Hillbilly Mom Gets Even




Hillbilly Mom Earns An Honorable Mention In HumorPress.com's "America's Funniest Humor!" Writing Contest



Hillbilly Mom, a basement writer sequestered deep below Hillmomba, earned an Honorable Mention in the most recent "America's Funniest Humor!" Writing Contest held by HumorPress.com.

For her accomplishment, Hillbilly Mom has earned publication in HumorPress.com's online humor showcase. Her entry, "Grinding the Axe," is about her simple request for one specific Christmas gift, and her family's total disregard for her wish.

"Grinding the Axe" will be featured in the current showcase through mid-February, after which new results from the bi-monthly contest will be posted.

Other writing awards and recognitions earned by Hillbilly Mom include absolutely nothing. Nada. Zilch. She is a one-trick pony, that Hillbilly Mom.

HumorPress.com is one of the Internet's highest-ranking humor contest sites, with opportunities for writers specializing in humor and those with real-life humorous anecdotes to share. Or, in the case of Hillbilly Mom, a place to let out the crazy without attracting undue attention from law enforcement or mental health professionals.

Well, hello there, stranger! That was really funny (as usual). Long time, no comment. Hope you're doing well. Happy New Year to you and yours.

Linda, Linda, Linda!
I was just thinking of you last night as I read through some of my old, old posts. Not that you're old or anything. Are you blogging again? You seem to have dropped off the face of Hillmomba!

You are funny! Take it from someone who once received 40lbs of cow manure as a Mothers Day gift... no matter how specific you are, they will still misinterpret your hints, no matter how specific they are!

Kathy,
I hope you mean funny-ha,ha. Not funny-odd. You have me beat on the worst present ever. Mine was the Red Devil vacuum that was unwrapped for me by BadGifter H's boys as I held my two-week-old #1 son. I never saw it again, my Red Devil. After a year, I asked about it, and BadGifter H said, "Oh, I use it out in my workshop."
