Gotta give the Pennsylvania guys some props. During the whole confederate flag flare up, the media was very careful to NEVER mention that a lot of blacks in the south fly the battle flag. Not an uncommon sight in lower al, ga, and fl panhandle.
Driving down 83, I just stopped at a Wal-Mart to piss. Black dude with a big ole battle flag on a poll set in the bed of his truck and wearing a battle flag hat. That dude has got to be exploding Yankee heads wherever he goes. |

I've been doing some thinking: A few years ago Somebody got themselves a R/C F16 and put a camera inside its cockpit. I do believe it would be interesting to take such an aircraft and fly it from the Frackville Mall to Shenandoah and Pottsville - separate flights of course - if the plane can receive the signals from the distances. |

I haven't been over that way for a couple of years, but I always thought the area around there had some great scenery. I agree, a video of an F-16 making a run around there would be pretty damn cool if one could do it. |

red up the cowch Washington near Pittsburgh
1. WashingtonPopulation: 13,720 Gun stores per capita: 2nd in PA Waffle House rank: 33rd in Pennsylvania High school graduation rate: 77% Walmart rank: 36th Dern tootin’, Washington! You have the official bragging rights as being named the most redneck city in the entire state of PA. You may now brag to your friends and share this endlessly on your Facebook walls. Lets see why. The Washington area has the 2nd most places you can buy guns in the entire state. There’s nothing rednecks like to do more than shoot things and blow stuff up. Except mudding. You’ve got two Waffle Houses here, and a Walmart, of course. Every redneck town has to have a Walmart, right? Where else are you gonna get your cheap bait while the wifey picks out an outfit for the big barbecue? There’s also a Field & Stream superstore and a Gander Mountain, for those classier rednecks with paychecks. Washington has a population that’s 81% white, and very blue collar. More than 20% of the folks here didn’t graduate high school. They were most likely too busy with other more important matters. Like mudding. |

This analysis is very flawed, No Berwick, Renova, Shoeshoe, Noxen, ect...... Lancaster, Warren and Lewistown are downright cosmopolitan and filled with dazzling urbanites compared to about 20 towns I could rattle off the top of my head around here. They must have looked at spreadsheets to do this instead of actually visiting anywhere that's really rural in the state. I can guarantee they never got into a good brawl at the Pantall Hotel or The Well, had a venison burger at the Hallton Hilton, wings at The Hitchin' Post or Dewdrop Inn, wheeled a keg in to watch the strippers at the Rhododendron, or gazed in wonder at paint-scheme on the outside of The Camouflage Inn which is the very definition of "truth in advertising." |

While the floor for them is 2,500 which is bigger than any town in the county I live in except for two. |
