GOBGB: The Most Special Day of the Year!

Everybody’s got to get their licks in, don’t they?” Bubba inquired of his good friend.

The pair were perched on the edge of the bench seat in the front of ol’ Betsy, watching the low ditch line ahead.

“I’m not quite sure I know what you’re talkin’ ‘bout,” LeRoy replied questioning the direction his friend was taking the conversation.

GOBGB : An OLF this way shall come?

“Alrighty, I have a one question for ya!” exclaimed the Old Fart. Bubba and LeRoy had wandered into the Currituck Shell, only to be cornered by one of themembers of the illustrious Currituck Speaker’s Bureau.

“Where do YOU stand on the OLF?” he pressed Bubba for an answer.

“Ahhh,” LeRoy expressed.

I swear, it just ain’t gonna be the same without the Ol’ Carova Cowboy up there,” Bubba lamented.

GOBGB : Semantics

You know, I’m gettin tired of all these E cono mists up there in the Capital, trying to tell us that they are just figurin out we’re in a recession,” Bubba grumbled to his good friend.
Leroy chuckled, “sure enough, doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure that …

GOBGB : LeRoy - The Alternative Candidate

“Did you ever decide which commissioner’s seat you were gonna file for?” asked Bubba.

“I never really gave it a thought beyond our first conversation”, LeRoy answered.

LeRoy continued, “the way I understand it, if you file for one of the township seats, you have to live in that township. You can live anywhere in the county and file for what they call the ‘At Large’ seat.”

GOBGB : Trouble with a Capital ‘T’ (#23)

Hand me that open ended wrench will ya?” asked Bubba, while leaning under the hood of the old Jeep Wrangler.

LeRoy scanned the veritable smorgasbord of tools present on the expansive workbench.
