I couldn't actually find out the kid's name from any sources, I was really hoping it would be "Earl" or something else that might light up his trailer park heritage. No doubt his momma is already star of their local tornado alley and is prob preparing a revelation right now for the National Enquirer as to how she was dun kider-napped by them thar aliens after coming out of the bar and impregnated (thus explaining why there's no dad around to make sure said offspring doesn't do daft stuff like electrocuting himself.)
it's very unfair to dismiss the whoel of the south-east of the United States as a desert of inbred backward drunken buffoons and wastrels, when I know there are islands of civilisation scattered here and there where you might think you're still in a civilised country. However driving a few miles in any direction (pref not when drunk, or you'd be a native) will introduce you to a world of stupidity, alcohol abuse and violence, the like of which even living on a British council estate couldn't prepare you.
We have them too, unf we can't corrall the majority in one part of the country and forget about them, every town has them; and again unlike America, their trashy subculture is now supreme in our land with even the Establishment paying lip-service to it.
Who says Mr Ed isn't real? What rubbish, I watched the show endlessly as a child and that horse can talk! Next you'll be saying that Francis the Talking Donkey was a fake too, and that Lassie really couldn't prevent a nuclear reactor from exploding by barking and pointing with her forepaw and making mushroon-cloud style gestures....
