  1. Just got a spam email dated yesterday that is addressed to my login name for pcom and sent to the email address I used to sign up here with. The email is addressed to 20 other names/email addresses, all that coincide with some user names on pcom. Basically this is allowing me to see the login names of others, as well as their email addresses. I was able to cross reference the names I can see to users on this site, so Pcom is the source of this. The fact that it was sent to my Log In name and not the one you see me posting under is a dead give-away since I only use this specific login
  2. There's some beautiful fields right off Bill Carruth Pkwy near the Water Dept.
  3. Yes, just 4 months ago. Really liked the guy, his wife works along side him in his practice and she's genuinely nice. They were accommodating and ready to answer questions and make me feel better going into my first surgery ever. He also seems to do A LOT of surgeries, so I felt comfortable with everything going into it. Afterwards his wife followed up with us personally to ensure I was okay. I had a bit of a complication with the type of surgery I had and they were diligent on getting me in and addressing it. (It was bad post-op swelling, not from what he did). But everything ended up
  4. Yawn. I'm so tired of politics and the discussion of which party we enjoy more to bend us over and give us the high hard one sans lubrication. Especially the one party that's so much better at it than the other. You know the one I'm talking about.
  5. Statistically you are correct. Also statistically sober drivers are in more accidents annually than drivers under the influence. That doesn't mean that either one are "safer" means of traveling. Because, again statistically, accidents involving drivers traveling at a high rate of speed are 3 times more likely to result in a fatality. Now, empirically, I see more drivers who engage in reckless driving habits daily that involve tailgating, speeding, cutting-off others, etc.. than I see drivers who impede others from driving as quick as they'd like. I mean if my only issue with co
  6. As real as anything can be on the internet, and yes there's a compilation someone made of these types of twitter posts not long after 2014 rolled around, with something like a hundred of these with people wishing the earth a "happy birthday" and so on. There were even a few with people arguing if it was earth or just the US that turned 2014.
  7. I still call it the "Village Green" Kroger since that was the original name when first built over 25 years ago. Also, not to be insensitive, attempt to excuse it, or be inappropriate, but many people joke about death as a way of coping with the thought of their own mortality. Of course anyone related to the deceased will not find humor in it, nor would they think it a laughing matter. But being removed from it being personal, sometimes the only thing one can do is "make light" as a defensive mechanism since death is inevitable.
  8. I can't find the compilation, but this was a "thing" on twitter this past new years.
  9. Wife and I were over in E. Paulding when we decided to head towards Barrett Pkwy. and find some dinner in Kennesaw, we drove into one of the worst hellacious storms ever. In front of the Avenues limbs were snapping off trees and nailing cars. The rain was blasting sideways in sheets. The roads were like driving through mudholes. Barrett Pkwy was flooding at the 120 intersection. It took us almost 40 minutes to creep from Lost Mtn to Hwy 41 in very little traffic.
  10. Toto > Dorothy > Oz > Kevin Bacon > BLT > Home > Kansas > Carry On... Game. Set. Match.
  11. Either that, or a freshly warshed bottom, one.. And I only want a Toto bidet seat if it plays "Carry on my Wayward Son" when I sit upon it.
  12. I understand your position fully but am remit to agree, perhaps you should pursue the following in order to understand better:
  13. I know rite? Ain't no better feelin' than a freshly warshed butt! CanIgetAhallelujah?
  14. To understand this topic fully one must be aware of the ramifications of noting the details of what passes as ethics in the west Asian republic of Goofistan, whereas there is not better than anywhere, or else, the repercussions of formulating ideals passes by daily with an ounce of prevention. To really get to the crust of the matter one must expose the exponential subsidy of the utmost downsizing around the midst of the party people, the important one that would mostly be allowed to prosper ineffectually. This chart will help explain:
  15. According to the pie chart posted below most folks want to hear music.
  16. When the Clinton era EPA dictated that federal road expansion money in Georgia earmarked for the metro area be disbursed outside the Metro area we fell behind in road expansion 20 years on all state roads in our area. There's not a single backroad (if'n it does go somewhere) east of 61 that's not used as someone's cut-through these days in this county. Traffic sucks everywhere in the metro but it's horrendous here in Paulding compared.
  17. An old friend of mine's parents still live in that area, and that's the second time a house has burned down on that property. The first home looked like the others in the sub from what I remember. And the home that sits there now was actually a modular that was put on the old home's foundation. I drove through there the other day and saw the car too, it's not that it's sitting there abandoned, it's also been stripped down for scrap apparently. The windows in it are all busted out.. looks like the engine parts have been scavenged, and the yard is approaching jungle-ish.
  18. I'll come over and swim... but only if you get one of these: I hear it only costs about tree fitty.
  19. Home-made Quesadillas.. it was make our own with.. spiced chicken w. diced poblano peppers and green onion garlic spinach and butter fried mushrooms choice of cheeses including.. monterey jack and/or Mexi blend.. ME? I went "whole enchilada" and had two with everything!!!
  20. Wow... I just spent about half an hour looking all this up and... yeah.. Seems Gamestop and other trade-in places that operate nationally have had this in their policies going back for years now. If they do business in certain jurisdictions where they're considered to be operating like a "pawn" shop then they have to take this information. But it gets better... Gamestop, et al. don't keep this info they pass it onto a 3rd party who logs it into a database which is then accessible by law enforcement... nationally. Slippery slope or necessary evil? ...above quotes taken from T
  21. Tonight supposed to be better as the actual broken up comet pieces will be coming by, but... unfortunately unless you live at least 15 miles away from any polluting light sources, the chances of seeing much, if anything, are pretty much nil. I remember going up to ballground when i was a youngin' to watch meteors and the sky, back then, was amazing being out in the middle of absolute no-where on a farm, and when it got dark out, it was dark. I can't say, in the 30 some odd years since, ever seeing as much of the night sky as I did that night as a kid.
