Shit About Small Towns

Bringing all the happenings on a small scale. No, we won't be talking about diplomacy nor foreign affairs, unless it involves "that one French broad Joe and Dave were fighting about."

John Cougar Mellencamp and Drive-ins

Sometimes I listen to John Cougar Mellencamp (yeah, I left Cougar in) sing about small towns, and I get a hankering for drive-in burger joints. No, not like a Sonic. A real old one like you see in the movies where I can take my girlfriend and run into random people we know. They’ll tell us about some party out in an orchard and when we get there there’ll be a large bonfire where I can just back up my truck and sit on the tailgate. And when I need to piss, I’ll just whip it out and the girls will hoot and holler because I’m packing some heat. My girlfriend will get all jealous and talk about how I’m just showing off and I’ll just say, “Hey, Diane, let’s run off behind a shady tree, dribble off those Bobbie Brooks, let me do as I please.” And she’ll slap me because her name’s Cindy and her hot little sister is Diane.
