But can he hook up to the Internet with the blackberry?
A couple of sips and it will seem that he is.
That's not all. According to the Knoxville News Sentinel website (ww.knoxnews.com) "Guffey told authorities he parked his truck with nearly $3,000 inside it in Flag Pond (a small town in Unicoi County), took a walk and came back to find it full of moonshine.
He said he has been buying whiskey like that in eastern Tennessee and western North Carolina for a decade.
At first I was perplexed because the article you quoted said the officers were charging the man with bringing the 'shine *into* Unicoi County, presumably from South Carolina. I was wondering why in the world anyone would do that, when everyone knows that Tennessee 'shine is the best there is. But reading the News-Sentinel article I see that the gentleman was in fact buying the stuff in TN to take back with him to SC. 312 quarts, he was gonna have him a heck of a party.
