[Andy Griffith]

There's been some Facebook posts that says Willie Nelson died, which he didn't of course.

On the other hand, Keith Richards died back around 1990 but no one told him.

[Andy Griffith]

Passed away on 3 July.

Always enjoyed his show as well as his comedic "Pigskin" tale and the Christmas Guest.

Another symbol of classy Hollywood quietly laid to rest...

Uh...yeah. ol' andy died 3 years ago :)

But fear not, you're not the only one that fell victim to some asshat posting it on social media that he just died and of course it went viral....for the second time,lmao.

Ditto to OS.... :)

Ran a couple with the FILTER ONLY method. Worked until they blew,lol.

[The Prophet Rod Sterling]

He was a visionary!

[How far will you drive for a good deal?]

I'd travel to the point where it stops being worthwhile to me to make the deal.

 

Not hard to decide really.

 

As usual Mike sums it up nicely !!!

[Survey says: 35 percent of Americans would expatriate]

Sounds like propaganda BS to me.

[TV Land cancelled Dukes of Hazzard]

I believe I noticed that before all this anti-flag silliness started so they were PC cowards before that.

BINGO !

As this post reflects, I am up in the wee hours of the morning and apparently that's when auto trader buys most of their air time. It took it a time or two before I noticed but then it was like a giant wart on a witches nose, lol .

[TV Land cancelled Dukes of Hazzard]

Anyone remember the AutoTrader commercial from last year ???

 

Google it and tell me what's missing :)

[CNN mistakes Dildo Flag for ISIS at Gay Pride parade]

Lmfao.

After hearing all the flag nonsense this week this story fits perfectly.

Some people should keep their mouth shut and their nose clean

[Church shooting in Charlston S.C.]

Negligence.

They're no different than the prison tailor who provided tools to the escape convicts. If they had any idea that he was going to do something violent, they should have reported it. Maybe the police would have turned a blind eye. I doubt it though. They could have helped save lives. To me, failure to report is a crime. Maybe my a felony, but it should at least be a misdemeanor.

Edit: I realize this is a slippery slope. I realize that a law like that could be dangerous, but as a human, I'm angry. So forgive me.

No way you would ever get negligence to stick. That would be cast aside under "awe he was always talking crazy stuff" .

I think it's funny we can't just stop at the accused anymore. We want to convict everyone who's ever met him/her.

For those in the knoxville area they are seeing the bus crash from dec.2014 play out in similar fashion . The one at fault is dead so let's go after the next in line.

Or a flag, a gun, a rogue cop, keep piling on till we feel satisfied

[Church shooting in Charlston S.C.]

What would they charge them with?

At the end of the day, the responsibility for the crime lies on the scumbag that pulled the trigger.

Agreed !

I was discussing the same topic this morning with someone who was all for prosecuting everyone involved. Unless they are accomplices we don't want to open that can of worms. We are already a country who loves civil suits .

[Brian Williams, MSNBC]

TV is full of liars. I watch Brian Williams for 30 minutes a night,5 nights a week.

Personally I couldn't care what he lies about as long as he reads what is on the prompter because he does that job well.

He can moonlight as a stripper in his spare time, doesn't matter to me !

[Healed!!! Demons come out!]

Nah, it's common to see this in foreign countries where locals pretend to be disabled near tourist attractions to beg for money. One of my favorites is a guy 'missing a leg'

Rofl. I've read about foreign countries being bad but didn't know it was to this extent !

Luckily I'm heartless...That's internationally ;)

[Walmart strikes again, this time more serious]

provider? Even if they actually cover, future customers should be cognizant of this philosophy, and prepare for less than stellar support by the provider. (not that it is unusual within the industry....)

I'll take a stab and go with the "your in good hands" company :)

[Some TV commercials are just plain stupid!!!!]

Without a doubt, asinine food commercials,BS spewing injury lawyers, and that worthless Dale Buchanan have NOTHING on commercials talking about a pill to get your johnson saluting again and 1 to bring back the moisture to that dried up berry ! 

[Walmart strikes again, this time more serious]

Having your vehicles serviced at Walmart is roughly akin to expecting to get a gourmet meal through the McDonald's drive-through window ...

Got less than a paragraph in and this ^ is where my mind went.

Made this mistake 1 time 10 years ago.

[RIP Dusty Rhodes]

A Saturday afternoon staple of television in Florida when I was growing up. Championship Wrestling from Florida with Gordon Soley announcing. Used to watch him wrestle Haystack Calhoun,Andre The Giant,Great Malenko and other old timers. Wrestling didn't used to be fake back then, it was real!

This makes me wonder where in the world they broadcast from because I watched the same show here on east tn. I still remember those like it was yesterday. Dutch Mantel, wendall cooley,the whole family of Armstrongs starting with bullet Bob, the night train express,the rockers, Jimmy golden and robert fuller,Mongolian stomper, Mr fuji...funny I can remember those guys to this day.

[The Whiskey and Spirits Thread]

Probably a chart recorder. Typically used to record temp & humidity.

Hey DJ I'd like to hear I've got rights by Bocephus :)

[Barrel work]

I want to have a shotgun barrel cut down and recrowned, bead sight replaced.

 

Any gunsmiths on here that can do that ?

 

Or anyone had it done and have a recommendation ?

 

Location isn't a big issue as I don't have a problem mailing it wherever I need to if the work is good.

 

For a Mossberg 500. I have a hack saw :)  but wanted something a little more pleasing to the eye

[Volvo's self-parking function works great!]

Call me crazy, but if you can't park the car maybe you shouldn't be driving it.

CRAZY ! :)

There you go factoring logic into it again ,lol.

[Orange Beach and Gulf Shores Alabama area restaurants]

Fwiw, the one and only time I have been we had an outstanding supper at The Grand Marlin. Not on the cheap but food so great you think the dish was actually prepared just for you. Which IMO is rare with seafood as most everything is fried in giant portions then the light keeps it warm until plated.

Pensacola btw.

[Local availability of stroopwafels]

To the OP, if in Knoxville try world market at turkey creek. A lot of the cuisine I prepare is foreign and they often have the needed spices or ingredients I can't find elsewhere.

Nothing I couldn't prepare , even a gluten free version, but to get them in that design and that thin you'll need a press.

[Well I felt safe tonight]

Until the OP confirms his point this thread is open to interpretation ,lol.

[The Whiskey and Spirits Thread]

I noticed another bourbon with a new label hit the shelf with a lack of an age statement. Jim Beam Black Label used to say 8 years old, then they switched to the title Double Aged, now the label says Extra Aged. No telling how old it is.

Distilleries simply can't keep up with the demand.

On a sad note we are completely sold out of Elmer T Lee.

I do have one bottle of Rock Hill I can sell if anyone wants to come in to the store this afternoon or tonight. Ask for me if you don't know me and please be discreet.
I think it is about 60 bucks otd give or take.

How do I go about getting on your "I have it in stock" short list ? Lmao

[Knoxville area members please check in]
