I saw that you mentioned Jessco in another post. So, being from WV, have you ever met Jessco? If so, what is he like in real life?

the funny thing is, i'd never heard of jessco until stephaniew mentioned him to me. from what i've heard i would assume that he's like many of the people in southern west virginia, where coal is the name of the game. wasn't he from boone county? if so, i've served his type at burger king. it's always funny to get real hillbillies in a mall. they tend to stick out.

i must point out that i'm from a more densely populated part of dub-v (represent).

Jesco White is an awesome, awesome man from Boone County, WV. He is a "mountain dancer" of sorts. smile.gif

Yes, he was on a PBS program called Dancing Outlaw. I still have to tape it for a few people. JC, were you one of them? I know that blightman was, too.

AAAH MUTHASNAP!!! The movie was semi-lame and not that scary but the special that I saw on FX (after Most Shocking UFO Evidence 2) FREAKED ME OUT! The burning of cows, the thing about chasing menstruating women, the red eyes, the sheer TERROR. It freaks me out! The whole thing about how the Mothman terrorized the city for 13th month and the 13th bold was what caused the bridge to collapse...shudder...

But Most Shocking UFO Evidence takes the cake for scariest thing ever to me. The footage of an alien being interrogated by the government and then it goes into a coughing fit and has to be rushed out by doctors...that freaks me out even more. I may be a wimp for finding these things scary but... unsure.gif I never want to be abducted by aliens...
