9. My brother-in-law
Is a pretty conservative, good ol' boy who hunts with guns and crossbows. Teddy came to Tulsa to sign copies of his latest book (that kill it and grill it one). My then girlfriend (from Colombia) and I went to the Borders to get a copy of it for my bro-in-law, and it was like walking into some crazy, lala land. He signed the book for me and said, "You enjoy that book. It's got a lot of wisdom in it." I almost burst something holding in my laugh.

Anyway, I gave it to my bro-in-law (who's a country music fan - never really paid too much attention to Ted), and he thanked me profusely. A month later I saw him again, and I asked him how he liked his book, and he said, "Well, the recipes look good, and I want to try some of them, but when I read it, I thought it was a humor book because I was sure no one would talk like this, but then I saw him on a hunting show, and he really is that stupid!" My sister chimed in that he's all talk and no walk and preferred to rip around the wilderness in a stupid looking SUV.
