RedneckSec  The Intersection of Rednecks and HackersJon Molesa<rjmolesa@consoltec.net>

IntroductionRednecks get a bad rep. I think there are a lot of similarities between rednecks and hackers. Hopefully by thetime I’m finished you’ll at least consider the same thing.

Bobby MojoWas discussing nick names one day at work

Co-workers thought I reminded them of Ricky Bobby from Taledaga Nights

I believe this was because of the redneck association. I lived in NC mountains at the time.

They came up with some complexish rules which I’ll explain with an example.

The first half of you "Bobby Name" is the first two letters of your last name. If the second letterof your last name is not a vowel, then the next letter from your last name is added on until youfind the first vowel. The second half of your "Bobby Name" is made up of simply the first twoletters of your first name.

Mojo is a shortened form of Bobby Mojo.

Mojo is derived from (Jo)n (Mo)lesa, then swap places.

MoJo, then tack a "Bobby" on the front and BAM Bobby Mojo

Venn Chart (Rednecks vs Hackers)

Rednecks Portrayed in MediaMost focus on the idiotic crap they do

Usually involve near death expirements

Or the unintentional? destruction of private property

Meant to illustrate how dumb rednecks are

Jeff FoxworthyThe first famous redneck I can recall.

"You might be a redneck if…"

Larry the Cable Guy

And of course Mater!

History Channel

Duck Dynasty (A&E)Not a bad show. Most of it seems scripted and intentionally goofy. The earlier shows were more genuine andentertaining.

Moonshiners (Discovery)

Hillbilly Hand Fishing:Noodling (Animal Planet)

Swamp People (History)

Vic Vandal: also from Louisiana

Honey Boo Boo (TLC)

Sled Necks (MTV)

Rocket City Rednecks (National Geographic)This one is an exception. Focuses on ingenuity. These guys are actual rocket scientists and more importantlyrednecks.

Story TimeA man named Clive grew up in his Dad’s small business

Drpped out of school in the 6th grade

Bought his Dad’s business

He dreamt up and had built pneumatic powered machines

They would take raw blank material in one side

Spit cut and drilled pieces out the other side

ConclusionRednecks are a VERY inventive bunch

They are extremly creative problem solvers

They don’t let the lack of resources ($$$) stop them

Yes things don’t aways work out as expected

But hey! At least they tried something

If you’re from the South, embrace your Redneck side
