About Me
- Bob Cline
- I performed from 1973 to 1995 with a couple years off in between. I did an aerial cradle act for three years, low wire as a clown, trained llamas, ponies, then lions and tigers for 15 years. I am now a firefighter, a member of the Circus Historical Society and an author of several circus and carnival related subjects.

Tea ? What's TEA ?? I thought you confederats drank HOOTCH ?
Hootch? What`s Hootch?? Down here we spell it Hooch !!! Let me enlighten you Jim, We have other names for moonshine too. Pay attention now and I`ll give you a few. Catdaddy, Jet Fuel, Corn Squeezin`s, Popskull, Stumphole, Old Horsey, Hillbilly Pop, Tiger Sweat, Ruckus Juice, Blue John, Ally Bourbon, Donkey Punch, Kickapoo, Red Eye, Cat Fight, Mule Kick, Happy Sally, Branch Water, Wild Cat, Rise N Shine, Panther Breath, Skull Cracker, Mountain Dew, Rotgut, and the always popular White Lightnin !!!!!!! How do I know these names you ask, because I had a Great Uncle that lived in Georgia and back in the fifties he made the stuff, all legal of course!!!!
Hal: I taught you better than to leave out "Pine Top."
Your friend who should know,
(Billcar Whitey, not Sideshow Whitey)
Yeah Dave, Forgot that one. Anyway, maybe we can teach these Yankee`s a few things about good sipping liquor!!!
Bob, Bet you didn`t think a plug about ice tea would generate this much of a conversation about moonshine did you?????
However Bob , it might indeed lead to a Semi-National Moonshine Day --- just in the South !
We want it just in the South, don`t want any Yankee infiltrators!!!
Isn't the infiltrator back behind the spout?
Perhaps this blog should be about the distillery trade instead. People seem to enjoy the "Fruits" of our labors.
Is corn a fruit?? I have heard of booze being made from most anything, potatos, peaches, apples, or anyting that will fermint. Don`t think Jim can make it from cheese & brats though!!
Was going to say the other day, we brew about a gallon of Lipton tea everyday around here. Just a slice or two of lemon without sugar. But then everything turned to corn squeezins on the blog???
From just north across the San Jacinto river from Moonshine Hill.

There's really a place called " Moonshine Hill"??????? I have heard of a " Bagpipe Hill" however ! Fact !!
Apparently, it's not just corn P.J.
Moonshine Hill is a ghost town from the oil boom days and is east of Humble Texas. Humble oil company formed in Humble and would later change their name to Exxon.
p.j.
There's a Duct Tape Festival taking place this weekend in Avon , Ohio -- (that's right around your place , isn't it Bob ?) if that helps !
