Yes, I realize that the name that was uttered was “Richard Dix”. I was pointing out that the joke beneath the joke is that his first name is frequently shortened to Dick, hence Dick Dix.

Let me tell you something else. I’ve seen a lot of dead guys, Dude, and this guy is a fake. A f\*\*\*\*\*\* goldbricker.

Reminds me of a personal incident…

Was paddling up a to a spring in the middle of nowhere here in the Deep South. Of course the spring is run amok with drunk red necks in bass boats. As I approach I find a full unopened beer floating away from the spring downstream.

I pick it up and holler “Is this anyone’s beer?”

Of course some drunk assed red neck hollers back “Yeah, that’s mine, throw it to me!”

Me “Dude, my aim sucks!”

DAR “Just throw it!”

Me “Okay”

Of course I miss.

But guess what I hit and knock into the water?

The drunk assed rednecks beer he had just opened and set down on the bow of the bass boat to catch the beer I was throwing him.

Hey, I warned the DUDE…
