Fissure Man
Welcome, to the greatest show on earth
Time to listen up, for what it's worth
Come on in and sit right down
It's time we crown a clown-a-'round
Witness how the days are all the same
Dressed up in platitudes and rage
And when our leader takes the stage
Buckle up, get ready for the change
My anger starts to flicker, flags start to bend
Raise a toast with me to everybody’s end
Step right up, the weather’s fine
I’ll turn your water into wine
The drums of war are blaring in the street
Jack boots making sure we never meet
And as the banners fall away
Your left with consequences made

Hands-Free Water in the Woods: Ultra-Light Compact Sink
One thing to be aware of when it comes to us traditional Appalachians is that we come from a long line of storytellers. It is our heritage. This means you rarely get just straight facts within any story we’re relating to you. We do use actual truth to create the overall structure for our tales, but then also weave in lots of exaggeration, superstition, fantasy, boasting, lore, and outright fabrications. This is part of the joy of it all.
This might create a situation at times where modern listeners could feel disappointed, or lied to, if finding out that certain details of a story were not completely true. (People desperately WANT to believe, for example, that Daniel Boone really did all of the legendary, impossible things that he is reported to have done. But on some level, we all know that in reality, a lot of those stories are founded on something real that happened, but then exaggerated.)
An example of me pulling this dirty trick on all of you can be seen in Ep 172 Horrifying BIGFOOT ...
