A Recent Conversation With My Awesome Redneck Brother

Just before Christmas I was outside Knoxville at Smokey Mountain Knifeworks... the knife store capital of the world... the size of 2 Outdoor World's in 1. This place has every kind of knife you could possibly imagine, and any sort of redneck/rebel flag accessories you would wish for. I saw some potential Christmas gifts for Benjamin and my step dad Charles... some Dale Earnhardt knives and Dodge truck knives. Well, I knew Charles was Dale fan, but I couldn't remember if Benjamin was or not, so I called him.

"Hello?", says Benjamin.

"Question; Do you like Dale Earnhardt?", I ask.

"Well, I don't really root for him.", says Benjamin.

"No, not Jr., Dale Sr.", I say.

"Oh, well, I never really rooted for him then, but I do like him...", says Benjamin.

"Do you like Dodge?", I ask.

"Well, I do drive a Dodge truck. Why are you askin' me weird questions?", replies Benjamin.

"Would you rather have a Dale Earnhardt knife or a Dodge truck knife?", I ask.

"Oh, a Dale Earnhardt knife.", says Benjamin.
