**Stuffy** , don’t take this the wrong way, but if you _ **ever bring these people to Tennessee…!!!** _ :mad: :mad: :smack: :smack:

Last September, our apartment caught fire. We all got out fine, and are back in the restored apartment. Sorry, no funny story to go along with it, at least it wasn’t our fault.

For everyobody offering beer, let me know when you’re in town, regretfully I’ll have to leave my family at home 😃

_WHAT!_

Oh boy don’t start me about Reno, man! I was ticketed there for doing 35 mph in a 15 mph zone on **New Year’s Night** when I could have been going 450 mph and not hit anyone. The wonderful municipality of Reno, NV was going to fine me $250! I actually took the time to _drive from SF Bay Area to Reno_ to fight this, and got it reduced to $75.

If anyone is interested in Reno, the wonderful city, I suggest they go down to the Reno Municipal Court. That part of the megalopolis is a real garden spot.  
:rolleyes:

Eh, it [could have been worse.](http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/RTGAM.20040719.wxweddning19/BNStory/National/)

(Although I doubt it could have been related in a more amusing fashion.)

I think we could make A LOT of money by bringing **Stuffy** and **Bear\_Nenno** ’s families together in a reality TV type situation. Think _Jerry Springer_ on steroids. One week they could all go to a nice restaurant together. The next week maybe a hunting trip :o ! After that the obligatory _COPS_ episode. This is a money making machine just waiting to happen. If too many members of one family are killed or convicted we can have guest family appearances from other Doper families. Whaddya say?
