We have a porch for baseball and for our daughter’s graduation did a Veuve theme. Veuve is the perfect color for a Tennessee graduation. Everyone liked it just fine!No problem. I’m not a Champaign connoisseur. But my dad used to own a liquor store, and he gave me a bottle for our wedding almost 17 years ago. It was the best I had ever had. That’s what I buy for people because I’ve actually had it.
I was there (from AZ).Starting on May 1 back in 1982, the “world came to Knoxville.”
From May until October that year, more than 11 million people from across the globe embraced the cultures of 22 countries in Knoxville for the World’s Fair.

I watched a pretty good one last night, Coherence. It's from 2014. It's about this group of friends that get together for a dinner party on a night whenever a comet is passing by, very close to earth. Very strange things start happening. It was pretty good.Been a minute since any movie discussions...
Rewatched The Iron Claw last night, such a great film...still disappointed it didn't get any Oscar nominations. Biggest complaint was a few casting choices, but otherwise great film
Saw Sinners in IMAX opening weekend, it was just an overall well executed film. Didn't reinvent the wheel or anything for the genres or story but all aspects of it were just top level. I think the acting and cinematography stood out the most for me, but the sound design, music, and editing were also well done. Won't be surprised if it gets a lot of Oscar attention.
Black Bag though might be my current favorite film for 2025 a terrible box office performance though which is so weird based on what the film is and who was in it...but no big action pieces or huge star power either. Short film though at just over 90 minutes well paced, well acted and filmed great. Biggest complaint I've seen is dialogue heavy so not a film you wanna watch distracted as a lot of it can be missed if not listening to the dialogue.
Meh, I lived there my whole life and never had anything stolen from me until I moved to Nashville.That's why I only drive a beater when I go to Grundy, a lot of vehicles end up at those "auctions."

Within the last couple of months I've watched Bates Motel and Taboo, with Tom Hardy. Enjoyed both, very much, especially Bates Motel. Vera Farmiga and Freddy Highmore are absolutely brilliant.
There are a lot of good people up on the mountain. My son is marrying a girl from up there. Newer vehicles have put a damper on on the national pastime of Grundy that is for sure.Meh, I lived there my whole life and never had anything stolen from me until I moved to Nashville.
Right now, I wouldn’t call it an exaggeration to say there is a drug use crisis in the region. People are dying and it’s very sad.
Just like anywhere else, lots of good people and lots of bad people. The good ones are some of the best people you will ever meet.
SAS would be very disappointed in you all btw
