Kirk's birthday was great. He is a great guy. I was overwhelmed by all of the people that came to celebrate with him. Maybe when I have my 50th (in a few years) he will come to my party. :o)

Dot Shultz and Tony Gore surprised Kirk Talley with a surprise 50th Birthday Party. "Last night was wonderful. I was scheduled to help Tony at the Restaurant, but when I arrived, there were black balloons, and 50th Birthday decorations everywhere . I walked in and there were tables and chairs in places where they have never been before. Dot was smiling proudly so I just began to laugh. Friends started pouring into the restaurant and in a matter of minutes, it was filled to capacity. Over one hundred people filled the restaurant, so needless to say.....I went to work! We were carrying ribs and pork and banana pudding and sweet lemon pie to everyone. Friends from Texas, Oklahoma, Michigan, Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Wisconsin, Georgia, Alabama, Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina, and of course Tennessee, sure made the night a lot of fun. The Galloways, Lulu Roman, Connie Hopper, Landon Beene of the Beenes, The Talley Trio, Tim Owen of the Testimony Qt, Randall Hunley, Jordan Amburn, and of course Tony Gore, completed the list of Artists who were there. Cards and gifts were stacked up by the door, and the party was ON. We laughed and ate and sang and laughed a lot more, turned some "non party" patrons away (Sorry Tony). Later in the night, I was blindfolded and slowly walked and sat down in the most amazing gift! Dot had organized ( she should run for public office) the Krew and you guys and gals went together and got me the best gift ever, a massage chair! They plugged it up and brought it in the door and when I sat down in it, still blindfolded, it began doing it's thing! Up and down my back, my feet, my neck, my arms......I didn't want to get up!!! I just sat there and enjoyed it for a while! I LOVE IT. Of course, I got a lot of "old people products"......everything from Geritol to reading glasses, (which I already have).... a jug of syrup, and then some other great gifts too. Shirts, Ties, gift cards, cash, checks, picture frames, chocolates, all kinds of things......Man, oh man, I was like a kid at Christmas. Let me say, THANK YOU, from the bottom of my heart. It was a great night that I will always remember. Thanks to all the Krew members who pitched in and made the massage chair possible! I will use it every night. As a matter of fact....Pastor Joe Copolo helped me unload it and set it up at my house, and I sat in it for about 30 minutes before I went to bed last night. Thank you to everyone who sent cards and gifts.....I am amazed...It took me 30 minutes to open all the cards......that's not a complaint!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH'

Come On Down To The FarmPosted on 05/21 at 01:22 PM
On Tuesday evening, May 13th, the music video, "Come On Down To The Farm" hit both YouTube and GodTube on the internet. The song has literally exploded with over fifteen thousand hits within the first seven days. Written by Rick Wingerter and performed by Lewis & Lewis, the song is a light-hearted, humorous look at the serious social problems of homosexually and same-sex marriage. The timing could not have been more perfect for the duo since the video went up on the web two days before the landmark ruling by California's Supreme Court overturning a law which prohibited same-sex marriage in that state. The song is obviously being applauded by the conservative church-world while drawing fire from gay rights activists. One thing is sure, "Farm" is reaching new audiences heretofore inaccessible to gospel music and Lewis & Lewis are making a multitude of new friends (and a few enemies) for their uncompromising stand. Lewis & Lewis can be contacted at . Their website address is http://www.lewisandlewis.org Referring website: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xzp0S3yO1QA
