Na, but my cousin said she's never been more attracted to me. She works down at the Piggly Wiggly in Clarkrange, TN. Just ask for Bernadette, she'll wave and show off that gingivitis she's got.

Firstly, that explains a lot... :)

2nd, I have no idea. Just thought of the most redneck place I could think of.

3rd, 2 of my best friends graduated from Clarkrange

Forgot about the test date, so got a 27 with a hangover...was gonna retake it but found out that score would get me into UT.

That was 1980. I think the hangover kept me from being neevous about the ACT :)

Seemed to work out ok.

Almost exactly the same story except:

A 26...

In 1984...

And Tn Tech...

Our guidance counselors were idiots at Clinton. They never told me I SHOULD take it again to possibly qualify for scholarships. That actually worked out ok, though. I would have lost all financial aid anyway. I was much better at the extra curricular activities.

you are probably familiar with Rinnie then... i grew up there. the dividing line between clarkrange (fentress county) and Rinnie (Cumberland county) is Clear creek. Many of my family were baptized there.

My Grandfather used to drive us to church in Grimsley, just past Clarkrange, in a 1976 green Plymouth Valiant, across the Rinnie Stretch, every sunday. Ive been 148 mph down that road once.. lol

Grew up off Elmore if youre familiar... youd turn right at The Store coming from your direction... just past Bear Creek rd.

Ill say one thing about Clarkrange, those folks are serious about some basketball. And yes, its still Swaffords.
