your oldest offspring is 6'3", 245. I tower over you, and you're like 1,000,000,000,000 years old, so I have to be careful because you might fall over and break a hip.

5) As far as fishing goes, we'll settle this when you get down here. But I expect a full blown dissertation to the entire site on how your kid laid the smack down on you when you were here.

Yes, so many automobiles and snowbirds there's no room for Hillbillies on horses or Wildcats either! Besides, remember I rode with you to Miami, that was enough terror for me! I was as scarred as I was at 16 watching Texas Chainsaw Massacre! I'm still having nightmares....

At 6'3 and 245lb you seem to have done ok on my cooking! But I'll be sure and NOT cook anything when or if you ever visit.

Remember, I'm 47 and enjoying life, you're just a little over 17 yrs younger. If you're lucky you'll get to be old like me. Hope I live long enough to see you hit 40 or better yet, 50. But keep it up and you won't see 30!

I've just come up with the PERFECT plan...

Take lard to Florida, whoop oldest son bass fishing, take lots of pics to prove it, post them all on br but don't worry, you won't have to withstand the humiliation, cause I'm gonna put your size 14 feet in the lard then push you into the canal for the gators to snack on. Although they might turn you down you're so full of s---, I mean bull. Me and Jake will stand on the bank and take pics! IF you manage to crawl out, we'll bring you back to KY and whoop you all over again, this time it'll be on MY turf!  Bring it on!

The Country Music coming ouf of Nashville now is pathetic IMO. The only, what I consider real country music is coming mostly from Texas right now. I love Willie, Waylon, Johnny, Merle, Hank, Hank Jr., etc. Those guys sang real country music. Now a days you turn on the radio and you get to hear crap like "HonkyTonkbadonkadonk" and "She thinks my tractor is sexy" (Kenny Chesney has pec implants by the way). Guarantee you Waylon rolls over in his grave everytime crap like that is played. I won't even start on Big N Rich b/c I get R-Rated.

Amen brother, I agree with you 100% especially about Big 'n' Rich, I'll put Rascal Flatts right in there with them and all the sell outs, you know exactly who I'm talking about Kenny Chesney, Tim McGraw, Brooks 'n' Dunn, Trace Adkins, and all you other "country" singers that USED to be good.

There are still some REAL country singers in Nashville that you can hear live at Tootsies just about every night of the week, unfortunately they aren't getting record deals because of these fake (&*%^'s coming from New York and California, and all the 12 year old girls that like their music.

Give me Merle, Willie, Waylon, Christopherson and Johnny Cash, these guys are the best. Unfortunately I don't think we'll ever get to hear anything like that on the radio again.

P.S. I'm 26 years old, I listen to ALL kinds of music, and there are still VERY FEW country singers that are popular that I like, Dierks Bentley, Billy Currington, and Blake Shelton to name a few.
