My God! Western Sussex County from the MD line to Kent is a festering hell hole. (If the parts visible from Rt 13 are representative.)
The place must be governed by a bunch of drunken, inbred losers.

Oh joy. I guess it is time to close that Delaware Liberal Western Sussex Outreach Office. LOL.

And we were this close to a deal on your SCCOR membership too!

I realize now that I just insulted festering hell holes by comparing western SC to them.

So which part of Western Sussex upset you? Was it the unending string of fast food joints, cheap Chinese carryouts, and used car dealerships? Or all of the liquor stores?

uh, you are just learing this now? Spend some time in Laurel. The director of Deliverance was there and thought “We could never make a movie about this place, it’d be too scary.”

Yeah!
Ridicule if you wish but when I arrived in DE the ‘back way’ between Wilmington to Newark to party was up thru Pike Creek which was mostly undeveloped at the time.
If Kent Co. politicos/developers are anything like NCCo. in 20 years you will hardly recognize it.
Buy now!

That’s funny, because when I drive up through New Castle County, I love to look at the endless dirty concrete, run down strip malls, and endless congested traffic.

Hey – I am considered Western Sussex even though – I am an emotional Eastern Sussex Countian. but Lincoln is still considered Western Sussex and – unfortunately – I am in the 19th Senatorial District and 35th Representative District (yeah..Dave Wilson and WhoeverWillWinTheSpecialElections). I do have to admit, I wasn’t born here – so I suppose that answers the inbred question. I did lose my front teeth in an accident when I was 13 – but at least I filled in the gap with over 15K worth of gold and porcelain.
Hell Hole? What would you make think that? I mean – common – you have to appreciate my across-the-street-neighbor that introduced himself to us by offering to turn out son into a redneck if we let him play with his kids.
And, had you been at the elections for the 19th district senate seat for the Dems – you might just have been surprised by the guts some committee members showed by closing the doors on the State Party Chair and the Media – I honestly didn’t think they had that within them.

So glad you noticed. Whenever I have to journey farther west than Georgetown I begin to hear “Dueling Banjos”…

what’s the matter? not enough pictures in your copy of “How To Win Friends And Influence People”?

This post from a guy who visits Clayton ‘purt near every week, where the professional aspiration of plucking chickens has been replaced by doting parents hoping that some day, their son, too may climb to the height of ‘door greeter’ at Wal-Mart. It has been rumored amongst the petit bourgeois of those west of Odessa that good teeth (or, like the Army, “a few good teeth”) are crucial to employment at damn-near minimum wage in Mr. Walton’s empire of cheap electronics, therefore, it has become a Kentonian custom of keeping the Copenhagen chaw as far back in the mouth as possible.
