Oh my....you must drive your food truck to Alabama!!

There were some owners of gas stations in MS that were prosecuted for price gouging after Katrina! And some in AL were prosecuted after Ivan. I know one in AL had to close his business.

I don't. And why is this newsworthy anyway?

At DeSoto Caverns (Alabama), they have toilet races. There are several toilets that are motorized, like on scooters. That was so fun!

Looks like a woman trying to look like a man!

People have such a distorted view of Alabamians. We are not all "rednecks" with no teeth that live in trailer parks and drive old pick-up trucks with Rebel flags on them.   On the other hand, if you do want to experience that toothless redneck stereotype, just visit one of the many Waffle Houses across the state.....more

The tornado that hit Tuscaloosa, AL on April 27, 2011! I have never seen so much devastation in my life! I went back to Tuscaloosa 2 months ago and rode through some of the areas that were literally wiped out. 2 years later and some parts still look like a war zone....gut-wrenching to say the least.

I was living in Romulus (outskirts of Tuscaloosa) when those tornodoes hit. I watched the tornado as it passed by less than a mile from where we were living. That was scary! I have some pretty scary pictures of the tornado and the lightning....*shudders*

The headaches are horrid when you are "addicted" to soda! I have not had a soda since August, it was not easy for the first few weeks. I was a mean, mean woman...lol. Once I got over the headaches, it was smooth sailing from there. I lost 20 lbs in 3 months just from cutting out the sodas and I feel so much better too!
