By and large, Better Half and I do not make it into downtown Knoxville very often; neither of us are overly fond of cities, I do not like driving on confined streets, and the parking situation down there… well, it is a topic for another post, especially since I just …
If you live in the greater Knoxville area, can afford to take off a few days / all of the next week, and have any kind of home-building-related skills at all, Extreme Makeover Home Edition would very much like to borrow you. Alternatively, if you can provide any of …
If you live in the greater Knoxville metropolitan area, you should do yourself a favor and head to the brand new Academy Sports + Outdoors store that just opened at 145 Moss Grove Boulevard (right across Kingston Pike from the Home Depot by Cedar Bluff).
My schedule has been absolutely crazy of late, and shows no indications of letting up any time soon, so I have not had the opportunity to go down and take a look at Coal Creek Armory‘s new Outpost in Kingston. Thankfully, Brick did exactly that, and shares with us …
According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association, this is a plot of all hurricanes and hurricane-looking things that have passed within 100 statute miles of Knoxville as far back as they have data (the very late 1800s, apparently):
Coal Creek Armory is opening a new location 1 mile off I-40 on Gallaher Road in Kingston TN! The new location will offer everything our Knoxville store has
In the course of one run down and one run back, I had no fewer than ten separate squids attempt to commit suicide on my hood and/or A-pillar, either by passing into oncoming traffic (namely, me), or having the tires …
Last night, hundreds – if not thousands – of Knox County and Knoxville residents violated county laws and city ordinances while detonating more fireworks than I could reasonably guess the value of.
Speaking as someone who did not drink in college and does not generally drink when out of the house, and thus someone who invariably ends up as the designated driver, I wish I had come up with Zingo; but regardless of its ownership, it is still a damned good …
As previously mentioned, I will not be at the Lucky Gunner shoot this weekend, for a variety of reasons. I will, however, (probably) be at the get-together being organized for this Friday, and since a few folks have already asked me some questions, I thought I would post this …
First thing this morning, as Better Half and I were getting ready to head out to work, we looked outside, and it was snowing. Not enough for it to stick, what with the 37 degree temperature outside, but there were flakes accumulating on our deck and cars. Snowing. In …
In case you were curious what you missed out on, both Brick and Les Jones have their Knoxville Shooty Shindig reports up. I had been planning on doing one of these about every other month, but with the LuckyGunner.com Blogger Shoot at the end of May, I might have to …
So the final tally after people bowing out due to illnesses and work was Brick, Les Jones, Rich, Lissa, and myself at the range, with Liston Matthews (briefly), Michael J. Mollenhour, and Better Half joining us at the restaurant… not a bad turnout, all things …
Ok, so maybe the graphic is not as whiz-bang awesome as somefolks‘, but at least it gets the point across (feel free to yoink it and spread it around).
As previously mentioned (and made doubly-clear above), I am working on organizing a Knoxville-area blogger/commenter/reader/lurker get-together at Coal Creek …
Apparently I should have listened to that nagging little voice…
