My mother told me that in her tiny "Biblebelt" hometown, when she was a kid, there was a lady who lived just outside of town who was the local "Moonshine" dealer during the dry times (& after, too!). She said everybody in the county & miles around knew about it, including the local sherrif. Knowing how the folks in the town were mostly teetotalers, I was shocked that the Baptist preacher (well known for his hellfire & damnation sermons of the evils of drink, music & dance) allowed it! She replied, "Who do you think he got his 'shine from?"
