this thread caught my eye. Y'all are funny
Haven't y'all heard of Ruppies?? those are Redneck neck urban professionals.Folks who have moved up to 'desk' jobs instead of blue collar work !! That is what my hubby says he is...LOL
True to his humble beginnings, yet he can clean up purty good!!
You can stick almost any letter in front of _uppy and get yourself a grouping of folks.
Like Puppies are the pretentious spoiled children of Yuppies, HAHA......

He is the Jimmy Carter of the Republican Party, afterall (or even worse, since Carter just sank the economy without the botched wars and body count).
