Appalachian Intellectual. To me that means plain thinking. I am A Non Commissioned Officer in the Army Reserves. Let me say...My views expressed here are mine and not those of The U.S. Army, Army Reserve or my fellow brethren in The National Guard. This is entirely Sua Sponte. This is My Thinking. I'm single and in my mid 30's. Politicaly, I'm a Libertarian. (Again, Sua Sponte.I do not represent the Libertarian Party.)I love my native Appalachia, Rock n Roll and...I love God.
I started blogging for two reasons. I was concerned about the changes to the area I live in, Southern Appalachia and I was about to go to the war. I was in Iraq in 06 and 07 and now Kuwait in 11 and 12. Blogging was a means of documenting my experiences and hoping it would help gain clarity. I don't feel that way about it any more. It's said people write blogs because they are frustrated, that's why people read them too. That makes us sound apocalyptic. Are we? Let it be said, what I say here is of my own thinking. This is entirely Sua Sponte and not an official representation of the U.S. Military or the U.S. Government as a whole.

I guess money is only a concern when it involves a 36 year old case.
Well, it might be the FBI's too busy folks who click on the wrong kind of link.
I don't like child p*rno purveyors or viewers and consider them lower than whale sh*t, but somehow that seems like a questionable technique by the Feds.
Today I drove around Cades Cove and through the Smokies and didn't see D. B. Cooper anywhere. It was a beautiful day . . . the light was just right and the "smoke" drifted up from the wooded hills and mountains in a way that would have made anyone looking at the sky sigh at the loveliness of it all. It really was all of that . . . . and more. Take care, Bill
From DB Cooper to child porn to Smokey Mountian skies. AI, you gotta love the wandering paths your posts take. Well, not the posts themselves, but the comments from the bunch that follows them.
Well, when I clicked on the quote, it took me to an article on the parachute found in Washington State that reminded of D. B. Cooper. My friend, the Appalachianist, is interested in the Appalachian. The Smokies being one of the many pretty places in the Appalachians is, I think, of great interest to the Appalachianist, so I wanted to convey how beautiful Cades Cove was on Friday. It was special and in the words of a favorite children's story, "just right!" How many places in the world are so blessed. Trying to find a place like that is like trying to find D. B. Cooper. It is so hard to do, and you guys have managed to do it. Just braggin' on all you all. It's a Southern thing. Take care. Bill Sipes, SFC RET USAR
I do love Southern things SFC Bill! Today I am going to an Oystah Roast. Should be a good one...lots of fellowship, good food, live sing along music, and spirits...even have a veranda and a fire pit out back. It's gonna be an all night'er. Gotta love it.
I hope ol DB survived and spent his 200 thou. With all the things going on in this crazy world that is all the FBI has to worry about? Disturbing. Two hundred thousand these days may as well be $5.00 so let it go and move on to more important concerns. Like Islamic psychos controlling the internet w/death threats and people being ok w/that...defending them in doing so. Now that concerns me. Interesting freedom of speech is losing. Scary.
App give up on the self-imposed exile. You simply needed to sit a spell and rest. You know you miss us and we miss you....so just write when you feel like it. We will be here. I still find myself in the habit of checking on my Hillbilly just in case the blog break is over. Trust me, there is no other blog like yours out there, personally I don't care much for them, but yours is very special and unique and so are your readers. That is why I check in.
Are you going to see the DBT tonight? I hope so. Nothing like shaking a leg to some live music to lift the heart and mind. I see it's sold out. I did not make it to Richmond, wanted to go but simply didn't work out. One day I will see them.
Happy Saturday!

If you follow the link, while you're there notice that down and to the right is an article about a man arrested for having sex with a picnic table. How many times do people have to be told - If it has 4 legs DON'T SCREW IT!
I was doin' all right until I got to "ramblin' ed" and then I fell off the stool (three-legged) and commenced to laughin' about what seemed to be good advice. Pappy never told me that . . . I guess we just didn't live that far in the country . . . we were educated like "aheartfromtheblueridge" . . .our house even had a veranda . . . (I know . . . it doesn't make any sense, but it might be a lot better if you stayed on the porch when you saw one of those good lookin' four-legged critters.) It has been cold and damp in Coulumbia, S.C.
You'll, diversity is the spice of blogging.
HA! Jimmy Kimmel covered the picnic table sex, he wants the video!
Yes, we love our veranda's and our picnic tables, just not in that special way...as in lust them. Crazy, crazy people. I would rather hear about a picnic table than an animal being his victim....that would upset me.
Parachutes and Currency--your title reminds me of the scene in Catch 22, where they'd sold their parachutes for the silk, giving the flight crews shares of stock instead...
