Am I an elitist?

What do you think?

1. I talk like a West Virginian. It’s the rest of the country that doesn’t talk normally.

2. This strategy completely works. I’m living proof: the dumber I sound the better I am at managing my ED.  (Sarcasm, people, sarcasm)

3. Raw flesh? Not so much. (And I don’t think that is an ED-thing, either.)

4. Been to WF, but much prefer the veggies straight out of Bev’s garden.

5. I am proud to say that for the first time in my life I do not own any furniture that is older than I am! (Family antiques not withstanding.)

6. It’s in the closet, not the dresser. (KIDDING! KIDDING!)

7. Of course I don’t know what it is! And even if I did, I’d never admit to it. My mother reads this blog for goodness sakes!

8. Not only do I know what “venerable” means, I also know the Latin root. And I can use it in a sentence. In either language.

9. Xanax has been my  inebriant of choice recently.

10. Wrong again. It’s a black bear here.

11. The most “real American” I know is Barry. He’s a hard working, deer hunting, maple syrup making, car fixing farmer. With a ponytail. Who think pot should be legalized. And that the oil industry should be nationalized.

12. I prefer not to think of any part of Karl Rove, least of all his toe-cheese.

13. Our hammers gave me a new foundation and a new roof and a new bathroom. We’re working on the kitchen right now.

14. Early exposure to sacramental wine has lead to my proclivity for really cheap, sweet, Virginia red wine. I still have not forgiven the church for eternally destroying my palate.

15. I don’t really “speak” Latin. Not very many people do outside of the Vatican.

16. Read? Who? Me? As if.

17. Dynamic equilibrium? What’s that? Doesn’t that have something to do with Gould? Oh – that was punctuated equilibrium, wasn’t it? Close enough.

18. Earnhardt? Heck no! I’m for #8. And we’ve even been to Martinsville.

There you have it, readers. I’ll leave the verdict up to you? Am I an elitist? :)
