If you can demonstrate need, I have a couple of futons available, so long as you don't bang the pool balls around too loudly after my bedtime.
Now, if you can work for your room and board, there might be better accommodations available at the Casa de Fife Remote and Secure location on a short-term basis. That is, if you're not afraid of some cottonmouths, snapping turtles, and the every-now-and-then scorpion.
I used to visit TN twice a year and I never encountered a scorpion.
I doubt there are many scorpions up in this area. It's not Florida.

I have seen water mocassins and turtles in Tennessee though.

Fife has to be in the top .001% of Tennesse to afford a pool table. I believe the median income of that state is $36 zimbabwe dollars. When I drove through Tennessee, all the futons I saw were outside in peoples front yards. Even taking into account the flooding, Tennessee would be a huge downgrade from Houston or even the FEMA Superdome rape camps.

Tennessee has little baby critters. Cute ones. Going to Tennessee from Florida is like going to the petting zoo.
Except for the bears. Don't fuck with those guys.

Filthy tourists. OK; I'm guessing there aren't many scorpions laying about the Dollywood mini-golf courses in the mountains. I'm talmbout west Tennessee.
My guess is that neither of you have spent the night in the Hatchie bottom where I grew up; but all are welcome up north in the LBL natural preserves.

My grandmother lived in Eagleville near Murfesbororo and I used to have to do work on her farm during the summer and winter. Clearing brush and burning it, putting down stones to make a path etc. I would take scorpions over the ticks that stuck on my balls for days.

Honestly even drinking the flooded brackish water on houstons streets might be safer than drinking TN water. Potable water is still a curiosity in that state, and 86% of all TN's water has severe sulphur contamination.

You saying the free market doesn't care about water supplies?

Im saying that Tennessee's economy is not advanced enough for any modern system. They still barter using jars of molasses and squirrel pelts. I have been trying to help Fife out and get him out of that state for years now. There are plenty of fine homeless shelters in central Florida that would take TN refugees. It was the least I could do for the last ten years of punishment that the Gators have inflicted on the Volunteers.
