I was resting on the couch earlier, watching the movie "Phenomenon" with John Travolta and I realized something. In all these movies about small towns, there's always some tall, dark haired man in flannel and denim who can fix anything from your truck to your plumbing. One who's single, charming and always says the right thing. One who always falls in love with the single mom who's been done wrong and who thinks she doesn't need a man, yet he persists.
It happens in "Hope Floats," "Where the Heart is" and a string of other movies made about single moms in small towns. It's a common theme on television too, like the guy who owned the diner on "The Gilmore Girls."
I'm here to tell ya'll that the gorgeous, dark haired bachelor who drives around small towns in his old pick up truck with his hound dog, helping old people and saving his heart for a good woman is a myth.
In Frog Pond Holler, you stand a better chance of finding Bigfoot roasting wienies down at the campground.

Oh, but I love those kinds of movies and tv shows. But deep down, yeah... I kind of knew that guy doesn't really exist. He's too good to be able to stay single that long.
Yeah, but don't tell the younguns out there - they need to have something to hope for...
Like a middle class Cinderella...LOL. Yeah, we all wish it were true....
Dang, Mahala...did you have to drop that on me this morning??? I have pms, allergies and a long, dull day ahead. Heavy sigh.
Well, keep up the good and entertaining work.
I actually met a dark haired bachelor who drove around small towns in his old pick up truck with his hound dog, helping old people and saving his heart for a good woman .... and I married his ass pronto.
They do exist, you gotta catch 'em before someone else does!
LMAO how true! Even desperate housewives has the proverbial 'Mike the plumber'
