Update on Ambush

I called my vet in Tennessee for a second opinion on the way in to work this morning. She said it is possible that another vet could hear a murmur that she missed. She also suggested getting a second opinion: 80% of the cats she diagnoses with murmurs really don’t require much treatment because it isn’t affecting the cats. She usually suggests to the owners that they go to UT vet hospital to...

Blood Ties Scripts

The script supervisor from Blood Ties is selling her scripts on eBay. If you want a piece of an incredible TV series, here is the chance. Kinda sad seeing these scripts on eBay. Reading the item description is depressing–especially if you have been wanting a second season. Related Images:

Before Ambush was brought out, I was asked if I knew he...

It’s the first time I’ve uploaded one.)...

Political Correctness in Tennessee

This is a joke from a friend of mine. Due to the climate of political correctness now pervading America, Kentuckians, Tennesseans and West Virginians will no longer be referred to as ‘HILLBILLIES.’ You must now refer to them as APPALACHIAN-AMERICANS . And furthermore HOW TO SPEAK ABOUT WOMEN AND BE POLITICALLY CORRECT: 1. She is not a ‘BABE’ or a ‘CHICK’ – She is a ‘BREASTED AMERICAN.’ 2. She is not ‘EASY’ –...
