I imagined that my response to someone who said, upon my announcement of relocation to an area known for a high gay population, "fine, if you don't mind living among queers" .. would be .. "better queers than rednecks (like you..)"
Then I started thinking about just how true it is, not just as neighbors... but the whole marriage debate, etc ..
...ya know, ... standard comedy bits about: same-sex marriage -vs- same-family marriage, can't procreate -vs- spittin out a yard full of welfare cases, Camaros in the yard -vs- low-voltage lighting ...
Well, it was all funnier to me about 30 minutes ago.
Now help me come up with a clever bumpersticker...

We worship an awesome God in the Blue States, and we don’t like federal agents poking around our libraries in the Red States. We coach Little League in the Blue States and have gay friends in the Red States. There are patriots who opposed the war in Iraq and patriots who supported it. We are one people, all of us pledging allegiance to the stars and stripes, all of us defending the United States of America.

During break, they would all go outside and sit on their choppers and smoke. Seriously.

You try to install a jacuzzi but end up with an above ground pool.
You consistently mistake merlot for Miller

In Memphis I had both gay men/women and rednecks as neighbors. The thing that got them all together was gardening, big competition to see who had the, uh, biggest roto-tiller...
