Hello Everybody, and Good Evening
This is great moments in redneck history
One spring morning in south Georgia, in 1898
Ms. Haddie May Calhoun had just finished one of her scrumptious
peach cobblers and sat it out to cool.
But there was a big problem.
Every time she would sit the pie out to cool,
Flies would be all over it like mullets on rednecks.
This enraged Haddie May. She tried swingin her hands and her feet. Even pots and pans. But those wuick little insects were always one step ahead.
She thought and thought and then it clicked. She cut a piece of screen out of the screen door, her husband Billy Bob was supposed to fix months ago, and pasted it on a yard stick.
The whole house was insect free in just a couple of minutes.
It was a Marvelous, Marvelous invention.
You see, the flies could sense the air pressure from a solid object like a hand. Man she won that cobbler cookoff that year, but she did so much more for the entire human population....... and I thank ya Ms.Haddie May Calhoun, for the worlds first..... Fly Swatter!
And this has been another Great Moment in Redneck History!
