Any of you fans of Lewis ? I thinki he was the most humorous man around .

What was your favorite book of his ?

I liked ," Don't Sit Under The Grits Tree With Anyone Else But Me "

" Elvis is Dead And I don't feel Too Good Myself ".

Thank you for reminding me I really need to check some of his books out of the library. I used to enjoy his columns in the Atlanta Journal Constitution. I saw him at his one man show Grizzard On Tour at the Kennedy Center in Washington DC. And during that show, the Atlanta Braves were in the World Series I believe, or at least a very important series, and Lewis gave updates of the score several times during the show

During that show I was educated as to the difference between the words "Naked" and "Nekkid". "Naked means you don't have any clothes on". "Nekkid means you don't have any clothes on and you're up to somethin'"
