Listening to the radio sure can be dangerous these days. I've heard lots of stuff come across the airwaves and into my car...but never instructions to remove my willie!

MMMMM!!! LOVE MY BACON!

I'll add my poor opinion here. I bought some Jimmy Dean Sausage Biscuits made from Plant Based Protiens. Just to see how it was. Personally...it tastes pretty bad to me. It's edible, but not sausage as I think it should taste. BK Impossible Burger...not liking at all. But all the doom and gloom makes me think I might have to like it soon. Wish I had/could afford a HUGE walk in freezer compartment. I would be stocking up.

Not really well prepared on this front at the moment. I was keeping boots and change of clothing in a bag for a long time, but seem to have moved it out. Just a thought from an old geezer, keep a few days/week supply of any meds you might take on a daily basis. And remember to change them out about every month to keep them fresh and viable for use.

My family and I were coming back from a trip up "North" just after the Red Boiling Springs Flood. It was a horrible sight. Freight cars and automobiles jumbled on the hillsides. Not something I've thought of in a long time. We were not wiped out in 2010, but had near 20K in damage and cleanup costs. I cannot express how much I feel sorrow for the folks in Waverly. Wife and I spent Tuesday cleaning out closets to send clothing via one of the local collection events. Took 10 heavy duty trash bags of clothes, a couple cases of TP and paper towels yesterday. Will be sending more as we get it together. I spoke with a young man whose family is in Waverly when we dropped the things off. He says they were not totally wiped out as many were, but his family has a small farm home they haven't been able to get to as yet and worried about it. All donations of any kind are appreciated. They need everything! He told me the surrounding community stores are almost empty of food, water, and clothing. It's being bought and donated to the Waverly folks. Makes me feel good to see that happen. Bless all you guys going up to help. I really wish I could go and get more involed than just the donations, but my feet and legs just won't allow me to do it anymore. Just would love to sort of repay the help we recieved in 2010.

I never thought or believed anything else of it.

As I've said before; I was and still am mistrustful of all this. I do agree there was, is, and evidently will be more trouble from the release of the Covid-19 virus from China. But have taken the Moderna vaccine in March, I'm looking into the boosters now. As with me, my wife, a retired nurse, has had many reservations on taking any of the vaccines; but since she has not, and in light of the current comments, we are discussing whether she should. I believe she is going to go ahead and do it. Looking now for a location to take the Moderna. Can't get it from where I did, since I was injected thru my Oncology Clinc. Mac...I really appreciate your last few posts here. I appreciate the opinions and facts you have presented. It's well worth knowing your background and understanding your rationale. Makes it easier to show all this to my wife. Thank you.

Phil proudly called himself an "infotainer" for years, never calling himself anything more than this. I thought sometimes that Phil was surprised by the level of success he achieved combining news and comedy. It led to him being seen a focal point, a spokesperson, for his own value system. Which was seen as strongly conservative. From there, his status made him a central figure in first local, then state politics. For a while it seemed he was going to become a big name in national talk radio. But from what I understood, problems in syndication and differences with radio management and owners brought him back to Nashville and state instead of big network deals. Just what little I heard of it. In any event, Phil was a big part of my radio listening life for many years. He educated and informed me on many topics, and was responsible for my edging from the sheep and seeing beyond my small world. Even woke my wife as I talked of what I heard every day. She was never really interested in politics until she finally started listening as well. I couldn't believe it as she began telling me about what she'd heard in her daily driving. We both will miss Uncle Phil.

Agree on both counts. I started seeing gleeful and tasteless vindictive comments Saturday on Faceclap. Seems the hate of the Civil and conservative knows no bounds.

Can't say how long I have listened to "Uncle Phil Valentine. Since his early days and when I started on the road sales in the mid 90s, I think. Always enjoyed his take on life and politics. I, and many, many others, will sorely miss him. My condolences to his family and friends. Also praying for them and his radio family as well. May you Rest in Peace and bliss, away from the squabbles of this world.

Loved that song! Another big loss for the music world. Tom T. was one of my Dad's favorites and I had to listen when we drove anywhere. Seems that Tom's works struck a chord in me, and I began to appreciate the man and his ability to touch my heart with his voice and his lyrics. May you write many wonderful songs for that Heavenly Choir.

And that's why we love the TGO family!

You say it well. As the husband of a retired RN of 43 years in nursing, I can say that I've heard all you have mentioned and maybe some other things as well. Short answer...I agree.

The apocalypse must be near. I'm agreeing with you, Erik88.

OK...my pitiful viewpoint. As an old, very much less mobile fat man who has cut down a few trees, and cut up a whole lot more after storms here...GET SOMEONE ELSE TO DO THIS!! I know, seeing me now, that statement is hard to believe; but I've tackled some really large trees. That was 10 years, and 50 pounds ago. On 2 good legs then. Don't risk it Greg. It's not worth it. AND...that poison ivy. A brief touch and I'm in misery with it. Same with poison oak. I can walk near Poison Sumac and get covered with it. Really don't even have to touch it.

That would be awesome. Hope we can work it out sometime.

I know(roughly) about where you are! I've shot at Bend of the River several times, but it's been long ago. Dad, my brother-in-law and I were there together on my last trip. Dad proceeded to educate us on the finer points of Skeet shooting! Kicked our butts! Miss him and those days. Actually I miss Tad as well.

Second comment from me. My Shield Plus Performance Center 4" is climbing rapidly on my list. I like it more and more as time goes by.

Maybe a Sicilian deer. Open contract on the hawk.

Considering FUJIMO's location tag, I'm guessing the Knoxville Expo Center.

Thanks. I'll have to Google her.

OK...I give up. Who is she?

I absolutely hate drive thru...especially in the days of closed dining rooms. Seems like it gets slower and slower all the time. It was bad enough before Covid. Now it's worse.

Hilarious! Love It!

Bass Pro charges you to go in? Seems rather chintzy since they try to scalp us on everything in their stores.
