Buttermilk Revisited

Here are a couple of quotes dished up from the table of master storytellers.

"As a sideline Abbey kept a heard of a couple dozen shoats penned back of the mill where the apple pulp was dumped. Shoats, being hogs, stuffed themselves with pulp. The pulp, loaded with sugar, fermented and turned into alcohol and the pigs into drunken swine. Their antics were fully as amusing as those of their human counterparts in a similar state."

"A lot can be said for coon hunting - it gets both hunters and huntees out in the fresh air; it is contemplative .... It is character-building (few activities offer the opportunity to associate with a wider variety of characters then coon hunting); and it is infrequently fatal to either party."
