I got an e-mail from our beloved TN*hippie which goes as follows:
So how about every Doper who knows and loves out Limerick master send him something nice to help him bide the time in the slammer?
For the record, he is in jail for some driving-related things, and he is using the time there to dry out from his alcoholism. While I know he is not happy about this, and I as an online admirer was disappointed, he is looking at this philosophically and is using the time to do something positive. And this is not a bad thing.
*I HAVE BEEN SMOKE-FREE FOR:
Five months, two days, 14 hours, 57 minutes and 34 seconds.
6224 cigarettes not smoked, saving $778.11.
Extra life with Drain Bead: 3 weeks, 14 hours, 40 minutes.

Poor hippie, he went to jail–
He decided he would not post bail.
He’ll prolly get bored
and feel quite ignored
So send the poor mofo some mail.
-OR-
Our friend’s driving booboos were rife,
So he’ll give up some days of his life.
So send him a letter,
make him feel much better,
And pray he won’t come back a wife.
ONE MORE…
Jail’s not exactly his niche.
They might have him digging a ditch.
There’ll be Hell in the shower,
but just think of the power
If somehow he could make them HIS bitch.
Can we get some clarification on correct address to send TN*hippie letters? His thread “Bye Y’all” states the address is: 5400 Maloneyville Road, but Satan has 5001 Maloneyville Road.
Hippie got into a mess,
and decided to give in, I guess.
He asked for some letters,
but the mail works much better
When we’re given the right damn address.
You all lack imagination, or a cats sense of fun (cruelty)…send him a really good page turning book, one that will hook him completely…and tear out the last chapter.
Well, yee-ikes, or as James Brown sez, That’s Life… After being disconnected from y’all by a literal proverbial lightning bolt frying my modem, the first click elicits this sad news. My Beloved TNHipp, the first soul to ever communicate to me on this board, smack dab in the slammer. Please clarify the address, cuz I gotta send that boy some biscuits.
It’s the Internet, folks. Under my local “yellow pages” link that you can find on most any commercial home page (I happen to use msn.com) I typed in “Jail” and “Knoxville, TN”. and was given the phone number for the knox county jail. One quick phone call later (*“I have an odd question for you… is there another jail in Knoxville with an address on Maloneyville Road”? “Yes, that would be the detention center, on 5001 Maloneyville Road…” *
Hang in there TN*hippie. Now that we got this confusion mopped up, we’ll be sendin’ ya lots of ‘stuff’.
Just confirming Enright’s info–according to my e-mail from TN*hippie, it’s 5001. Please write to him and encourage him. Make him laugh–he’s a great guy!
Anyone know where I can get a greeting card-sized sheet of blotter acid?
