Gatekeeper007 said:I said Orangeburg county, I use to watch six gun theater on Saturday on WCSC channel 5 when I was little and Dainel Boon on channel 5 in the afternoons in my teen years. I have eat at Dukes across from the old Pepsi plant many times, Sweatman's BBQ a whole lot more, The Dry Dock a few times, Piggy Park on 301 quit a few times, Quincy's steakhouse on 301 just to name a few places. I remember when 301 was two lane, the coke cola plant was still on Russel street. the old Hospital was over by Carolina ave, and WDXY, WORG, WPJS, and WTND were still on AM radio and the town square still had the sign painted on the side of the brick building telling how many people the station served and you could still read it. Do I need to name any thing else.
Must be one of those damned Branchville boys. Sweatman's can't hold a candle to Earl Dukes', Piggy Park only counts if you were cruising from there to the Burger King down by Riverside and back over and over in a Chevelle on Friday and Saturday nights. The hospital only counts if you had a fake nametag like I did so i could eat cheap in the cafeteria, and the Student Nurses' Dorm across the street was like shooting fish in a barrell, and I worked at WORG, WDIX (twice) and (almost) WTND on that AM Band. I think I was the only DJ in WORG history to be fired after his first airshift, I drank whiskey and helped Mike Black work on that red Mercury Comet of his under a tree in his Daddy's back yard, I ate at the Western Sizzlin' with Mike Thomas (Mary Rose put up a much better salad bar than the one at Quincy's), I street raced with Truckin' Travis Rhoad, had lunch with Stu Wright once (anyone who knows him will understand why I never did it again), and went to Bannatyne's every Wednesday, Friday and Saturday night (except when I was at Archie's in North, and later at 301 and the Cannon Bridge Road).
Orangeburg County ain't Orangeburg, Cowboy. It's like a guy from Long Island saying he's from "New York". Close, but no cigar.
