Lets just say that a good friend had a grandmother that kept us from starving when we were irresonsible starving surfers in south carolina. As a picky eater, I learned "right quick" that country dinner was something you did not turn down. I also learned that it tasted damn good!

"Ohh boys, you just threw away the best part of the Turkey, now how do you suppose you gonna fix that gravey without them jiblets"
