One solution to our foreign oil problem...Just don't supply it...

For those who don't read or watch the news, Atlanta has no gas...Well, limited gas. Hurricane Ike messed up some the refineries that supply the SE with gas. So since last week, it's been a bad deal around the southeast. It's actually pretty crazy...Amanda and I waited for about 30 minutes last night to get gas. We saw almost one fight after one dude cut in line...Crazy stuff...

So tonight, we had to take some pics to show our friends who don't live here...This line must have been at least an hour long tonight.

Rocky Top

I greatly apologize on my tardiness on the blog but I’ve been kind of busy with a whole bunch of stuff. I have several things that I want to write about so I need to get on the stick...

So here ya go…

Friday, late in the afternoon the boss man said “Yes or no, do you want tickets to the Tennessee game tomorrow?”

Me: “Give me a sec”…”How many?”

Boss: “Four”

A couple of phone calls and arm twisting later, it was on. Knoxville or bust to watch a team that I really don’t root for but who cares, I’ve never been to a college football game much less a SEC game.

So Amanda, Nay Nay, The Doche and I headed up at about 7am on Sat. morning. The drive to Knoxville was pretty chill and we got there about 20 minutes before game time. Of course, Amanda had to patronize a local bookstore and get all oranged out. Like I just said, I’ve never been to a college football game so going to one of the biggest stadiums in the country was incredible. The amount of orange that I saw that day will be forever be engrained into my brain. It was crazy. I can’t imagine what would have happened if I went to such a big school.

The game was awesome and we had great seats. Tennessee ended up putting a spank down on Arkansas so people were pretty pumped. After the game, we headed back South. On the way back, we watched about 10 episodes of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia on my new toy…Covered in the next post…

Team Spirit

Ridiculous amounts of orange
