USVI-On-Line

Okay, I've seen a gazillion people on the forum (okay, maybe a small exaggeration) from New Jersey, Virginia, California, Wisconsin - everywhere but TN. Where are all the Tennesseans? Is there anyone lurking out there? Are Bandit and I it?

Bandit, looks like you and I have to carry our state alone..... think we can do her proud?

It feels so lonely....

don't feel lonely you are with family here

No. But I get the idea that we are from the same "neck of the woods." It's a long state, as states go. I think we're from the same end. That means something to Tennesseans. If there were others on this forum, they'd get it.

See, Waterguy, I'm feeling lonely again.

Don't feel bad there are only about 4 of us in Louisiana. I try to make up for the lack of people by the amount of time I spend on here!

And I am directly related to 3 of us (sister, self and hubby).

I think you are smart Vicki...very smart!

And yes there is at least one lurker/occasional poster out there from Tennessee that I know of but none from the (insert 3 letter expletive here _ _ _)end of the state.

Then again, why would anyone from Mem-phus be on here anyway? Maybe you aren't as smart as I first thought!

Okay, Bandit, let's see how smart YOU are. Here is a TN test. If you are from where you want me to think you are from, you should know where I am from. My county is known for its tomatoes. Any ideas?

I beg to disagree! Creoles are the best tomatoes around!

Chattanooga here.

Hmmm, Bandit, either that was a lucky guess, quick internet research or you REALLY are from a small rural town in TN northeast of Knoxville (I'm not sure I'm convinced). Yep. Rutledge it is. I live on Cherokee. I always say I am from Knoxville though. Don't we all? (I do work in Knoxville, so is it really a lie? ) No one knows where "Rutledge" is and it sounds so countrified. At least I don't have to say I'm from "Bean Station, TN." That's where my husband was born and raised. First time he told me where he was from, I thought he made it up.

Hey BenChill - thanks for coming out and supporting TN! We have good friends that live in Chattanooga, so we are down there quite a bit. Great city. I'd love to see Knoxville make some of the changes Chattanooga has. We are headed that way, but we are far behind! I went to Lee University (back in the day when it was Lee College), so I lived over your way for a few years.
