Scotch is over-rated. Get you a nice bottle of Dominican Rum like Barcelo or the one from Nicaragua called Flor De Cana and torch a good Dominican cigar and your set!

Be careful otherwise I may be tweeting at you next if you continue to give VN bad information.

We went to championship game couple of times, but always got beat by the private schools. One that I Remember was Ezel-Harding. I lived in Atlanta at that time, but would come just for that game.

I graduated from ezell

My grandfather died in 1952, two years before I was born. My grandmother stayed in her home until 1984, living alone and scaring the wits out of my mother and uncle toward the end, as she had a gas stove but was no longer firing on all cylinders. Lots of burned-up black-eyed peasant ruined saucepans.

When her heart finally wore out, they brought her to my mother's house on a Monday, took her to the ER that Friday, and she died an hour later. When my mother got back home, the Seth Thomas clock that my grandfather had given her as a wedding present in 1922 had stopped at the time of her death. That clock is now on the mantel in my living room.

During the Depression, they had three mortgages on their house (the one on Tanglewood) and took in boarders. My grandfather was laid off from the railroad, and as a former teacher, she went to the Memphis Board of Education to apply for a job. The man who interviewed her said, "Mrs. Jones, I can't hire a woman when men are out of work." So yeah...

Good old Goldsmith's, now Macy's (boo.) I worked one Christmas (1973? 1974?) at the Goldsmith's at Poplar and Park, in the record department.

(Yes children, there were these things called "records.")

I was required to play Elvis's "Blue Christmas" every three rotations. I thought I would lose my mind. There are only three (maybe) Elvis songs I liked, and that ain't one of them. I protested by playing Pure Prairie League and Al Green in hot rotation.

Happy Friday, namaste y'all, and Gruden to the hill! Apologies for the nostalgia attack! eace2:

Absolutely loved reading it. Thanks. :hi:

Nice of you to do that. I worked for UPS in college and the problem is if even if the truck is in Knoxville, which it likely will be, it may not be scheduled to be unloaded till early Monday morning for outbound delivery.

If it gets unloaded and sorted before then there is a chance.

Wasn't aware that's how it worked, but we had a part coming in and they screwed up delivery and our guy picked picked it up. I picked something up on a Saturday out there years ago, but I guess they have changed hours.

 

[Power T-Rev]

We are getting lots of beaver tonight

Score!!

 

[kayakonthefly]

In due time. One will be a black tie event and another will be a big tailgate.

Does it count of we wear our black tie with a t-shirt?

 

[sona]

In due time. One will be a black tie event and another will be a big tailgate.

Am I good for the black tie?

 

[Grayvol4life]

I have always believed Tuesday for some reason .... don't even know why? At any rate the confirmation would settle a lot of restless minds

Tuesday is legit. He emailed me a bunch of pics. And a text. All of which i believe.

 

[Doyle Hargraves]

Fulmer says he has 0 to do with the search

Ask Coach Majors about Phil's honesty.

 

[BJWeeks]

Which option would be your best guess?

Sexton

 

[MIT_Beaver]

Beaver, what is your GHIN?

Do you want to play a money game against me?

 

[apevol]

Tonight I am the anti-Beaver.
Drinking cheap whiskey and smoking cheaper cigarettes.
I won't be speaking in any cryptic codes.
Mods go to red alert.

Damn right.

 

[Vollymall]

Dont understand? Explain please.

Total conjecture, but if there is a MOU, contract, or anything else in writing, I wouldn't expect it to be uploaded anywhere until after an official announcement. If it exists it's in the attorneys' hands until then.

 

[volkayaker]

I'd say the lawyers have it pending the announcement

I'd say you're exactly right. Paper is the safest way to do business, especially with sensitive information.

 

[Coastypop]

Keeps you balanced

Well after all I am unbalanced a lot

 

[VolsCigarMan]

As someone who works in the freight industry, I would never, ever, use UPS. Their logistics and “war room” as they call it, is unorganized chaos.

I’ve worked with Fedex and UPS and I would choose fedex every day bc they are organized and go above and beyond what they have to.

UPS has dropped. My company XPO Logistics is now #2 right behind Fedex but not much. After our next acquisition which will be early 2018 we will pass Fedex. We might even purchase Fedex. We got the money.

Good Scotch is good stuff! Bad Scotch is bad stuff!

Simple as that

Didn’t Tuesday say he was a DJ?

Gruden’s son is a DJ...

Is Tuesday Mike Gruden?

 

[JFreak]

Do you want to play a money game against me?

With handicaps? Absolutely. Can live stream for VN.

When this announced I will get you a quart of original Popcorn Sutton's stuff if you are interested. One of his last runs! I keep what I have for special occasions!

 

[windrider]

I graduated from ezell

I remember that game when Ezell Trotted out about 40 players, and a couple of the players went on to division 1 colleges. Game was close for the first half, but you all were just way too deep for us.

Who was it that said they want a recommendation for scotch for a first timer? This is what I'm currently drinking and trust me, I'm pretty sure a first timer would like it!
