Meanderings of your typical Southern, small-town, kayaking, nonconformist, Parrothead "yupneck" (half-yuppie, half-redneck)

You ain't seein' my drawers
During my son's annual checkup at his pediatrician's office, the nurse told him to strip down to his underwear, and the doctor, a woman, would be in shortly. Saylor looked her square in the eye and informed her, "I am not doing that!"
I'm currently the director of communications at The Fuller Center for Housing in Americus, Ga.
I grew up in Oglethorpe, Ga., which literally has just one traffic light, and I remain a small-town boy at heart. I consider myself a "yupneck," which is half-yuppie, half-redneck.
I've written for the Columbus Ledger-Enquirer since 1997. I've also worked as a sports writer and columnist at newspapers in Americus, Valdosta and Montezuma, all in Georgia.
Ideally, I'd live out the rest of my days as a novelist living in relative seclusion somewhere on the beautiful Georgia Coast, dragging my kayak onto lonesome beaches and jotting down the occasional story idea.
