If I recall, Coolio did not take lightly to this.

Kentucky Amish help neighbors through storm

By The Associated Press
Originally published 08:04 a.m., February 5, 2009

MAYFIELD, Ky. — When the wind died down and the ice storm had passed, Joe Stutzman gathered his spare lanterns and stepped out of his Amish farmhouse to lend them to his modern-living neighbors.

“I feel sorry for my neighbors who were used to electricity and all of a sudden didn’t have it,” Stutzman said. “I know that must be hard for them.”

Hundreds of thousands of people in Kentucky have been without electricity for their lights, furnaces, ovens and refrigerators since the killer storm hit more than a week ago, and some spots might not get power back for weeks.

But Kentucky’s Amish have been living that way all their lives. And when the disaster struck, they generously lent a hand to their non-Amish neighbors and showed them how it’s done.

“Those folks are very good at sustaining themselves,” said Master Sgt. Paul Mouilleseaux, a National Guard spokesman.

The Stutzman family and the roughly 8,500 other Amish in the state were essentially unaffected by the storm that knocked out power to more than 1.3 million customers last week, about half of them in Kentucky.

Stutzman, his wife and their seven children were secure in their toasty, two-story home amid corn and soybean fields and swampy stands of cypress in western Kentucky.

“We paid it no attention,” Stutzman said Tuesday, relaxing in a handmade rocker as a wood stove across the room radiated heat on a windy morning with temperatures in the low 20s.

I don't think that Amish Airways lasted too long.
You never ask a navy man if he'll have another drink, because it's nobody's goddamned business how much he's had already.

Yeah, the barter system is not a good way to run a business.

Amish Men Sentenced for Drug Roles The Associated Press, June 30, 1999 By Joann Loviglio PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Two Amish men received a year in prison Wednesday for buying cocaine from bikers and selling it among youth groups in their strict religious community. Abner Stoltzfus, 25, and Abner King Stoltzfus, 24, Lancaster County men who are not related, are members of the Old Order Amish, the most conservative Anabaptist sect. They eschew automobiles, electricity, computers, fancy clothes and most other modern conveniences, and use horse-driven buggies for transportation. ``These defendants ... were responsible for bringing disrepute to themselves, their families and their community,'' U.S. District Judge Clarence C. Newcomer said. Nearly 200 Amish, some holding babies, packed the courtroom and hallway outside. All were clad in traditional Amish dress - women in dark smocks and white bonnets, men in suspenders and straw hats. As Newcomer read the sentences, many wept quietly or buried their faces in their hands. Both men apologized to the judge and said they have turned their lives around since their arrest in June 1998, returning to their religious roots and spreading the word in the Amish community about the dangers of drugs. ``When I was a teen-ager I got with the wrong crowd. ... I've changed my life around (and) gave my heart and soul to God,'' Abner Stoltzfus said. ``I apologize deep from the bottom of my heart.'' A sobbing Abner King Stoltzfus said only a few words before he was overcome with emotion. ``We lived a terrible life for a while. We want to try to be better,'' he said. Newcomer said he appreciated the men's cooperation with investigators - they wore recording devices in their hats during discussions with Pagans motorcycle gang members. But the judge said he had to send a message about the severity of the men's actions. Prosecutors said the men purchased $100,000 worth of cocaine from members of the Pagans between 1992 and 1997, then sold the drugs at hoe-downs for the Crickets, the Antiques and the Pilgrims youth groups. The men pleaded guilty to conspiracy to deliver cocaine and could have received up to four years in prison.

You should see the rest of 'em...I try reviving a thread and hit a strange fetish jackpot! EDIT: It becomes very clear, very quickly that she is, in fact, not even remotely Amish.
