I have seen that slogan used before and seems like it was on official company documents of some sort. I do know that Rhett Stidham authored a little book by that name or maybe it was a sub title. My, don't things change in this world!! :lol:

Here is a link to an article that mentions the book in the first paragraph.

That was the title of Rhett's book.

Speaking of Politically Incorrect:
I grew up on Dead Indian Rd. out of Ashland Oregon. It was so named because a bunch of renegade Indians had raided some outlying ranches. The posse caught up with them in a large mountain meadow and a fight ensued and most of the Indians were killed. The Meadow was known as Dead Indian Meadow. Years later when the road was put through it was called Dead Indian Rd.

The PC crowd has changed the name to Dead Indian Memorial Rd. and no one remembers the history any more, 'cept us old farts. ::shrug::

Haven't checked a topo map lately, but down around Mobile, Alabama, where the Tensaw River delta fragments the convergiance of multiple rivers into a huge network of tide affected bayous and "lakes" before they drain into Mobile Bay, there used to be a big lake that was famous for its Shell-Cracker bream. Last time I saw a map, which was in the 1980's, the name had not been changed. Maybe it's called African-American Lake now. :roll:

We use to have a couple of roads around here that i guess they are now called African-American Creek Road and African-American Town Hill.
