just a few things.

TACO-BET? Sounds like an AOL Free Trial password!

[cruise_elroy]

anyway, how do you pronounce it, Miss Smarty Pants?

TACO-BET!!!

i like words with the word "taco" in them.. tacosis

[cruise_elroy]

Are there any others? Really, come to think of it, I doubt the veracity of this word, "tacosis."

Collinsville is might(il)y close to Crossville, which is where I spent two-fifths of what some would call "life" (I call it that as well, I suppose, though "wet lump of coal" seems just as applicable).

[cruise_elroy]

two fifths? Don't worry; that ratio will shrink.

[circumgoy]

Just like my soul.

attalla (exit right after gadsden) has an entire town square of kitschy junk shops. i love going there!

[cruise_elroy]

Thanks Julia! I'll check it out. It seems like I had some other reason for wanting to go to Gadsden recently, although I don't have any idea WHAT that could have been.

[johnnystiletto]

there is one store there so chock full of junky crap, and i found a MEISTER BRAU beer sign for like 10 bucks.

talladega has a pretty good chunk of antique stores in its square as well, but it's not as choice as attalla.

have you guys been to unclaimed baggage center in scottsboro?

[johnnycirrhosis]

unclaimed baggage has changed.
they found out that they have neat stuff and raised the prices
