TIPS FROM THE REDNECK BOOK OF MANNERS***IN GENERAL***
1. Never take a beer to a job interview.
2. Always identify people in your yard before
shooting at them.
3. It's considered poor taste to take a cooler to
church.
4. If you have to vacuum the bed, it is time to
change the sheets.

hold it with your fingers covering the label.

anything prepared by a taxidermist.
2. Do not allow the dog to eat at the table no
matter how good his manners are.
***PERSONAL HYGIENE ***

is a job that should be done in private using one's OWN truck keys.
2. Proper use of toiletries can forestall bathing
for several days.However, if you live alone, deodorant is a
waste of good money.

especially on the first date.
