Sometimes you need a Big Mule

The South Alabamian News Podcast ·

2024/12/03

Our legendary governor of the 1940s and 1950s was the giant, cartoonish character James E. “Big Jim” Folsom. Ole Big Jim ran against the big businesses of Birmingham — big banks, utilities and U.S. Steel — and labeled them the “Big Mules.” He campaigned on the back of a flatbed truck in every hamlet in the state. He would dance and sing with his band, the Strawberry Pickers, and rail against the Big Mules of Birmingham and the Big Planters of the Black Belt. George Wallace came onto the scene...

Alabama doesn't do things halfway

2024/11/06

Alabama is a one-party, ruby red Republican state. This is a given in both state and national political races — especially presidentially, as you saw earlier this week. The proof is in the pudding. With Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s triumphant conquest of our state on Tuesday, that makes 12 straight presidential races in which the GOP candidate has carried our state. Trump has carried Alabama by more than 60% in the last three presidential cycles — 2016, 2020 and now 2024. Pr...

Making a bargain with a sneaky wife

The South Alabamian News Podcast ·

2024/11/06

My wife recently gave me an unusual gift for our anniversary: a bag hammock. Why she thought an old guy like me needed one of these, I’m not sure. I think it’s another one of her plans to keep me out of the house as much as possible. A bag hammock is quite popular with campers. It isn’t one of those giant numbers that fits on a metal frame; instead, it’s thin, strong material that is stuffed in a tiny bag along with two nylon ropes which attach to a couple of trees. This means that I will nee...

Ever listened to two people or two groups argue? Both opponents believe there is only one real truth – MINE!! It doesn’t matter how loudly the other side yells. It doesn’t make a difference how many facts the other side lays out and cites triumphantly. These volunteer advocates for living with sky high blood pressure scoff at anything that doesn’t back up what they know to be “the absolute truth, so help me God.” You’ve seen it happen, or probably been part of it at some point. Sure you have,...
