Lake of the Ozarks
I am not at my computer right now.
I am in Missouri.
If everything has gone right, I am sitting on a boat in the middle of a lake, enjoying 90-degree weather and avoiding Missouri-bred idiots.
If I am lucky, I will have caught a large fish.
Realistically, I will catch some weeds and possibly an old shoe.

Wow. Old shoe, huh?
I’ve caught a few of those myself.
If it’s a size 12 shoe bring it home for me. I need a shoe.
Boy sometime I’ll tell ya’ll about the shoe that got away. It was 30 lbs. if it was 5 I tell ya. Biggest damn shoe ever. Man it put up a fight but it broke the lace in the end. I hooked it through the tongue and eye but still no good.
Where’s my corn cob pipe?
Mmmm.. fish.
Hey!
I am from Missouri (the KC area) and while I will agree that there are some real Deliverance folks here (just look at my neighbors, I expect to read about them here some day), we are not all that bad, nor are idiots confined to Missouri.
No, I can’t honestly say that everyone in Missouri was a Deliverance-type person.
Lake of the Ozarks wasn’t so bad, but I can see how the fringes of civilization down there can get…interesting.

I’ve lived in Missouri almost all my life and it’s such a bummer that everyone assumes we’re morons put on earth to amuse them at Branson/Lake of the Ozarks.
There are idiots everywhere, not just in more rural states.
