Used to work at that blockbuster on Nicholasville road during the summer of I believe 2002. Was when they were converting VHS to all DVD. Remember all the nerds fighting over each other to rent the last copy of that god awful lord of the rings movie. I was going to get fired because I routinely would get high and watch Pixar movies and eat snacks and not actually work, but I quit right before the manager could fire me and swiped a copy of that evolution movie with David Duchovny and the black guy from the sprite commercials.
Good times. Goooood times
Good times. Goooood times
The best 6 years of my life there. Some of the best friends you will ever have in your life were the ones you had working in a full-service restaurant in your 20's. They actually re-opened the original Darryl's location in Greensboro, NC a few years ago.
Time frame?
Yeah, it's amazing that it has lasted so long at that location. It's closer to Philpot than the bypass there. I think Evansville still has 2 or 3 of them.
Why invite a team to the bubble if going 8-0 doesn't even get you in the play-in game? Sucks for the Suns and Booker, but I guess he'll be fine. #Kendall
Serena and Venus Williams played a tennis match against each other today in Nicholasville and no one had a clue.

This baseball season is dumb. Most teams have played 16-20 games, and the Cardinals are sitting there at 2-3.
I'm sure it's been discussed. But Bubble Sports is the way to go. Games starting at noon-3. March Madness style. I can't go back. I won't! Gambol all day.
You left off #1....Do Ya......and their best that no one knows about...Fire On High, which for us old farts was the best TV theme song ever.
Summer of 2001. The first summer I chose to stay in Lex instead of go back to Louisville, and live in University Commons on Red Mile.
Fire On High doesn’t crack the top-5? Come on, man.
My parents were NOT excited when I decided to stay in Lex for “summer school” when I lived at Royal Lex (and worked at Nich Rd. Rafferty’s).
The best part about working in the service industry, by far, is the drugs and sex.
Don't Bring Me Down? Especially given current events?
Mine parents were happy I was trying to finish school faster and working, being a stand up citizen.
Then on June 24 that year I was arrested with 5 felonies and 8 misdemeanors which changed everything. All charges dismissed of course because I am white, naturally!
Impressive! Were the five felonies all at once or was that separate charges on like 5 different things you did?
Looks like we lived there at the same time. Place was wild back then, great times. It's much more controlled and tame now, to my understanding.
All at once man. It’s actually the case that, I believe this is still true, they removed those outside exterior doors when you had to go through 2 doors to get in the apartment.
Edit for details:
Well I was a pothead that had lots of pothead friends that also knew lots of potheads. Of course my roommate was growing some stuff in his closet as well, but wasn’t there that night.
I had a warrant against me that they tried serving all weekend and that Sunday when I came back the chicks downstairs let me know, and I left all day and went back late that night when they came back to serve the warrant around midnight.
I didn’t answer and planned on using the “I didn’t her you” excuse if anything happens as I had the outside deck door locked.
However they went and got the maintenance dude to let them in, so once they started banging on the actual door to the apartment I scrambled to clean up thinking “they can’t know I’m here, they won’t come in”.
Well they did, and they found plants, well over 8oz, and all the paraphernalia they needed, tampering charges etc.
But the apartment manager testified in my behalf(cleaning the pool every morning for free didn’t hurt), and the prosecutor tried arguing going in a house for a warrant was fine, and the judge disagreed as I wasn’t a violent offender and missed court on a PI and Disorderly Conduct.
Everything was dropped because once they came onto the deck it was illegal search and seizure. The judge let me know how lucky I was, and let me know if I ever was in her courtroom again she seek maximum punishment knowing I got off the hook once when I shouldn’t have, so I stayed 1 more year in Lex behind the SAE house while a roommate was rushing there and then moved back home.

Yeah, I come in with a "Funny, we lived there at the same time," and krazy follows up with that.
I did the summers in Lexington too. While fun, my now wife moved to the beach with her girlfriends and worked down in Hilton Head during her summers. It was like a 3-month Spring Break for her. And I'm kicking myself for not doing something similar. I'm now like Red from Shawshank in reference to my former self. I want to try to talk some sense to him, tell him the way things are.
Oh my freshman year boyfriend did the Hilton Head table waiting thing. Let’s just say we broke up when I went to visit him.
In hindsight, that would have been a cool thing to do.
I think Nate and Terry are still down there running the Holiday Inn tiki hut.

KrazyKats is the most fascinating person in this entire site and I’m not sure there’s a close second. I say this with reverence.
Normally I'd track somebody down for calling me "boi", but I ain't messing with no 5-time felon!
Had to google reverence, I guess that’s directed at the cool kids around here.
Yeah, what Hilton Head really needed was a crotchety, grumpy old 20-something to lecture everyone on the island about consuming marijuana, wagering illegally, speeding, underage drinking, obeying curfew.....
[eyeroll]
David Boggs. Wtf Louisville? City’s gone to ****.
Quentin was such a good guy back in our college days. Man, life is short.
Fun times there. I was located to the left of the main entrance and faced out to the main yard overlooking the pool area.
Im sure we ran into each other at some point.
I somehow convinced my parents I would do a Maymester the summer going into my Senior Year. This consisted of one 3 credit hour class Monday-Friday that went from 9-11:30.
By 1:00 each afternoon I was on Folly Beach with a cooler of domestos enjoying life. I would head back to the apartment late afternoon, get cleaned up, throw down some cheap meal and head out to whatever bar had drink specials for the evening. Rinse. Repeat. Heady times.

That’s the craziest part. Please clarify. You cleaned the pool for fun, or you started cleaning the pool after you were wanted man? I know you sold weed to that apartment manager.
Krazy has the most appropriate username of all time.
I’m assuming you literally stayed behind the house, like in the bushes. Sold weed to the SAE house in exchange for bathroom privileges.
I was just watching videos on KSR celebrating the best left handers in UK history. They were showing highlights of Lorenzen, and McCord was in them. Then I come here and he has passed. Talk about a serious mood change. A serious punch to the nuts. he looked bad *** rocking the #25 jersey catching passes.
- Seems like half of my fraternity did the waiting tables on HHI thing. I always say I wish I had done it, but looking back on when I visited it was probably a good thing I didn't.
- And1 Circuit was pretty much one step above the Globetrotters, the YouTube videos don't hold up at all, but it was still pretty fun when it first became a "thing" and everyone was geeking out over it. Have forgotten a lot of the names but will always remember Hot Sauce and The Professor.
- Heard the drum line practicing for the first time while out in the yard this week, and my heart soared. I don't care if I let myself down at this point.
- Think it's been asked before, but anyone have a legit copycat recipe for Ovid's Spicy Beef Wrap? I still think about that all the time, wish I could still just walk in and get one. Glad I had a lightning fast metabolism in college with the Sigma Chi house being mere steps away.
- I just stick to what I know on investing, but kicking myself pretty hard right now for not buying up as much of my company's stock as I could a few months back. I know the same can be said for a lot of companies right now, but it's pretty much doubled since.
- Have a buddy that's up two stacks over the last few months just using the Keeneland Select handicapper's picks. Seems more efficient than trying to do it yourself, but what do I know?
- Speaking of dangerous stuff we bought growing up, highlight of one of my overnight Scout trips was when we made a stop at the actual U.S. Cavalry store (since acquired by Galls) after poring over that catalog for so long. I can't even believe they actually took us there now, but, man, they had some cool (and incredibly dangerous) stuff.
- I was a terrible Scout and didn't last very long, I wasn't dedicated enough. But passing the exam to get my orange card and being able to fire a shotgun for the first time at Camp McKee was pretty much peak scouting for me. Still remember the first time that thing kicked my shoulder. Ouch.
- Things You Never Knew Existed was another must read catalog. Pretty sure someone in there had hoverboards or crafts of some type figured out decades ago. All you had to do was the buy the plans and build it yourself!
- Daily bike rides to All-American Sports Cards in Stonewall were a requirement growing up on the south side to peruse the card booths and comic book racks. Trips to Tumbleweed were pretty frequent, as well. Having worked in the kitchen there in high school, I'm surprised looking back it was never shut down over a major health code violation.
