Found this definition on a political blog this morning:

... the "deep south" of Ohio, defined as the area where dirt tracks rule and NASCAR is for sissies.

Dick. ;-)

Thanks, Dick from southern Ohio. Hope to see you again this year at the Chili Bowl.

Let's hear it for a buckeye with sense!!:applaud: They grow them a little strange in southern Ohio. I served in the USN with a guy named John from Ironton, OH. When I asked him where that was in Ohio, he said it was near Dog Fork. No kidding. Dog Fork!! :rolling

I worked a car show a couple years ago in Lucasville, Ohio, just a ways up the road from Portsmouth. Lots of necks various shades of crimson down that way, but after the sun went down the place made Mardi Gras look tame. Something I'll never forget, to be sure.

I will be there. And, I'll be at the Hall of Fame lunch cheering as my friend Dave Humphrey becomes the first NEMA racer to be inducted.

BTW, your friend at the bar is well-read. “When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross.” has been attributed to Sinclair Lewis, whose 1935 novel, It Can't Happen Here, dealt with the rise of a right-wing dictatorship in America. It is thought to be a paraphrase of "When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the American flag," attributed to Huey Long, radical populist governor of Louisiana (1928-30) and bombastic U.S. Senator (1930-33), assassinated in office.
