It is very fitting that you are number 3000. I don't know if you noticed or not, but with TW344's recent new membership, we now have our second member who lives in West Virginia - all good stuff
I did not notice now I have three cousins. Fungo (1st cousin), wvmtner (2nd cousin), and now TW344 (3rd cousin). I am one lucky man. Finding his long lost cousins. There aren't very many of us, but we can sure stir it up with the best of em.

Are any of them "twice removed"? Are they from your Momma's or Daddy's side?
(sorry luv....I couldn't resist!)

JT - I know I made it a point to say that wasn't a scolding
My basic feeling is that West Virginia gets a lot of these jokes unfairly because of that one famous movie. I can find people like that in any state in the nation. Now if someone from WV wants to crack on themselves, well maybe that is a different situation
But, you will be hard pressed to find folks anywhere in america that will give you their last dollar, do whatever they can to help, or leave you alone if you do not want to be bothered.
I love this state and I love the people.
So when I am cracking on WV, never take it personal because I don't

Excellent and quite profound when you think about it. Someone who will give you their last dollar is truly RICH in spirit imho and will find a special place in heaven some day.
I don't take things personally but am always on guard for those that may not yet have the courage to post or become a member just yet.

Very nicely said Orioles....besides....if we are going to pick on a state....I nominate New Jersey! J/K Please don't start yelling at me!
I think this is where I need to insert Bee's "signature" about having a sense of humor!

I just hate that WVU and VA Tech won't be playing each other in football, anymore. A local radio station always held the "Official WV Joke Contest" every year before the big game. I shall refrain from those out of respect for our HSBBW brethren.
And CD, I hold no grudges from the tongue lashing.
