A 35 yr old Grandmother, a guy named Pancake and a moving story...
I did not make this up and truely feel for the situation.
Best unexplained quote, "...The Sheriff ran for re-election with the slogan of "More 'Dick' in 2006."

I admit it. I stole that cherry pie. 
"Jim Gaunce, an amiable great-grandfather, watched most of it unfold from his rocker in a sunny living room with windows so spotless birds frequently thud into the glass while trying to fly through."
So is this typical of Kentucky? I mean not only trailer tippin' but also this style of writing?
I've not heard this convoluted a story before even in Arkansas.
The "Comments" section is further proof that the internet is the best and worst invention ever made...

The local paper back in PA runs a column where they reprint news stories from 25, 50, and 100 years ago. The ones from 100 years ago read like that.
This add was on the newspaper web page when I read the story. The picture probably explains more than all the written words ever could.
My step-father was a Kentucky hillbilly. Interesting to get him yarning about growing up there. Even more interesting going there. The movie Deliverance was in fact a documentary.
Hey, Deliverance was set in TN and/or AL IIRC.
The Herald-Leader is probably the second largest paper in the state.
The far eastern part of the state can be "interesting," but most Kentuckians are as normal as I'd want them to be.
Other KY weirdness:
They elected a dog as mayor of the town Rabbit Hatch.
Tom Cruise.
...Chris "Pancake" Meyers told her, she said, that he had more than 13 years' experience in hauling things...
...yes, but he was referring to haulin' ass!!! Yehaaaa!!
Schadenfreude, I have spent too much time around people like these to feel bad for them.
BTW, i thaught deliverance was in Georgia
