  1. Protip: Take all the junk and break it down into black garbage bags, don't make them heavy, nor sharp/pointy, each week sit ONE bag at the curb with your regular garbage. In a few weeks or a month or two, all of it will be gone.
  2. I got a NES Emulator. Up to you procure Zelda ROMs.
  3. As we get older we need something to grasp and shake at those damn kids on our lawns.
  4. That's where my mom goes. There was another one closer at E/W connector @ Cobb General who shut down.
  5. Friend of mines dad had a welding/machine shop here years ago and he would take small brown paper bags.. put a shot of acetylene in them, twist the tops.. then when no one was paying attention he'd hit them with the torch.. and BOOM!!! all the steel in the shop would ring like crazy.
  6. Been out this afternoon cleaning up the yard. Rather do it now when it's still a tad chilly, trust me in the sun it isn't cold right now.. than to have to do the yard when it's warm out.
  7. During 82 mom worked off 41 in a business park and called my dad who worked for an engineering firm in Chamblee and told him to get up from his desk, get in his car, and head home, to Smyrna, right then, as mom was already stuck at work. Dad made it to 285/75 interchange before leaving his car stuck on the expressway. He walked to Windy Hill and then to Atlanta Rd. to get me from a daycare and we hitched a ride to where our neighborhood was in Smyrna. Guys were out that night in 4x4s giving folks lifts to their homes, there were hundreds of folks walking from Atlanta. '93 was much differe
  8. There's always an empty cul-de-sac somewhere around that'd hold everything.
  9. One of the booths on Ridge at Grand's on corner of Nebo/Baker's Bridge is automatic, but to warn you it's not a very good one as it's all touchless sprayers.
  10. Now if they'd fix the damn keyboards cos it ain't like the letters are going to get all jammed up whilst typing.
  11. Hate to be the bearer of bad news but you cannot. The only thing you can do with an iPhone is to "jailbreak" which is disable the limitations in the OS that Apple or your network provider put into place arbitrarily that you agreed to upon purchase of the phone.
  12. There are NO laws in the State of Georgia that suggest this UNLESS you are a party to the accident. To state that innocent bystanders may be committing a crime by not rendering aid in the event of an accident they were not involved in is ludicrous and dishonest. In fact, up until 5 years ago, there were no laws protecting "Good Samaritans" in the state of Georgia from attempting to render aid. For example trying to pull someone from a burning car and failing to do so, or attempting CPR unsuccessfully, would make you liable in a wrongful death suit in this state.
  13. To root means you remove the factory lock outs and give yourself unfettered access to everything installed and being run on the phone. This can mean being able to install a custom ROM (operating system), update the Radio (cellular firmware), or open features that have been locked out by your provider, such as tethering. The drawbacks of doing so can be steep and range from bricking your phone, making it 100% unusable or negating any warranty offered through your provider.

  14. Sorry I didn't get to this topic sooner I was busy instructing my butler on how to properly buttle me. Luigi's Pizza, circa 1990's on Ridge Rd., was known to take special requests during delivery and render service, laws be damned.
  15. There are a few new cars out there with GPS built in that will actually self-adjust the speedo readings. The problem with getting into the on board computer is you need a programming tool and not just an OBDII scantool that interfaces, which most places won't have the former since one mistake w. programming can screw up the car and they don't want the liability.
  16. If you're not used to being on the sea the closer to the water, as in the lower you are in the ship, the less lateral and vertical movement you're exposed to while the ship is under way. Which can make a big difference in being able to sleep comfortably.
  17. I put my important stuff in a styrofoam cooler from Piggly Wiggly, bury it in the back yard, and mark the spot with some old tires.
  18. Here's a chart explaining everything:

    Fire?

    Was clearing out on my way home, on the other end of Nebo by BCP was hazy and nasty tasting, oh and smokey too.
  20. With as much vinegar as may be desired, rub the yolks to a smooth paste.
  21. 3.14159265359% of women disagree over which flavor of pie.
  22. I don't know what the hell you just said but I'm mighty offended and I think anyone here should complain. It's not fair that I read that there you just posted here in that thread where you did say that thing. I can't tell if I thought that was funny or if'n I just got defensive in the nth degree. So we'll just call this out and make due with the way it should have been thought instead of read.
