why does it say ken is my "best friend" - hee hee hee - we have only met in person a total of three days

that kind of logic could diffuse a lot of friendships

do not call into question the accuracy of our quotations! if it says it in metro pulse, it is obviously true.
― hellzapoppa (tipsy mothra), Wednesday, 31 March 2010 17:58 (fourteen years ago) link
aw. they added the picture and corrected that ken was just a friend and not my bets friend forever.

Just got a friend request from a Jim Hollbert, who apparently is running for the u.s house seat there.
Is he worth it y/n?
― Jaw dropping, thong dropping monster (kingfish), Wednesday, 11 August 2010 03:56 (thirteen years ago) link
oh yes
― proprietor of gib (roxymuzak), Wednesday, 11 August 2010 03:59 (thirteen years ago) link
worth answering the friend request? or worth voting for?
either way, sure.

Awww.
I know a guy who used to have the job of replacing the lightbulbs on that sign.

That's beautiful, is it one of Cmac's?
How do y'all feel about a knoxfap, now that there are four (or more?) of us in knox! maybe drinks or lunch at downtown grill&brew?
― proprietor of gib (roxymuzak), Thursday, 19 August 2010 16:19 (thirteen years ago) link
xpost im not surprised he lost the job, that sign never has all of its bulbs!!!
― proprietor of gib (roxymuzak), Thursday, 19 August 2010 16:20 (thirteen years ago) link
I just found it doing a google image search so I am not sure if it is CMac's or not. I love that sign so much.
I totally want to do a Knox Fap. Is anyone else in? Otherwise it is a just a Robinson Fap.

roxy he had that job in the 1960s, maybe standards were higher then! i doubt it though. he said he used to replace some bulbs and then sit on the sign and drink a beer.

i would love to knoxville fap. next week or so is rough because i'm on full-time kid duty, but i could do a lunch somewhere in there. or some for-real pint-fancying some night after the end of the month.
― a tenth level which features a single castle (tipsy mothra), Thursday, 19 August 2010 17:47 (thirteen years ago) link
I will be in the outer banks until the 27th, so waiting til the first of the month for pints sounds ideal.

I will be home on the 27th and would love to FAP any day this weekend or any happy hour next week (30th - 3rd?)
Also, any Knoxvillians are welcome to come to my birthday party on the 3rd:http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=128980270481603&ref=ts#!/event.php?eid=148953265123018&ref=ts

the 2nd could be a good FAP night. (and i'd love to at least drop by the party on the 3rd to see the treehouse of the Family R@binson.)

Just clicked this thread for the first time since Big Ears. I don't live in Knoxville, but I wish I did! If it were just a couple hours drive I'd def. make the FAP scene, but it's like six hours and a time zone for me.
I like the idea of acquiring the nickname "Big Crump".
I would travel to XMASEFAP.

Man, this thread is full of my favorite ILX0rs. I will probably be in Louisiana with in-laws over Christmas but I would gladly mail myself in an SASE to the XMASEFAP if I could.

hell at least 1/3 of my knoxville friends are yankees (or westerners, or otherwise not-f'um-here). as a smalltown mayor told me at my first tennessee newspaper job, "just slow down a little, and you'll do just fine here."

We have SEFAP a few days before Christmas in Atlanta. Are ya'll suggesting merging having an additional one, as well?
So, we are meeting on the 2nd, right? We could do Sullivans or Backroom. Those are across the street from the two of us Robinsons. Are either good for ya'll? Or any other ideas?

I jumped the gun yesterday -- I probably wouldn't be able to travel to any December FAP unless it was after Xmas. Thanksgiving through mid-Dec is slammed workwise, and after that it's family holiday Forced Recreation stuff.
