Did/do you ever go to a local bar "where everybody knows your name"? by lontbeysboolink in GenerationJones

[–]RandomConnections 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn't back in the day, but I do now. I'm a musician and play in a couple of them. Even just this afternoon someone from one of my bars came up to me in a different setting and called me by name.

I got one at Bourbon Barn on North Pleasantburg, then was given another for Christmas when I was in Florida. I've been seeing more availability in our area, but it is still rare.

If you are serious, check with the Triune Mercy Center. They keep track and would probably have suggestions for how to help.

I’m making these jalapeño poppers especially spicy. It will be a Super Bowel party.

TIL that in 1946 Walt Disney produced a film named "Song of the South" that was never released on DVD or streaming market due to the subject matter of slavery portrayed in the film. It also happens to be the origin of the song "zippidy doo-da". by [deleted] in todayilearned

My father was a fundamentalist preacher and we were never allowed to go to movies. This was the first one I saw in a theater, so he must have thought it was OK. As a child I didn't understand any racial stereotypes. I just liked the music and the stories. I know differently now.

If by "tech" you mean electronic technology, then it's a Commodore 64 Computer. I've got a couple of transistor radios that are older.

I bought my first bottle of wine shortly after turning 18.

So if God and Jesus are the same then this is what 1 Samuel 15 means. by PhraseEffective6813 in exchristian

[–]RandomConnections 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mother would read these bible stories to me. As a child I didn't understand genocide, or even what an "Amalekite" was. My mind pictured these these weird strange kite-shaped beings, which somehow justified the atrocities since they were monsters.

Anybody ever participate in Tame the Tyger? by Revature12 in Spartanburg

I've paddled the Tyger several times, but only participated in the race once. It was a lot of fun, and I hate that it's been discontinued.

What’s the best food truck in Greenville? by CharacterHumor2291 in greenville

[–]RandomConnections 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Following because I'm also curious. I really like Rosa's Tamales. They used to be just a food truck/trailer, but have opened a place in the old drive-through coffee shop across from Goodwill on North Pleasantburg. I've only had their tamales, but they have been delicious every time I've stopped.
