Have you ever wondered how true Southerners live? Have you ever thought much about how they see life and how they react to the different things that happen every day to each of us? Take look at Dixie Land as few folks ever see it, as it really is! See it through the eyes of award winning Writer, Cartoonist, and Southern Humorist, W.R. Benton. Visit Bubba Lee, Maude, Nadine Lucille, Bobby Dale, Willie Eugene and the rest of the 'Possum Holler gang as they face life as Rednecks, which puts them in the mentally challenged category of life.
About the Author: Gary Benton (pen name is "W.R. Bentom") grew up in the Missouri Ozark Mountains and speaks broken Yankee, some English, and fluent Southern. Yes, his voice has a southern "twang" and he is proud of his southern heritage.
In his youth he worked as a domestic engineer (two brothers and two sisters), a pig slopper, a wild life procurement specialist (when he was hungry), a roofer (until he fell off the roof after two hours on the job), a cook (no comment), a goat milker (one cold morning), midwife to a couple of cows, a dishwasher, and finally a member of the United States military.
