Not bad, Lou. However, my encyclopedia has a slightly different
description.

"Mud Duck: Poorly educated, illiterate, person
often begot by adults and/or children of the
same immediate family. Most often seen
hanging around woods or swamps, usually
with a female relative or male friend, supposedly
hunting for raccoons or possum. They can easily
be differentiated from other creatures by the
large, protruding, belly and telltale tobacco
products and liquor stuffed into the pockets of
camouflage overalls. Inbreeding, a generous use
of alcohol, and a tendency to carry guns nearly
everywhere (dates, weddings, church, and so
on), makes this backwoods creature particularly
dangerous."

Many in the South refer to them as a "backwoods redneck" to differentiate
from the somewhat harmless city or town redneck. ;-)
