Well I went to the aquarium in Gatlinburg yesterday its one owned by Ripley's. I went ahead and got an annual pass so now I can go any time I want and stare at the animals. The jelly fish tank and the manta ray tank are two of my favorties, they are good places to go and stare and think deep thoughts like "..ahhhhh." The shark tunnel is pretty cool too, its like the one in Jaws 3 except the tunnel is made of acrylic, so no fear of it collapsing and freeing all the creatures into the lobby.

When I got out of the aquarium I decided to walk up the stip for a bit to see the strangeness of Gatlinburg. Few places in the world can compare with the strange assortment of knick knack shops, candy smells, olde tyme photographs, haunted this - haunted that, motion master rides and Guninness world record places as in Gatlinburg.

But on my way out I stop in the Harley store and that reminded me that I needed to get a big ole belt buckle. For no other reason than to have a big ole belt buckle. So I walk a bit and find one in a little souvenir shop that I like ok, but I buy it anyway becuase the Indian lady "made me a deal." So half hearted I contnued back to the car when I came across the "Belt Loop" shop and it is there that I finally found a big ole shiny silver belt buckle with a gold eagle in the center, after its discovery I had to find a belt to put it on, so after much deliberating and listening to the phone conversation where he talked about the "rules" the electricians had to follow when they worked at his house, which included working with your shirt off ,the friendly gay proprietor of the shop recommended the burgandy belk, which I agreed was probably the most versatile choice.

So with my shiny new belt and belt buckle in hand, I headed home.

---and in continuing with my fishy adventures I think I will go see Finding Nemo tonight and I have hooked up my cam so everyone can stare at me like I am in a fish bowl.
