  1. If you want pine straw from the Boy Scouts and haven't ordered - this is the last call. Please go to www.troop7online.org and order. There's a link on the front page. The cost is $4 a bale with a 5 bale minimum. This helps our youth do their big scouting trips. AND, it helps your yard and neighborhood look great!!! I know that we are delivering a week early this year. Due to our adults' scouting schedule and the pine straw company's schedule, this was the only available weekend to deliver. Thanks for all of your support. P.com has always been a great contributor to our
  2. She's not at McEachern. By the friend group on Twitter - I would assume she was at South, but that's merely an assumption.
  3. I know that at Hiram they just did a password reset for all of the students (not the parents). But, I'm not entirely certain that it's right because too many students there that I do trust when they tell me it's not working say it's not working. So, I'm going to email admin today to see is going on.
  4. We are prime members with our parents. And, the amount of stuff that we've shipped to oldest at college has more than paid for it. Plus, my dad loves to order one little thing from Amazon because it's free shipping and he doesn't need it today. I think it's worth it. Especially when I realize how much shipping is on the very few occasions that I've needed to get something that wasn't prime. Shipping is expensive. The other plus is that Amazon usually ships via UPS or Fed Ex which goes to oldest's dorm room door. USPS goes to a building on the literal opposite end of campus. He loves ge
  5. My parents have been to Pinnacle and moved to the same practice as Surepip (before Surepip went). One of their docs recommended cutting my mom's bicep tendon due to a congenital defect. Because my mom has other serious health issues, when she needed her hip replaced, she went to Emory that handles all of her other health issues. While we were just chatting with the PA about all of her issues, Mom mentioned that her shoulder was acting up again and that Pinnacle recommended cutting the bicep tendon. The PA came unglued, and the doc recommended that she never see the Pinnacle doc again. Tha
  6. I'm not an idiot (I promise). And, I just about slid through the intersection of Mt. Tabor Church and Bobo Rd. Luckily, as I crossed the line, I got some traction on the other side of the road. Not fun!!
  7. We would have loved to have helped you all out (and you all help us out). That's alot of pine straw. Your yard owners are the exact opposite of most folks. Most are complaining that it's too early this year. But, it was the only free scouting weekend we had. And, even then, we are dividing and conquering various events while doing the deliveries.

  9. Found this on google news!!! It might have come from Glen Beck's website (he's a bit off, I agree), but these are Mike Rowe's words. I confirmed this on Mike Rowe's facebook page. Mike Rowe’s Facebook page has become a destination for common sense and words of wisdom on the internet. Rarely do you find someone speaking such honest truths that people on the left or the right come together in praise. Recently, Scott Walker has come under scrutiny for not finishing college, but now he’s a favorite for the GOP presidential nomination. Is he qualified? A fan of Mike’s named Kyle said, “How
  10. I need to go get the drycleaning and get the propane tanks filled. It's too cold and windy. I stayed home and napped under the electric blanket with the pup instead. Hubby has to entertain work folks tonight. I think I'm going to try Blondie's take out service tonight.
  11. I think that if they actively called it the Affordable Care Act and pushed the media to do the same, it would slowly change over time. I have a conspiracy theory sneaky suspicion that he doesn't mind that it's called Obamacare. There are other things that he has said and done that tells me he has a pretty big unchecked ego. Most people do call him Obama?? What's his actual last name?

  13. Thank you Glassdogs!!! We truly appreciate it. Pass the word to your neighbors!! It will improve your view!!
  14. Thank you lovapet!!! Please spread the word to your neighbors. We have to deliver a couple of weeks earlier than usual because of our other scouting commitments, and our sales are a little slow!!!
  15. Can you message me your information? I'll check the spreadsheet. Bethel Church is correct - we are technically owned by the church and therefore our bank account is through them. But, the CA address bothers me.
  16. http://www.people-press.org/2007/04/15/public-knowledge-of-current-affairs-little-changed-by-news-and-information-revolutions/ While you are correct, I find it interesting that CNN watchers are closer to Fox News watchers than they are to the most educated folks. It seems that the 24 hour news folks do a very poor job in general which, even though I watch very little news, it's my impression that very little news gets talked about - it's more editorial material rather than news. This article has some interesting statistics. And, what we are dealing with is no different than what I ha
  17. Oh yeah - 1. Social Security is not an entitlement. It was a mandated retirement system. Folks were forced to pay into it with the promise of it being returned to them. I'm tired of hearing that Social Security should be cut but the true entitlement programs are sacred cows. 2. Federal employees are doing their job. Extend the same courtesies and protections to them as you do to yourself. 3. While the Federal employee unions are the biggest unions in the US, it's only because all non-supervisory Federal employees are automatically enrolled in the union, whether or not they pay du
  18. It's funny. You say that the things that your father is saying aren't true (except the monkey thing, but I'll deal with that). But, while his word choice is a bit over the top, the reality is that alot of those things are happening. I don't watch Fox News, but then again, I don't watch much tv at all. It's just too much arguing and fussing. I do alot of reading of online print stuff. But, even then, I do avoid alot of the heavy hitters. The fact is that you can sway any facts to say what you want. 1. It will continue to be called Obamacare because no one really tries to change it
  19. I'm guessing that they are a group of the craziest crazies isn't good enough. And, no logic doesn't work when dealing with them. You have to be as crazy as they are. But, we won't let our crazies loose on them because it doesn't look good on tv. Al queda kicked them out because they are so crazy. In my mind, we need more folks like the King of Jordan. Kill one of ours - we'll visibly kill two of yours and then I'll bomb the $hit out of you. !
  20. We use Dr. Saade across from the Avenues. We love him. But, while we've never had a problem getting a sick visit, getting a well check can be a long wait.
  21. Just finished up watching two soccer games outside. It will take hours for me to defrost. BRRRR!!! The goal keeper that was punting 70 yards with the wind was only punting 30 against the wind. It was bad.
  22. Don't forget to order your pine straw!! We deliver it to where you want it. You can even email us special delivery instructions if you want it in a certain spot. Otherwise, we try to guess where it will be convenient to you as well as out of the way. We don't always succeed!! But, we try!
