shaggy hot dog story
A West Virginia anthracite miner tripped as he entered a shop that sells cured meats. He began swearing so vociferously that the other patrons tried to calm him down with some gentle, down- home ribbing...it was a fine example of delicate teasing dealing with coal cuss.

I think that it is downright shameful that Nim provided directions on how to post on Kesslerville in a place where Hillel could see them. What were you thinking Nim? Next thing you know, two postings from Hillel. By the way, did the West Virginia guy pass Romy?
And, the more I think about it,that guy should never have been in that shop to begin with. Doesn't he know that there are laws against serving miners?
Actually, there is a great deal of controversy on that question - so I will axe the greater audience of Kesslerville - Were we shafted, ore not? Please be kind in your response, I don't want to pick a fight.
After he walked out of the old deli (If this story took place in India instead of West Virginia, he would have walked out of the New Delhi), the anthracite miner went into a bait and tackle shop. The owner asked if he wanted an earthworm, but the miner said "I'd like to buy two minnows."
[I don't get it either, but I don't know any anthracite jokes.]
Actually, Nim, what happened was that the miner went into the bait and tackle shop and saw a German couple standing there. He approached them and asked if he could be of help. They explained that there was a special on minnows, if they bought five they could get them for a very cheap price. ALAS!!!! They only had enough money to pay for three minnows, so they wondered if the miner would help them by going in with them on their purchase. The German man looked at the miner and asked him if he would be willing to do so, "Sir ve vould be very grateful if you vould buy two mit us."
I think this is getting a little out of hand, I don't think that we need any more jokes in this vein.
I can't help myself. Is the follower of a heavy metal band an Anthrax-ite?
