WANTED! GHS yearbooks Wondering what to do with those GHS yearbooks lying around gathering dust? We would like to have one for each year, if possible. Excerpts will be shared on this site for all to enjoy.
Over at Herb Padgett's place, on the second Tuesday of the month, you can use the word "linthead" without puzzling or offending anybody.
Some people, who may have been lintheads or who have relatives who are lintheads, may take offense at the word, the way some Southerners do when you imply that they're rednecks.
I proudly claim the right to be called linthead and redneck. I've labored in the fields during the blistering heat of a Carolina summer when my most visible reward was a sunburned neck. And I've labored in the cotton mill when lint filled the air like snowflakes during a New England blizzard and remained in my hair even after several combings.
I didn't have to explain that to the guys who gathered at Herb's place, way out in the country off Rainbow Falls Road, which connects my old hometown of Graniteville, S.C., with U.S. 25 a few miles east of Augusta, Ga.
