  1. The owner of Gabriel's and Paula Deen are 1st cousins and have a lot of the same recipes
  2. North wins coin toss to play at home on Friday vs. Creekside
  3. Stephenson does a great job in getting offers for their kids and 8 is actually a low number for them. A few years back they had over 20 kids get offered by colleges. Unfortunately many haven't qualified academically. They have the athletes but so far it hasn't equated into a deep run in the playoffs.
  4. I heard they were. I'm sure the idea was tossed about. In any case, if they are using school busses, I'm sure they had to prioritize to ensure the team got their in time. Usually 90 minutes or 2 hours before the game. I heard that they are expecting a heavier than normal rush hour today, generally people heading south for the week, that the latest the band would need to leave would be 4:30 preferably 4:00
  5. Let's think about this for a second. If they are having problems getting school busses to transport the band to the game on time, they probably have the same problem with the football team which has to be at the stadium even earlier than the band to warm up plus stop for a pre-game meal somewhere so the boys can perform at a peak level. Therefore the football coaches and the Touchdown club has chartered busses to ensure that they get there in plenty of time. It's kind of hard to have a football game without 2 football teams.
  6. Good point. However, the US has made tremendous strides to reduce its emissions of pollution since the 1960's. China, India and other emerging economies have not done so and currently do not intend to curb their emissions which in part is one of the reasons they can produce products at a far cheaper rate for us to by here at home. The United States should stand firm on any agreements to curb its emissions any further until these countries agree to do so as well because at the rate they are polluting it doesn't really matter what we do.
  7. Joe Bastardi, a very well respected long range meteorologist, who pegged Sandy and its general path long before any computer model did, has been claiming for years that we would have storms like Sandy go up the Eastern Seaboard. Not because of global warming but because of the atmospheric pattern we are in now with the Pacific Ocean being cold and the Atlantic being warm. The last time this atmospheric pattern occurred was in the 1950's and in the late 1950's we had 6 hurricanes make land fall in the Mid-Atlantic/Northeastern US. The 1908 storm that many have compared Sandy to was actual
  8. Great student, great person, great player. Go Dawgs!
  9. Yes I am fully aware of what Nazi-ism is I took several World History courses while in college. Did you know that Nazi's started out using anti capitalist rhetoric to gain support amongst the poor masses who were suffering in Germany's post WWI era but waned away from that towards anti-semitic ideas to gain financial support from industrialists at the time both in Germany and abroad. So am I supposed to say its OK for liberals to call conservatives Nazi's or vice versa because of what happened to the American Indians? Or what about slavery? Or maybe the atrocities the British Empire m
  10. Yeah it's pathetic how they compare conservatives to Nazi's. I guess they don't know that Nazi is short for "National Socialist" in German but they don't care because once the accusation is out there then no one cares to read a retraction or apology and it sticks. Seriously, words matter and we ought not compare anyone to Nazi's unless they advocate genocide of an ethnicity or race of people. Otherwise we dishonor those who were prisoners in concentration camps and those who fought and sacrificed to help bring the Nazi's and the Imperialist Japanese out of power.
  11. Ben Bernanke has to go. Decides to start printing money and says there are no signs of inflation on the horizon. Huh? I guess he hasn't filled his car up lately or gone to the grocery store either. Our government is so out of touch with reality.
  12. Supposedly, most of the restaurants in the area received a very bad score. I think some inspector was having a bad day.
  13. It is Turkish food. Similar to Greek. Very good and fresh food. I always get the spicy adana kabob with an appetizer of feta cheese which comes with pita bread, sliced cucumbers, tomatoes and black olives with a light drizzle of their dressing. It's one of my wife's and my favorites.
