Go to Augusta, hang a right and come on down because you're the next contestant on the Price is Right.

Well, Diane, Gib...Vivian and I may be going to Augusta for a few days in December. Would be nice to meet you both.

Bro. Tony, we live minutes off I-20 24 miles from Ala. Coming this way? </font>[/QUOTE]I really don't know, Diane. Vivian will be driving. I'll have to check with her. She hasn't completed the list of things to do yet.

 

[dianetavegia]

Check your route! Depends on where you are in Tennessee. I'd love to meet in person!

Diane

 

[AVL1984]

We live in Murfreesboro, just 35 miles S,SE of Nashville on I-24. We usually come down I-20 to I-75 to I-20 and go straight through Atlanta instead of taking the bypass.

 

[Gib]

I'll send my private bus for you and you can come to me. It will be easy to spot. It has a dog painted on the side.

 

[AVL1984]

LOL...I don't need a bus..I've got a chauffer, my wife. Since I don't drive much because of the vertigo and constant unsteadiness caused by my ears, she drives me around (scares me to death, too!...LOL) and makes sure I get where I need to go.
My last measure of freedom, gone.

 

[dianetavegia]

I'm guessing 25 miles out of your way, Tony. Think about it! I'd offer to meet you somewhere but I have 7 kids to watch on different days, times, etc. LOL

 

[AVL1984]

If it's only that far out of the way, Vivian might be able to allow it. She's usually a "straight shot" driver, but sometimes she makes allowances.

It's also going to depend on whether or not the doc releases me for travel. I called yesterday about going to Indiana to see my birth dad, and he said "NO! Boy don't you know that will be too hard on your system right now?" I'm still trying to recover from those blood transfusions, and was told yesterday that I might still need more. YUK! I'll find out on Nov 30th.

 

[Dr. Bob]

Will they let you out of the home that long, Tony? We're just glad they let you have a computer for a few minutes each day.

Say hello to Nurse Rached for me . . .

 

[AVL1984]

LOL...Dr. Bob, she says she knew you when you were just cave people together back a Bedrock High with Fred, Barney, Wilma and Betty, and that you drove a pretty nice dinosaur back then!

 

[dianetavegia]

LOL, so how old is Bro. TONY anyhow? I know Dr. Bob is a little older than me but younger than Sue. In fact, I think Dr. Bob is younger than my hubby!

 

[AVL1984]

I'm only 42, Diane. But, I'm an "OLD" 42...LOL
I've been married over 20 years to my GA Peach, Vivian!

 

[Gib]

Yea, but how long were you living together before you got married?

 

[AVL1984]

Never, Gib. She lived with her Grandparents and I lived in an apartment.

 

[Dr. Bob]

GIB! I'm ashamed of you. How long has it been since you stopped beating your wife?

 

[AVL1984]

I was sort of shocked that he asked that question, too. But, in this day and age, and even back 20+ years ago, it's hard to tell, so I didn't take offense at it....but I would like to know when Gib stopped beating his wife, too.

 

[AVL1984]

Diane & Gib...we don't get to go to GA for Thanksgiving. Would have like to come down and met you both. All in the Lord's timing.

 

[Gib]

I did make it a point to stop beating my 1st wife.

 

[dianetavegia]

LOLOL You guys!

Jim has stopped beating me. Yep... gave it up a LONG time ago.

Tony, I'll be 54 on Dec. 29th but I keep thinking I'm a lot younger. We've been married 34 years.

About Gib... he lived with Cheryl before he married Cheryl. Tsk.. Tsk... Tsk..... And wait til he tells you how mixed up his family really IS!

 

[Jim1999]

There is a law still in existence in London, England, that a man may not beat his wife after 9M...........note, it is not to prevent wife beating, but it is a noise violation......I wonder, if a man padded his fists and gagged his wife, could he then beat his wife?

Cheers,

Jim
