Sorry guys, I've been using the word hillbilly pretty liberally on here. The "hillbillys" in our area are also known as "white trash" or "trailer trash". They have 20 dogs in the front yard, garbage everywhere, cars everywhere, husband unemployed and drinking Pabst Blue Ribbon, wife pregnant and smoking palm malls, so many kids that they don't know who half of them are. And their house is on wheels. They like to use your property as a short cut to their house and have no consideration of their neighbor's things.
Today's hillbillys are decendants of the romanticised "mountain people". But with the invention of liquor stores, TV, lawn chairs, and mobile homes, the days of the REAL hillbilly are gone.
Also instead of making moonshine, they've discovered that making methanphetimines is more profitable. Even better yet, they've discovered that using meth is even more fun!
That's my defination of hillbillys today. :-)
