Publisher's summary

The Gatesville General Store

The Gathering Place for a Gaggle of Irreverent, Misguided, and Otherwise Cheesy Geezers.

Do you recognize uniquely hillbilly shinola when you hear it? Does your mouth go off long before your brain fully engages? Do you easily get exquisitely simple things bollixed up beyond reasonable repair? Are you a veritable storehouse of meaningless and insignificant information?

If so, you’ll feel right at home with the retired redneck geezers who regularly gather around the wood stove at the Gatesville General Store. Set in the hills of southern Indiana, the store is the old boys’ high church for general tomfoolery and otherwise misguided prattle, and their beloved heater is their altar. And there isn’t anything they can’t confuse.

Follow along with the old Hoosier buzzards as one of them narrowly evades a kiss-the-pig experience in Civitas Porcus, they woefully reorient the Easter season in The Perils of Lent, a few of them introduce new hunting strategies in Beer Camp, they gleefully run roughshod over each other’s favorite collegiate fight songs in Fighting and Singing, and, in Great Expectorations, they take on the utility of an ornamental spittoon.

By the time you finish all twenty-five stories, you’ll either be howling for more or, quite possibly, properly and genuinely worrying about your own journey toward old age!

A great series of stories. Absolutely worth the time to listen.

If you are looking for a funny series of stories, this is the one. At times laugh out loud funny. Whether you listen to one chapter on a quick errand in town or multiple chapters on a longer trip the book just works. You’ll likely realize that you know people who are just like one or more of the old guys. They are classic reprobates!
