From Egypt a Salute to Dixieland !

A Salute from the Nile of Egypt to the Mississippi of the South.

A Salute from the King Cotton in the East to the King Cotton in the West.

My greetings to the Bible Belt, where Egypt is mentioned, which still resists—with its innate traditional rural nature—the temptations of globalization.

The morals of the rural South carry a gallantry that reminds us of the chivalry of the ancient Pharaohs.

The Mississippi River flows gently, much like the Nile, and both irrigate a fertile land and sustain farmers who know the true meaning of dignity in labor.

The cotton threads woven by our hands and yours are not mere trade, but rather messages of respect exchanged between two civilizations.
