Test Post

Just checking to see if this new method works....

I ran out of ideas....

This is an x-ray of my briefcase, in case any of you were wondering what I carry daily.

More Morristown

It appears to be like a 7 part series on Morristown. I didn't think there was enough info about Morristown to make 7 series. Jeff City maybe...but Morristown?

What's next, an expose' on Tuckyhoe? A 3 part series on famous people who live in Mascot? A heart warming personal story on Straw Plains?

You East Tennessee'rs get all the good pub.

Morristown Article

The Houston Chronicle had a big article today (front page)about illegal immigration and an uproar in Morristown. It was odd reading about Morristown on the front of the Houston paper.

They also showed a map of M'Town with what (according to the map) are your only two businesses. A chicken deboning plant and a chicken slaughtering plant.

They interviewed people in trailers, mentioned the KKK and racism. So that pretty much covers you hillbillies. It seemed a little one-sided....

Happy Birthday...

There are a lot of celebrity birthdays today. I like celebrity birthdays cause it always surprises me how old tv stars have gotten while I stayed relatively the same age....

Chuck (Johnny B. Goode) Berry is 80 today. Keith (Whoa Nelly) Jackson is 78. Mike (I'll rip your head off if you run up the middle) Ditka is 67. And...Mork's wife, Mindy (Pam Dawber) is 55 today. 55! Na-Nu, Na-Nu.

Bug Shot

Bug picture I took. Woohoo.

Cool photo

Ever wonder what happens to the big orange external tank that is jettisoned from the space shuttle as it gets to orbit? It floats back down to earth and is burned up in re-entry. Here is a picture from the last shuttle misison that shows it floating down over European farmland. This photo was taken from the shuttle. Cool huh?

My dream car

Two great Rock-n-Rollers have birthdays today. Chubby Checker is 65, and Ashlee Simpson is 22 today.

And yes, that was the Oscar Meyer Weinermobile. What gave it away? Were the words "weinermobile" on the bumper a clue?
