One final bit from Alabama! :)

I got this E-mail from one of the nieces in Alabama!

Archaeology find

After having dug to a depth of 10 feet last year, New York scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 100 years and came to the conclusion, that their ancestors already had a telephone network more than 100 years ago.

Not to be outdone by the New Yorkers, in the weeks that followed, in California an archaeologist dug to a depth of 20 feet, and shortly after, headlines in the LA Times newspaper read: ' "California archaeologists have found traces of 200 year old copper wire and have concluded that their ancestors already had an advanced high-tech communications network a hundred years earlier than the New Yorkers."

One week later, ' The Montgomery Advertiser, a local newspaper in Alabama, reported the following:
"After digging as deep as 300 feet in his pasture near Pine Level, Autauga County Alabama, Bubba Mitchell, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely nothing. Bubba has therefore concluded that 300 years ago, Alabama had already gone wireless."

Thank God for Bubba. Who said Alabamians were hicks?

(To those of you who are from Alabama: Please don't be offended. I am also from Alabama and an Alabamian sent this to me.)
