a cowboy a redneck and a polack are standingwaiting in a grocery cashier line behind a Mexican

      sounds like the beginning of a joke doesnt it

the redneck points back to the cowboys waxed carton of organic milk on the conveyer belt
                                                                                               Organic, what’s that about?

There's no antibiotics in it, cows can’t be treated with 'em, trouble today is that we’re ingesting ‘em all the time, which isn’t good, we become immune, our health’s impaired.

polack in the lead nods
                         Got that right brother  And its delicious

redneck says When I was a kid milk came in a gallon glass container, yacould see the cream at the top, my mother used to pour it off for her and the old man's coffee.

Likewise said the polack

As a matter of fact my mom, frying bacon, would pour off the grease and save it to make pancakes, used it in all sorts of meals.

As my mother did an I still do Great to wilt mixup in dandelion greens unopened buds

We didn’t have Kleenex either, we, brothers and sisters, had handkerchiefs to blow our noses in.

polack went into his back pockets showed them the two he carried
                                                                       Hey man careful Dating yourself

cowboy asked where they grew upsounded like they grew up in similar surroundings he offered he was local  fifth generation
            redneck polack noddedhmmed  polack  Fifth generation  redneck  Homegrown.

Ever been out of California asked the polack

Why?

Only other fifth generation Ive ever met was in Montana Theyd never been out of Montana

No.

redneck offered he was raised Central Valley Wasco north northwest of Bakersfield

polack said Humboldt Park Chicago
                                      Queer though directing his remark to the redneck an urban polack would have so much in common with a redneck then directing his remark to the cowboy You Glass gallons of milk bacon fat offal  organmeats

shook his head said no

to the redneck Organs Liver kidneys heart tongue  Oxtail

Yup.

Mexican interrupted Me too, hombre.

polack turned forward to the Mexican I knew that Our diets are crazy similar

Migrants? I understand Polish were hired by Germans seasonally to pick their crops.

Correct My grandmothers did as a little girl before she came to America Im second generation American

Me too. said the Mexican

Fifth generation cowboy said the polack  Sounds like a claim to fame Kids

Kids and grandkids.

Crazy 
        Americas a melting pot
