My daughter Chrisiane, who lives in Reston, VA, came by yesterday and I
showed her the printouts of some of the iris humor started by Donald M. on
this list. She not only went into convulsions of laughter, but on the spot
came up with these:
You might be a redneck irisarian if the gunrack on the top of your pickup is
decorated with hand painted irises.
You might be a redneck irisarian if the deer head on your living room wall
has a plastic iris in its mouth.
You might be a redneck irisarian if your red baseball cap which used to have
only a confederate flag patch now has an iris patch too.
In the evening my son Sean, who has never shown any interest in irises,
called from his new home in Orlando FL, once again telling us why we should
move down there...this time he exclaimed: "We have Louisiana irises down
here!"
I asked, somewhat surprised: "How do YOU know they are Lousiana irises?"
His answer: "Dad, I tried my best not to know...but how could anyone living
with you NOT know? I concluded my son the doctor may turn out ok yet.
