How did Bo react when I tried the door? The way anyone would. He looked as if he was wondering whether he had locked the door.
Hotel fitness center doors are usually kept permanently locked. (so those locals too cheap to pay health-club dues down the street don't get any smart ideas...) Your room key is needed to open them.

But I did have fun calling a teenager in the family and asking her if I should sit all night in the hall hoping to see them. Or you could have done the classic skit of dressing up like room service and trying to get into their room that way.

Kalisa,
Obviously I've never used hotel fitness centers for exercising. I have thought of it but never done it.
I was pleasantly surprised by the fact that the bugs didn't bother me. Maybe there weren't any bugs. Usually if one is within a thousand miles it finds me. I had been a bit leery of outside concerts, particularly in the South. Actually the mosquitos aren't as bad in the South as they are in the North. Southerners keep spraying for them. And they seem to be bigger in the North. And, of course, there's the heat. But June 8th was a beautiful night in Chattanooga. I understand they had a terrible storm with limbs falling on houses, etc. after I left.
Sukka,
I suspect if I looked like Jennifer Lopez, Bo might have come to the door and opened it. You know they're called "Tempting Temptations."

One more note. I don't know what the delay in the Tempts performing was, but I kept telling the people around me, "Al isn't out there yet. Where's Al?"
We had all seen the Tempts walk up the stairs from the "dressing room" --a wing on a lower 'floor' of the barge. And the Tempts were waiting too. They had walked up there quite a bit before they came out. I don't know whether Al was delayed or whether he didn't come out until some technical problem was solved or what. I just know it wasn't the Tempts problem.

Yeah, my parents were without power for about 15 hours. One more note. I don't know what the delay in the Tempts performing was, but I kept telling the people around me, "Al isn't out there yet. Where's Al?" ...... I just know it wasn't the Tempts problem.

Story by Vince Lennon on Sun, Jun 8th 2003 (11:34 PM)
A subpoena for Temptations singer Harry McGillaberry in an Anderson County, Tennessee lawsuit hits a roadblock when a Hamilton County Sheriff's Deputy refuses process servers access to the singer.
A strange thing happened before the Tempations hit the Riverbend stage Sunday night.
A summons to appear in court for Harry Temps, aka Harry McGillaberry, one of the band' s singers, did not go over as planned as servers say Hamilton County Sheriff's Deputy Lieutenant Billy Long refused them access to McGillaberry.
Lt. Long declined to comment when asked by NewsChannel 9 of the situation with service agents and the subpoena for McGillaberry.
Sheriff John Cupp soon interceded and after discussing the situation with Lt. Long, sided with his deputy's actions.
" That service of process is limited to a sheriff or a constable," says Sheriff Cupp, who noted if the summons agents had gone through his department, then they could have served the papers on McGillaberry.
Floyd Thompson, who was trying to serve the papers on McGillaberry, says as an officer of the court with a legitimate legal summons, he should have been allowed to do his job. Thompson disagrees with the Hamilton County Sheriff Department' s interpretation of the law. Thompson declined to talk on camera for fear of future reprisals from local law enforcement.
The subpoena for McGillaberry is for a lawsuit filed in an Oak Ridge, Tennessee court, where McGillaberry is expected to testify as a material witness June 25th.
Yes, I have known Sheriff Cupp all my life, but no, I didn't have anything to do with it ......... I promise. ;D

I have never understood that, why does the reporter refer to Harry has "Harry Temps" as if that's his name? He doesn't call himself "Harry Temps"! .......... but it just hit me......... that's how he signs autographs .......... "Harry ................. Temps" as in "Harry [of the] Temps" but the reporter thought that's what he's taken as a last name! HA HA HA HAAAA!!!! :laughing:

I've already mentioned that Sherrif Cupp (who prevented the papers from being served) is an old family friend. Well, just when you thought this story couldn't get any more strange, my father told me last night that Floyd Thompson goes to the church where he (my father) preaches. (We've just recently merged with another congregation and since I don't live there, that's why I don't know this guy.) Apparently, Thompson was eventually successful in serving the summons.
Anyway, everyone is welcomed to join me in a chorus of "It's a Small World Afterall."
