    Tennessee Vols is called the volunteers because Tennessee is a state of civil war and when the civil war was going on they volunteered people to come to the civil war kind of like Davy Crockett and Daniel Boone and I think you should do an episode on it.

    One of the lines I remember from Designing Women was when one of the characters, I think it might have been Delta Burke, referred to the French university, the Sorbonne, in a lovely thick southern accent, as the Sore Buns. They had funny dialogue to entertain all ages on that show, even kids, by including silly butt jokes. lol

She was great too but she needs to take care of herself first. I wonder if she'll make a comeback. Annie Potts has been acting for so long from Pretty in Pink to The new Ghostbusters movie and Young Sheldon! Not sure about the blonde actress Jean Smart.

I started watching some of the things that she would do some of the interviews and stuff that she would do. It took her a long time to lose the weight. And she has refused to do any TV or movie shows after that.

    I remember that show Designing Women from the middle 1980s which I only saw the previews on TV, but I never watched any of the shows back then!
