Well considering the range of DUers here anyways. My ex used to work at the Shoney's there years back when it opened and I was a manager at the Easley store when it opened. Damn, now they've almost all closed.

I'm in Tennessee now. I still have close friends and relatives there and the surrounding area. I was raised during the era of Jim Crow and played football with the T.L.Hanna Yellow Jackets.
