Born in the wrong place

I was listening to a Chicago bluegrass band on Wednesday night called Special Consensus. If you get the chance to check them out, I would recommend you do. Great musicians, great music. Makes me think I should have been born in North Carolina, for the following reasons:

1) I would be able to buy clothes to fit my (delete as politically correct) burly/obese/big-boned/gargantuan frame.

2) I would be able to wear dungarees and drive a pick up, two of my life-long dreams which the narrow minded social elitists in this country frown upon.

3) I would be able to visit an all-you can eat steakhouse.

4) I could pick up the banjo and write songs about how I lost my wife/girlfriend/favourite pig but was saved by The Lord.

5) I could own several guns.

6) I could make moonshine.

7) I only need to shower every second month
