Hi guys, I have been away from the forum for a couple days, just played a Bluegrass festival in Mississippi with Jim and Jessie and the Virginia Boys, and I saw and heard some of the funniest stuff I've ever been around! Did you know that these guys blew the top off a mountain in West Virginia with 60 sticks of TNT just to have some excitement when they were kids? (there was no TV then)Then there was the time when George Morgan (Lori's father to all you newbies), was treated very badly by the motel staff in New Jersey, so to get his revenge just before check out time, he sent one of the band members out to a food wholesaler, and bought 10 cases of jello mix. They filled all their bath tubs and sinks with water, and mixed in the jello mix, and took the remainder, which was enough, and put it in the motel swimming pool. Can you imagine diving into a pool of jello? They then checked in to a ajoining motel and watched the clean up for hours from their new vantage point. I never thought to ask him were you throw away a swimming pool full of jello! Then there are my early George Jones stories, will leave these along with the Johnny Paycheck and Farron Young stories for the book I am being coarsed into writing. I thank all of you very much in your proding me in this direction, even you RetCop. I might do a chapter on you (HA HA!).
