The Tennessee River in two different ares of the state and LBL.

If you boat or fish there is Beech Lake inside the city limits on Hwy 412. Just a few miles away is Natchez Trace State Park with boating and fishing, outdoor shooting range, and some good geocaching with hikes if you are into that. You will be close to Parkers Crossroads (I40 and Hwy 22) with Civil War History. The Tn River is not far away and some of the marinas probably rent pontoon boats. There is a great hike to Lady Finger Bluff wth a great view just across the river and north of Hwy 412. That is really worth the hike. If I could get a picture to post I would post one of the view from the top. You would not be disappointed if you decided to do this.

And build a really tall fence. With both we might have fairly secure borders. It will never happen with our current president. He will give the whole country away if that is what it takes to keep other countrys from thinking we are not a nice country.

That is something I've got to have!

I did not look at every link here so I hope this was not posted. It shows the mess left on the trails where the illegals cross the border near Tucson. I think you will be amazed at the mess left behind. AZ Sonoran Desert, outside Tucson, AZ - BettorsChat

We have now pulled ahead by 1%.

Perfect response.

Same here. About as far as I go is to throw it out of the yard. My wife is very afraid of any of them so I just get them away from the house.

That sounds like a nightmare but it does one of the things they want to do, grow government.

Congratulations!

I left all of those blank. I can't say how it affected it but it worked. I don't know how some of you got the really negative scores you did but I'm wondering, do I need to be afraid of you:)

-6 Looks like I have some work to do to catch up with some of you.

What is a contingency vote?

I'll second that.

I'm so glad someone got to him in time. He is a trooper.

Mustard! One of my sons puts catchup on his. I can hardly stand to look at it.

I know a lot of you don't like this bill and I know it could be better. Whatever you think of it you have to give Todd credit. He put up with a lot to get this bill passed. If you have watched all the house sessions on this bill you know what I mean. Some of them tried every way they could to kill this bill way before today's vote but he hung tough. Even though it could be better maybe it was the best he could do and still get it passed and I think he deserves our thanks. Maybe it will work out ok for us.

This attitude is what is wrong with schools now. When schools could discipline students you did not see all the things going on that we see today. No one wants their kid disciplined a school anymore and the kids know they can get away with anything. I agree that discipline is the parents job but in so many cases this does not happen. I got whipped at school many times and got it again when I got home. I deserved it every time and it made me a better person.

The same thing has crossed my mind several times. I know it's possible nothing like this happened but something just does not feel right.

Sorry for your loss. It sounds like he was quite a guy.

I was wondering the same thing as I was reading that. AND how do they stay there?

I just can't understand how a human being, if he can be called that, can do that to a child. I don't think I have ever heard of child abuse that bad. Really really sad.

Slow drivers in the left lane. That gets my blood pressure up quicker than anything. else.

That would be very cool in the back of a old truck filled with some of the old six ounce bottles of Coke but I bet it will be hard to find a lid for it. It would be hard to find the six ounce Cokes too. Do they even make them anymore.

After reading comments from the public, last year and this year from people concerning handgun carry legislation, it seems like some people really think the people who are for these laws are hill billy/red neck, love to drink and shoot firearms, vigilante, missing several teeth, and uneducated. Now I'm not down on hill billy/red neck. Being a life long resident of Tennessee I guess I have a little in me but not the way I take it from reading those comments. People that I can think of that would think fits the discription of these commenters do not have a carry permit and I don't think would even bother with getting one. Where does this stereotype come from? These people must not know anyone who has a carry permit or they would see who we really are.
