I had a very similar view of So. Carolina shortly after graduating from AIT. I was havin' a nice time, downin' a coupla beers, when I felt somthing on my shoulder. I looked up, and it was the ground.

Sorry, Juggler! I didn't know you were going for the hat trick, or I would have stepped aside.
Posted by: Suzy Q | August 31, 2006 at 10:11 AM

Dave, I think you've been indulging in a little too much federal assistance.
Posted by: fivver | August 31, 2006 at 10:13 AM
Couldn't you weakling Floridians have deported this stupid thing? After all, his name is Ernesto. Now, we Virginians will have our Labor Day weekend ruined because y'all did nothing. Thanks a lot!

it was horrible! there was drizzle everywhere, puddles to be navigated, downed leaves and pine needles across the roads, intermittent sunshine.

In the words of my dear friend, blurk...HUNKER DOWN!!! oh and have plenty of hurricane therapy.

"The National Hurricane Center has issued a hurricane watch for South Carolina and North Carolina as Tropical Storm Ernesto’s winds strengthen to 60 mph."
Good luck!

Dave, where are you, btw, the smoke's so thick here today, that the sun is read. Another fire somewhere.
*goes back to rereading Revelation*
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | August 31, 2006 at 11:25 AM
Wyo, I knew you were a good guy before but you have cemented it. Anybody who remembes Junior Samples from Hee Haw is all right in my book.
Posted by: blurk | August 31, 2006 at 11:31 AM
I once painted BR-549 on the side of that old '46 Chevy Wrecker. Lotsa old people grinned at me.
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | August 31, 2006 at 11:34 AM
Blurk, not only are there those of us who remember Junior Samples, some folks named a band after the phone number
Posted by: pogo | August 31, 2006 at 11:36 AM
LOL I liked Junior too Wyo, and I'm in Tampa, FL.
Posted by: DavetheRed in the stench of smoke | August 31, 2006 at 11:37 AM
When I was a kid (4 or 5 years ago) I actually tried to call that number. My dad had to 'splain that maybe I might not reach anybody.
Posted by: blurk | August 31, 2006 at 11:39 AM
hey where's Annie WBH? anybody seen her?
Posted by: Betsi | August 31, 2006 at 11:39 AM

Oh it looks bad. Yes. It. Do.
Posted by: Lisa Bisa Fo Fisa | August 31, 2006 at 11:44 AM
Betsi-Last time I heard Annie was working long hours. She promised she'd be back though, when she has more time.
Posted by: Lisa Bisa Fo Fisa | August 31, 2006 at 11:46 AM
There were two television shows that were never missed in my house way back when:
Hee Haw and The Porter Wagner Show.
I don't think my dad watched TV any other time.
Posted by: blurk | August 31, 2006 at 11:46 AM
well, in keeping with support for people in Ernesto's FUTURE path, and those in its PREVIOUS path who all still discombooulated over it...

Posted by: Betsi | August 31, 2006 at 11:49 AM
Blurk - I lived w/my grandparents for a while - other than Hee Haw, I watched the Lawrence Welk Show, 60 Minutes (are those guys ever gonna die??) and The Wonderful World of Disney - no wonder I'm so weird!!
Posted by: Gypsysoul66 | August 31, 2006 at 11:50 AM
blurk, at my house it was hee haw, benny hill and dance fever. my dad was a perv.

Porter and Dolly used to sing "Fight 'n scratch, fight 'n scratch, that's all we ever do..."
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | August 31, 2006 at 11:53 AM
I was forced to watch the Lawrence Welk Show. It's amazing I'm even semi-normal
Posted by: kitten | August 31, 2006 at 11:53 AM
I feel your pain Kitten
Posted by: Gypsysoul66 | August 31, 2006 at 11:54 AM
I don't recall ever seeing the Porter Wagner show, but when a trivia questioned started with "This singer got her start on the PW show..." I yelled out "Dolly" so maybe there's something stuck in my memory...
Posted by: kitten | August 31, 2006 at 11:56 AM
Ernesto has already caused damage. It messed with my tee times. Although, I guess if I was a real golfer a hurricane wouldn't stop me.
Posted by: Matt | August 31, 2006 at 11:56 AM
Gypsy, I forgot about the Wonderful World of Disney! Sunday night, 7 o'clock.
crossgirl...um...sounds like me and your dad might get along. Ya know, Hee Haw and all.

To quote one of my favorite movies...
The Horror The Horroe.
Posted by: Addicted to 24 | August 31, 2006 at 11:58 AM
Lawrence Welk was a good show with the sound turned down. Fun to look at, from a guy of the male persuasion's point of view. As was Petticoat Junction.
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | August 31, 2006 at 11:58 AM
yep - Tinkerbell smacking the castle with fairy dust - immediately after Andy Rooney on CBS - ah, what a combo!!

hey - let's not forget Green Acres!!
Gotta say, Arnold was my favorite character...LOL
Posted by: Gypsysoul66 | August 31, 2006 at 12:01 PM
Red Skelton was on after Disney. If they'da moved Carol Burnet to Sunday night, the cows never woulda got fed.
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | August 31, 2006 at 12:02 PM
I too, was forced to watch the Lawrence Welk Show, but I did like Hee Haw.
Posted by: DavetheRed in the stench of smoke | August 31, 2006 at 12:02 PM
Startin' to look like I'm not the only hick on this here blog.
For the young man with hormones ragin' I only have two words:
Petticoat. Junction.

I too am very much qualified as a hick

I have two more Blurk, nurse goodbody.
Posted by: DavetheRed in the stench of smoke | August 31, 2006 at 12:05 PM
Goodbody was good, but (even though they never showed it), just couldn't compete with Bobby Jo and her sisters bathin' in the water tower.
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | August 31, 2006 at 12:07 PM
anyone admit to liking the bobby vinton show?
Posted by: crossgirl | August 31, 2006 at 12:07 PM
great movie there, addicted to 24.
Posted by: DavetheRed in the stench of smoke | August 31, 2006 at 12:07 PM
DavetR, Nurse Goodbody was the source of many, many
fantasiesmedical lessons.Posted by: blurk | August 31, 2006 at 12:08 PM
*snork* at blurk and wyo, seems like we watched a lot of the same shows.
Posted by: DavetheRed in the stench of smoke | August 31, 2006 at 12:09 PM
we only got one station, and it had CBS and NBC. Had to hold the coat hanger just right, even at that.
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | August 31, 2006 at 12:11 PM
I think we need a Congressional investigation into this hurricane's criminal failure to slam into New Orleans, thus depriving the news media a good juicy story. You can tell how upset they all are.
Posted by: Bill | August 31, 2006 at 12:12 PM

*watched hick-type tv shows* :P
Posted by: Siouxie | August 31, 2006 at 12:12 PM
Okay this goes into the 70's, but my crushes were on the dark haired guy in Emergency and PMG in Starsky and Hutch. Then of course, there was David Cassidy (due to the RS cover...yum)
Posted by: Gypsysoul66 | August 31, 2006 at 12:14 PM
DavetR, When you grow up in the middle of West Virginia you don't really get exposed to a lot of culture. When I tell people where I'm from I describe it as "drive until you get to the boondocks...and go about 10 more miles." Those shows were the pinnacle of class and sophistication.
Wyo, you forgot the aluminum foil.
Posted by: blurk | August 31, 2006 at 12:16 PM
Still no sign of
HuricaneTropicalstormbreezeturn-your-head-and-cough Ernesto out here in Sunny Arizona.But we do have Hurricane John to deal with now.
Posted by: Schadeboy | August 31, 2006 at 12:16 PM
Gypsy, same here and that guy from Mod Squad??
Although my crush was always Donny Osmond. (gag)
Posted by: Siouxie | August 31, 2006 at 12:16 PM
my first crush was Emma Peel from "the Avengers". Then Susan Dey from "the Partridge Family" Later Mariette Hartley from "the Rockford Files".
Posted by: mudstuffin | August 31, 2006 at 12:17 PM
Ah yes, Hee Haw. "I'm a pickin', and I'm a grinnin!"
Not to mention the other greats, Green Acres, Beverly Hillbillies, Petticoat Junction, Disney...
They don't, I say, they don't make 'em like they used to.

Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | August 31, 2006 at 12:18 PM
blurk, even as a city girl...(and a cuban one at that)I watched every one of those shows back then. Carol Burnett was the best, IMHO.
(except Lawrence Welk) *shudder*
Posted by: Siouxie | August 31, 2006 at 12:19 PM
Fortunately, Foghorn, you keep your feathers numbered...faw just such an emergency.
Posted by: blurk | August 31, 2006 at 12:20 PM
Oh, lordy - Paul Michael Glazer - dreamy!!! I even found I still had the hots for him when he did a cameo on the Owen Wilson / Ben Stiller re-make
Posted by: kitten | August 31, 2006 at 12:20 PM
yeah...Pete??
never was a Donny fan...too d@mn cheery for me, I always liked the brooding (sp?) type
Posted by: Gypsysoul66 | August 31, 2006 at 12:20 PM
Siouxie, here's a little trivia question for ya then. Why did Carol tug on her ear at the end of every show?
1,000 blog points are at stake.
Posted by: blurk | August 31, 2006 at 12:21 PM
mud, I wanted to grow up and be like Emma Pee or agent 99 (a cool female spy-type).
Posted by: Siouxie | August 31, 2006 at 12:22 PM
Speaking of hicks, what about Gomer Pyle? Do you suppose he ever came out?
