Dan-

I was just curious how the great state of Georgia feels about its most notable resident?

Honey Boo Boo

Of Toddlers and Tiaras fame, Dan. Here's a youtube link to her new TLC show. Note: they've got all sorts of characteristic Georgian pursuits: hollarin', mud wallerin' and the like. Looks really interesting.

I've never heard of Honey Boo Boo, so I better let somebody else reply. Perhaps RevRick, TopOfEverest, or Miller41 can shed some light on the subject?

P.S. This reminds me of the first time Miller mentioned Lady Ga Ga. I had no idea what he was talking about. Living without television is a great blessing.

I'm proud to announce that I haven't-not once-seen 'Jersey Shore'. I found myself in a similar ignorant (thank goodness) situation about Snooki and "The Situation" a couple years back. Thankfully, their popularity now is waning and I can go about ignoring them with aplomb.

Oh, Dan:

I plugged your name: Canoe Rebel (first / last) into Honey Boo Boo's 'nickname generator' on her facebook page. According to Honey Boo Boo, your nickname is Creampuff Runway.

I kind of like it. Creampuff. [:D]

Last week one of the forumites suggested I am anti Bill O'Reilley because I made a comment critical of O'Reilley's book on the Lincoln assassination. I replied that I can't be anti O'Reilley because I've never seen him. Ever. I likewise haven't seen Anderson Cooper, Chris Matthews, or essentially any other personality tied to television.

A couple of my employees were talking about Honey Boo Boo last week... hadn't a clue who it was... Googled it..watched a few minutes of it on Youtube...our world is doomed.

It seems like anything/one can get a reality tv show this day in age.

Every major battle would be digitally recreated by the Battle 360/Patton 360 team.

My wife (no honestly it was her that turned it on) watched one episode of the Honey Boo Boo show last week.  I found it amusing that the producers felt that the entire family had to be subtitled (in english while speaking "english") to be understood.

Yes, I noticed that.. you can't understand a word they say.

So Georgia is America's "Bavarian Forest"?

Could Honey Boo be the love child of Cap Mandrake and Stalker Girl?

No more like America's Australia. It started as a penal colony , and has been famous for it's ability to be....well, let's say "cantakerous". [:D] It not only seceeded from the USA in the civil war , it very nearly seceeded from the CSA! [:D]

I personally belive that Georgia's most famous "resident's" are actually fictious. Scarlett O'Hare from "Gone with the Wind", and Dr. Lenard MC Coy of "Star Trek". [:D]
