That fellah from _King of the Hill_, is it _BOOMhauer_ or _BROOMhauer_? There’s a fellah in my office that we’ve nicknamed after the character, but we can’t remember. . . Tripler Causetheguytalksrealfasthe’sfromtheSouthandsoundsjustlikethecharacter. ---

I love KOTH. Don’t watch it more anymore, but when we lived in Nashville, we’d always watch it and say, “yes! that’s the south!” Weird stuff. ---

I just got back from lunch with Boomhauer, and he mentioned “grits”. . . I had to ask, “Just what the hell is a grit?” I got this entire soliloquy constisting of 17 “y’alls”, 22 “reckons”, a smattering of “doggones”, and one “poop on a stick”. I’d type out what he said, but I didn’t get 95% of it, and I’d crash the server with one sentence. . .
