Forget Mexico!

We've got a border dispute right here in the great state of Tennessee and I could not be more amused by our Mayor's response.



Mayor Littlefield, will you marry me?

Many thanks to Jacquelyn for drawing this proclamation to my attention.

  1. As an Atlanta'ite, I found it all very amusing. Kind of embarrassing really, but I laughed when I heard the news.

  2. If I get this story straight, Georgia wants to move North 2 miles, if they do that, and Tennessee follows suit, and moves North 2 miles, then, I've got to get my birth certificate changed, I'll be a Native Tennessee Boy just like Davie Crockett!!!! this is the best News I've ever heard, no more jokes about being a redneck from Kentucky!!....Oh, wait, then I'd be a redneck from.........TENNESSEE....AAAGH!!!!

  3. Why can't we elect a stand-up comedian type mayor up here in Kenosha? I first heard about this border dispute last Sunday in our UU church. We had a guest speaker--from some eco-group in Chicago--who talked about the water supply issue from both moral and political viewpoints. In my ignorance, I thought that the only water supply problems were in states with deserts.

  4. Reading the "whereas" sections gave me the chills. Was he feebly trying to be funny or was that supposed to be an example of fine wit? Either way, very amusing!

  5. Ronnie, Ronnie, He's our Man, If he can't do it - nobody can! Where was the Georgia legislature when Atlanta's growth was booming and there needed to be some planning for it?
