Way to go, Ziggy!
Lori Mize, my favorite Teamster, has finally made the big time. It doesn't get any bigger than your picture in Knox Views. :)
Fav Teamster
I owe my 15 minutes of fame to you, Bob for turning me onto Knoxviews. Thanks!
Dang, I hate that I spelled
Dang, I hate that I spelled her name wrong but Lori and Kelly were fantastic last weekend. Hope to see them again this weekend.
wrong spelling
you will see us again this weekend, Trace! And, trust me, I have been called worse!
cookies
Just wanted to share a little joke that's making the rounds:
"A public union employee, a tea party activist, and a CEO are sitting at a table with a plate of a dozen cookies in the middle of it.
The CEO takes 11 cookies, turns to the tea partier and says, 'Watch out for that union guy. He wants a piece of your cookie.' "
