Fluff & Nonsense
No, seriously. Phil Pfister, the 2006 World’s Strongest Man, is my BFF.
Which explains why when I attended a pinning ceremony for nursing graduates in the big city this weekend and came across the Strongman at the event, first I grabbed a pic of his butt. Then I got the back of his head. Then his butt again.
Finally all the stalking paid off! Doughnut in hand, despite his busy schedule of running with telephone poles and turning over cars, he stopped mid-munch to have his picture taken with me! Yes, really, he turns over cars.
If he hadn’t had to finish that doughnut, I’m sure he would have carried me around on his shoulders for a minute. Or picked me up with his pinky. Cuz we are tight, I’m telling you, tight.

State road workers were dispatched early Wednesday evening when a tree fell, blocking a major one-lane thoroughfare in Roane County. The tree, described as “giant” by one resident, created the worst traffic jam in the area in recent memory. At least 10 vehicles were involved in the massive pileup, including two school busses. The tree came down shortly before 5 PM in the curve past the farm where they just built that new barn. Workers used power saws to cut up the giant tree. It took several men to push the logs off the road.
