Very funny!!! Thanks for sharing it. Up here in the mountains, we actually have a near equivalent - a toilet throwing contest at the County Fair.

Some people get very creative with toilet seats. Near the University of Maryland a resident placed his disabled toilet seat in his front yard and planted a garden in the seat.

Someone told me that he is an artist and that this is his conception of the architectural practice of placing a "turd in the courtyard".

"A game of Redneck Horseshoes!"

It's funny to me how slang word use changes just like standard english words do. A 'redneck' used to mean someone whose neck got red in their line of work; as in a farmer, a tradesman or a manual labor whose neck was exposed to the sun while they worked. It was the 'common-man' that nearly everyone could identify with. Now, its a derogatory slang word for many, demeaning for some, and bucketfulls of pride for others -- none of whom qualify as a real redneck!
