    - Graceland/Sun Studio/Zoo was a fun weekend. -- nm - Spawn Jul 14, 11:12
    - the most notable thing about Graceland is how NOT big it actually is. -- nm - Andie Jul 14, 11:08 1
      - Heh, we thought the same thing. - spamlet Jul 14, 11:10
- It's 6 hours from us and we're *in* TN. It's only two hours longer to go to my parents' house in Illinois. -- nm - Dark Callisto Jul 14, 10:54
- Tennessee is long. -- nm - spamlet Jul 14, 10:51 3
  - That's what Georgia said. -- nm - sycor Jul 14, 11:46
  - Would you also say it's strong....and down to get some friction on? -- nm - JaxSean Jul 14, 10:58 1
