Here in NE Tennessee we had this old codger named Cas Walker. He was a local grocery store mogul, & he was about as backwoods as they came. He sponsored this one locally-produced gospel show, Mull's Singing Convention, starring the Right Reverend J. Bazzle (Basil) & Miz Mull. J. Bazzle looked & sounded like a toad frog, while Lady Mull-his wife, sported a beehive that would make Marge Simpson green w/envy. Anyhow, they shilled for Cas almost as much as they did for Jay-Zus. Once, Cas was hawking special prices he'd gotten on Walnuts. J. Bazzle chimed in, went on & on about 'em, finally asking his wife-whose somnolent expression rarely changed-"Miz Mull, does Cas Walker have the biggest nuts in town ?!?" "Yass, J. Bazzle, I b'lieve he does..." Went COMPLETELY over their heads. Local TV in Flyover Country-Gotta love it ! (grin)-Unca Sandy
