You should check out The Hangover. It was hilarious, definitely the best comedy of 09.
I'd like to visit some clean beach in Mexico/Puerto Rico/Costa Rica that doesn't have lots of people.

Have you ever met someone or knew someone who was related to somebody famous? I used to work with a girl who was distantly related to Sandra Bullock. I met a girl once who told me she was distantly related to Chuck Norris, and I knew somebody who was a direct descendant of General Robert E. Lee.

In tie with Cuck Norris, would you rather take a roundhouse kick to the face or a punch in the face from Chuck?

[CieraSL]

Re: Answer and ask game.

What kind of a question is that? Uh, I guess a punch to the face. Probably wouldn't hurt as bad.

Have you ever met anybody famous? I've met James Rogers (now a one man show at Dollywood), Ron Hamilton (aka Patch the Pirate) when I was like 4, and Michael Blackburn (an American sharpshooter). When I used to go to church (haven't been in a few years) we had some of our state senators and representatives there on occasion. The following article is about Michael Blackburn in case you don't know who he is.

"Tennessee’s world-class marksman dies in Atlanta

WEARS VALLEY – The Tennessee and American sports community was stunned last week to learn that world-class exhibition shooter and marksman Robert Michael Blackburn had passed away suddenly in Atlanta on April 29.

According to medical examiner reports, the Wears Valley resident was returning home from Alabama on Interstate 285 when he started feeling seizures coming on and pulled to the side of the interstate. His wife immediately telephoned emergency personnel who transported Blackburn to South Fulton Regional Medical Center where he was later pronounced dead. Blackburn allegedly suffered from a seizure disorder for a number of years and the official cause of death reported by the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s office was a seizure disorder of unknown origin. The Wears Valley resident was laid to rest in the Smoky Mountain Memory Gardens with graveside services last Saturday. Michael Blackburn leaves behind a wife and daughter.
Blackburn was known throughout America as one of the greatest exhibition shooters with rifle, shotgun and handgun, even holding a spot in Guinness’ Book of World Records for the smallest target ever hit by a firearm. He was also an adamant supporter of the Second Amendment and, when once tested by a crusading reporter on national television who insinuated to Blackburn he was a gun fanatic who believed everyone should own a firearm, the marksman stole the reporter’s thunder when he replied: "I know many people who shouldn’t be allowed to own a firearm, but everyone should know how to use them."

The 51-year-old was born in Salem, Ill. on July 29, 1950 and developed a love for the shooting sports while still a child. He came from a long line of sportsmen that could be traced back to his great-great-great grandfather, who was regarded as one of Illinois premier gunsmiths.
Robert Blackburn’s skill with firearms in competitions quickly drew the attention of some of the nation’s best firearms experts and he began touring on the profession circuit. He made his first national appearance during a competition in St. Louis, MO when an NBC television crew taped him doing some of his remarkable feats. He would later go on to do a stint with ESPN, but left the national sports network over a financial dispute and went back on the road performing for audiences across the nation. He skill would later earn him a sponsorship from some of America’s most prominent firearm and ammunition manufacturers, including the Remington Firearms Company.
His love of firearms and his abilities thrilled crowds of all ages. While vacationing in East Tennessee as a young man, he fell in love with the Smoky Mountains and eventually moved to Wears Valley where he could enjoy the peace and quiet. He was a consummate shooter who was known for spending hours at a time practicing when he wasn’t traveling on the road. He always regarded his talent and skill as an American tradition, even once remarking: "I’d just like to leave my name in American history. I’d like to be remembered as one of the best exhibition shooters ever - remembered as a good guy, as a straight shooter."
Rocky Top Outfitters owner Greg Ward was among those shocked to hear the news of his death. Ward has a target in his shop from one of Blackburn’s competitions where the Wears Valley resident shot a perfect bulls-eye with a nine-shot cartridge from a 12 gauge shotgun, earning him a perfect score.

"Michael Blackburn was truly one of the greatest marksmen in the nation," said Ward. "He would go out with his firearms, set up targets and literally spend all day shooting and making up shots that would entertain people. His using the reflection off of a bowie knife to nail a bulls-eye was one of his best exhibition techniques that would get applause every time he did it."
He was also a featured guest on the Dixie Angler Radio Network and a close friend with program host Lloyd Daugherty. The two even taped a video pilot in the 1990s.
"I considered Michael Blackburn a good friend and he was undoubtedly the best hand with a gun I had ever seen," said Daugherty. "He was a huge bear of a man that was as gentle as a lamb and great with children. You would have to see him to believe how much natural talent he possessed with firearms. He will be sorely missed by myself and the untold thousands of people he entertained and inspired over the years. The American shooting community has truly lost one of its greatest inspirations. My thought and prayers go out to his wife and family."
Others across Tennessee expressed their sadness upon learning of his death and remembered him fondly.
"It is really sad that a man of his skill and talent should die so young," said Paris, TN resident John Sutter. "I saw him shoot two or three times and was simply amazed at the things he could do. You may not know him when he started, but, by the time he was through, Michael Blackburn was a name you would never forget. I get angry with sportswriters and broadcasters, especially on a local level, who ignore people of such considerable talent because their sport does not involve a ball of some kind and think their narrow attitudes towards outdoor sports, which make more money for this state than all college and professional ball teams combined, put a black mark on their profession. People like Michael Blackburn only come along once in a lifetime."
An autobiography on the Wears Valley resident entitled: "The World’s Greatest Sharpshooter: Keeping History Alive" should be available through your local bookstore or obtained by contacting Arrowhead Classics Publishing at P.O. Box 1489, Sevierville, TN 37864. The book details his life and times and also offers the shooting tips and techniques that made Michael Blackburn an icon in theAmerican firearms community.
