ATHENS, Ga. - The tin roof and a burned-out frame are all that remain of a cabin believed to have inspired the B-52’s ’80s party hit “Love Shack.”
Athens-Clarke County fire officials said Thursday they considered the fire that gutted the unoccupied five-room cabin set back in a field “suspicious” and hadn’t ruled out arson.
Fire Inspector Reginald Hunter said Monday’s early morning fire couldn’t have been caused by faulty electrical wiring or a gas leak because the cabin wasn’t hooked up for utilities. He said building supplies used for renovating the house had been stolen.
Other properties near Athens — where the quirky band known for towering beehive wigs and catchy, oddball pop songs formed in 1976 — also have been credited with being the Love Shack. But it’s known that singer Kate Pierson lived in the cabin in the 1970s.
“I just was in touch with the B-52’s,” said Allisa Huestis of Atlanta, who had planned to move into the renovated house next week. “They said it was the original Love Shack and was where they created `Rock Lobster,’” the popular song from the band’s 1979 self-titled debut album.
B-52’s publicist Bradford Cobb said Pierson wasn’t available for comment.
“Love Shack,” released in 1989, became the B-52’s first Top 10 hit, rising to No. 3 on the Top 40 charts.
Pretty funny stuff and a nice idea for marketing…

Psalm 112:4-10 (Bible opened by Chief Justice and by chance it fell to this Psalm)
4 Even in darkness light dawns for the upright,
for the gracious and compassionate and righteous man.
5 Good will come to him who is generous and lends freely,
who conducts his affairs with justice.
6 Surely he will never be shaken;
a righteous man will be remembered forever.
7 He will have no fear of bad news;
his heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD .
8 His heart is secure, he will have no fear;
in the end he will look in triumph on his foes.

Closed family Bible
(George W. Bush had hoped to use the Masonic Bible that had been used both by George Washington in 1789, and by the President’s father, George H. W. Bush, in 1989. This historic Bible had been transported, under guard, from New York to Washington for the inauguration but, due to inclement weather, a family Bible was substituted instead.)

Of the nearly 9 million mobile homes in the U.S., the majority are in the South. South Carolina and New Mexico have the highest proportion, according to a recent analysis by the U.S. Census Bureau. For sheer numbers, Florida and Texas lead the pack.
More and more Americans, for a variety of reasons, are opting for the mobile home. The Census Bureau study shows that the number of trailers in the U.S. increased from 300,000 in 1950 to 8.8 million in 2000. Like it or not, the geography of rural and retired America is also the geography of the trailer.
