For all my fellow Tennesseans, past and present...

My mom just emailed me this:

Due to the popularity of the Survivor show, Tennessee is planning to do its own, entitled............ "Survivor-Tennessee Style."

The contestants will start in Jackson, travel up to Big Sandy and on to Grinders Switch and Hohenwald. Then they will head over to Pulaski and down to Fayetteville and over to Monteagle. From there they will proceed up to Tracy City, then back around through Rock Island, Smithville,.....and finally end up in Carthage.

Each will be driving a pink Volvo with Yankee license plates and a large bumper sticker that reads: "I'm gay. I'm a vegetarian. Beer is harmful to your health. The Vols suck. Vote YES for an income tax. Deer hunting is murder, and I'm here to confiscate your guns!"

The first one that makes it to Carthage alive, wins.

Good luck to all contestants.

Gunner reported that one a few weeks back on the Knoxville country station. Though he added something in about "Anti-War" and "Osama is my Friend" for the bumper stickers.

And while it's amusing at face value, I don't think it's that funny. It makes all Tennesseans as intolerant.... though even I wouldn't volunteer for that assignment.... not for all the money in the world!! ;o)

I actually think Tennesseans are better than many of our neighbors... though watching the idiocy going on in the state the past few years, I'm no longer so sure.

I do have to agree with that!
