Ex-KKK leader, Son and GF Fight Over “Good Beer”

This one is a dandy. What do you get when you cross an Ex-KKK leader, his redneck son, his white trash girlfriend and beer?

You get something like this:

A fight over who gets to drink the "good beer" led to the arrest of a former Ku Klux Klan leader and his son in rural east Osceola County, the Sheriff's Office said.

Troy Hixon, 45, his girlfriend, another woman and his father, George Hixon, 73, were drinking Wednesday night when Troy Hixon threw his girlfriend down and began shooting into the ground near her, a sheriff's report states.

George Hixon served time in federal prison in the late 1980s for possessing an unregistered machine gun. When drug agents searched his home at the time, they found evidence that he was a leader of the Ku Klux Klan in Osceola County, they said at the time.

Troy Hixon's girlfriend, whose name was not released, told deputies that an argument began after she complained that she was forced to drink cheap beer while the men drank "good beer" — Budweiser, according to the report. She also said someone poured beer on her while she was on the ground, and she heard a can crumple.

A Nice Motor Home?

A friend of mine and her husband recently purchased a motor home to do some touring around this past summer. Of course you can imagine what my first thought was when she told me they had bought a motor home. Especially when she told me that it was in need of some motor home repairs. I went out to see it the other day and of couse I didn't have my cell phone with me but it's actually pretty nice. It has these three cuties beat that is for sure.

Valentines Day Around the Corner

Just fair warning, as I write this out D Day is only about 17 days and 6 hours away. That should give you plenty of time to find some unique gifts for her. But then again if you are like me you will be leaving things to the last minute, going to a corner store and buying flowers and doing a fancy dinner out. Don't do what I do. It never gets me anywhere. Go out ahead of time and put some thought into what you are going to do on Valentines Day. It may score you points later on down the road. Remember, the golf courses will be opening soon enough. You know what I mean.

I thought I would update once a week or maybe more with some random barely hanging on type stories:

I am all for being cautious but is the apocalypse from 12 Monkeys? Maybe.

If both were naked when they were pulled over and the woman was released, what the hell was she wearing when they released her?

Police Use Facebook to Bust Underage Party
See, Facebook does make you stupid. Why would anybody with a brain advertise to the whole world that you are going to have a beer party when you are underage.

With a pocket knife of all things. Something big and sharp maybe but a pocket knife?

I didn't mind watching her shows when there was absolutely nothing and I mean nothing on tv. You might enjoy some of the video.
