This Book Makes a Great Gift!



Cooter Brown offers up an unparalleled collection of over 500 examples of Hillbilly Wisdom, Redneck Observations and Good Ol' Boy logic in "South Mouth". lt's a very funny -- and often insightful -- book.

In the tradition of rural America (especially the South), we welcome you to come in, sit a spell and sample some of the unique ways we express ourselves. You'll get a heapin' helping of "South Mouth"

If things aren't going well: "I'm as bad off as a rubber-nosed woodpecker in a petrified forest."

If a co-worker is lazy: "They call him "blister" because he doesn't show up until the work is done."

If the temperature is falling outside: "It's gonna be colder than a cast iron commode on the shady side of an iceberg."

If a job is frustrating: "It's like trying to nail Jell-O to a tree."

If you' re ready for dinner: "I' m so hungry I could eat a stink bug off a dead skunk."

If someone is less than attractive: "If I had a dog as ugly as him, I' d shave its butt and make it walk backwards."

If your wallet is empty: "If a trip around the world cost a dollar, I couldn't get to the state line."

If you' re describing a winding road: "The road was so crooked you could see your own tail lights."

If someone is acting less than intelligent: "He' s a seven story buildin' with a five story elevator."

Who knows, maybe you'll end up spicing up your conversation with some of colorful language and become a "South Mouth" yourself. Or maybe not. Either way, take it from Cooter Brown, "You'll have a good ol' time."

Descrizione prodotto

L'autore

Cooter Brown is the stranger you sit next to in a bar and walk away 2 hours later with a new best friend. He’s the kind of guy you want to be at every party (but you don’t necessarily want to be responsible for him being there). Cooter is married with a couple of kids, a couple of dogs, a couple of grills, a smoker, a Harley, an extra fridge in the garage (just for beer) and a truck that can do pretty well off-road. “Heck,” says Cooter, “if things get any better, I may have to hire someone to help me enjoy it.” You can reach Cooter through his website: www.TheRealCooterBrown.com, you can friend him on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/cooter.brown.5070; and you can follow him on Twitter: @SouthMouthBook

I was poking around looking for some light reading when I saw this title. I read the opening and figured I'd just go through the book a bit at a time, grinning and chuckling. I ended up reading the entire thing in one sitting. I was as entertained "as a robin pullin' up worms on a rainy spring mornin'."

Okay, I'm no southerner. I don't have the ear or the chutzpah to pull it off. I'm originally from Massachusetts, probably known best for phrases like "pahrk the cahr" and "you can't get there from here." Frankly, Cooter's colorful similes and corrosive humor leave us northerners in the dust.

This book is a catalog of quips and truisms that, while entertaining, are somehow evocative of a simpler, but no less competitive, lifestyle--rural, isolated, not influenced by popular media. It's a whole new vocabulary. I recommend you spend a little time pulling out 5 or 10 favorites and working them into your conversations. Give 'em a try. Even if you're "busier than a cat in a litter box," take a little time to add some spice to your discussions and you may suddenly find yourself the "big frog in the pond." If someone "licks all the red off your candy," you'll have a ready comeback to put him or her back in place. That'll probably make you "happier than a pig in mud."

My sister and her husband are retiring to Tennessee, and my son and his family live in Alabama. We have friends in Florida and North Carolina. Understanding the southern mindset as documented here by Cooter Brown becomes a rosetta stone of the cultural context. It has real value to me and my wife. The next time we make a frenetic visit to see family or friends in the south, we won't just be "burnin' daylight."

Oh, I almost forget to mention, make sure you go on through to the end. Cooter is giving away an ebook of his favorite southern barbecue recipes totally free. I may be a Yankee, but I know good eatin' when I taste it. You'll definitely want to grab that, too, while the price is right.

This book is a must for all those outside the USA who seek to understand more fully the south of the country.
A wonderful compendium of old time southern lexicon, some of which rarely leaves American shores.
An intimate view of the southern USA culture with all its quirks and attitude.
Apart from that it is simply the kind of fun that tickles your funny bone and makes your face ache from laughing.
Well done Cooter, old chap!

This book is a fun read and goes a long ways in explaining the world around us. For example how many faces (people you work with, customer service rep's, etc.) does the following statement bring to mind:

"If he was any dumber, he'd have to be watered twice a week."

I will re-read this book and look forward to more from this author.

If you are looking for something a wee bit different then this is it. Admittedly what happens across the pond doesn't always match up with us over here, but inside you will find some real gems. I like it, inside you will find more than a few chuckles, and there are most definitely some lines that I very much look forward to trying out :) It's fun to read and I recommend it.

Language is both beautiful and "strange" in every culture, race, country, and even age. One can express one's feelings in so many ways, and this book - South Mouth - Hillbilly Wisdom is an excellent glimpse into the way the Southerners "speak". My favorite is: "You're just blindin' me with your sunshine!".
