Uh...don't forget, ....Jon Reep. Senator Fred.....and of course, Jessie Helms, Jimmy Carter and his whole family. I'd like to add my second favorite southern comedian...D.J. Squalls. Hey, you need to put Andy Griffith on there too....and Jim Nabors....hey...the whole cast of Andy Griffith and don't forget the Dillards (Darlins).

My Deddy was famous once. In 1954, he was asked to be on the tv show, I've Got A Secret, for being in the paper eating a six foot two inch hot dog, special made with all the trimmings. I got the newspaper clipping to prove it. Got a picture of him on there all slim and everything. He aint skinny no more. But, he was before he ate that big hot dog.

He wasn't actually IN the paper eating the hot dog. He ate the hot dog at Ruby and John's Drive In in Rockingham NC. But, the paper wrote a story about it. Thought I should clarify that.
