buzzard

In the rural midwest (Oklahoma, Texas, etc.): a dignified, countrified, vulgar man ranging from middle to old age. Usually sporting a dark tan from years of construction, plumbing, painting, or roofing work in the sun. Buzzards can be identified as wearing Levi's snap button shirts with a soft pack of Doral lights in the front pocket, old Wrangler jeans hanging past their crack with a snuff can ring on the back pocket, paint spattered, dusty work boots, and any assortment of old baseball caps. They listen to '70s country music (Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson. Merle Haggard, Hank Williams Jr., David Allan Coe) and frequent pool halls and state fairs. Some buzzards overlap into the biker subculture, wearing long ZZ Top beards, black leathers, and sporting tattoos. They are tough on the outside, but generally teddy bears when you get to know them.

They are separated from the redneck subculture in that they have a dignity about them - a stoic pride from years of work and hard living. Some buzzards have a romantic disposition about the world around them and are more good timin' men that belligerent white trash.

Buzzards can be defined perfectly by this line from a Waylon Jennings song:
"Those that don't know him won't like him and those that do sometimes won't know how to take him."
"Let's go get a beer in that buzzard bar over there. Those buzzards are burly and hilarious."

drop me a buzz

This phrase is being used with increasing regularity, especially amongst the ex-pat acting communities in Italy. Its meaning is ambiguous to say the least, however it is widely used when letting someone know they should call or email you at a later date. With increasing use (google currently has 9 entries for the phrase) this phrase is sure to go far.

n.b. this is NOT a muddled mess of 'drop me a line' and 'give me a buzz'. This is a phrase all by itself and has no relation to either. Anyone suggesting otherwise will likely find themselves with a libel case against their punk asses.
Actress: So you'll let me know when you hear from them?
Accountant(in an attempted cool voice): Yeah, no worries, just drop me a buzz
Actress (without the blink of an eye): ok, thats fine, i'll drop you a buzz

(both parties left this conversation a bit confused as to what they'd agreed to, unaware that they'd participated in something rare and amazing, the invention of a new phrase!)
