  1. I'd never seen that footage - I guess that was one of his 4 cigars for the day. My boy's eyes get as big as baseballs when I read them some of the adventures of Tom Sawyer.
  2. I hope there is not a new double-wide in her future!
  3. A good, but long read. Obligatory quote from article: "REDDING, Conn. – Mark Twain died here on April 21, a century ago. He was 74, and in failing health, his heart — his tobacco heart, he called it — so weak that he interrupted a restful cruise to Bermuda to return and die at the house on a hill built for him just two years earlier."

  4. Someone is behind the times on this one - hike naked day has always been June 21 of each year.
  5. okay, what was the answer you were looking for?
  6. Ask them if they are residents. If no, then ask them to leave. If they do not, then call the SO (non-emergency number at 770-445-2117 and ask for an officer to respond and then call one of the HOA board members as they are the only ones that can file a criminal trespass warrant. (I've been through this one myself) We did have a "resident patrol" but the HOA would not back up anything (kids should be punished when needed) so it disbanded. We have paid for off duty sheriff's officers to patrol when needed, but they get $20/hour or something like that - not worth it to me.
  7. try this: https://paulding.pay...intro/paulding/ There used to be a site that showed you the millage rate and each portion of the bill, but I do not see that any longer. The site above allows you to see the amount and pay if you so desire.
  8. New York's 133-year-old National City Bank merges March 30 with the 92-year-old First National Bank of New York to create First National City Bank (Citibank); March 30, 1955 - Pres. Dwight D. Eisenhower signed a bill extending to April 1, 1956, corporate and excise tax rates at existing levels
  9. Jay Silverheals leaves "The Lone Ranger" did Tonto ever work or ride again? Elanor Roosevelt had an exciting day and visited the first Christian church and Jewish synagogue among other activities of March 30, 1955: http://www.gwu.edu/~erpapers/myday/displaydoc.cfm?_y=1955&_f=md003130 Am I getting close? Paul Reiser is born
  10. Composer Harl McDonald died today 55 years ago at age 55. "On the Waterfront", Marlon Brando & Grace Kelly win Academy award Dep. Bill Neill of White Pine County Sheriff's Department dies in NV from auto accident.
  11. I know work on the south fork of the Nebo tunnel was supposed to begin this week, so it could be blasting if you are near that area.
  12. he was probably a professional only interested in $s. You were prompted by the Spirit and accepted the call to act. The man is being deceptive and will have to answer to that one day. Each day people are prompted to act and many fail to move upon that call. Don't be scared the next time - just follow your heart which is the Spirit giving you an opportunity. There was a good suggestion - take the extra items to a food pantry. You have accomplished the same thing.
  13. they sell bonds to get cash today for today's needs, hoping that future tax collections will pay the debt. I do recall the votes for the school bond. We, in the north end of the county, needed new schools. I remember the other portions of the county had high no votes, will the bond did pass. I am looking forward to paying back the south end - paybacks are hell. Remember - it is for the children!
  14. this news release answers a lot of the questions above: http://schools.paulding.k12.ga.us/ischooldistrict/district_news.php?districtNews_ID=166&school_ID=&district_ID=2
  15. I used TT and had no problems. Maybe try uninstalling the flash player completely and then re-install from the adobe web-site - the current flash version is 10.x.
  16. cobbobig, check out this WIKI on the NMDP: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Marrow_Donor_Program In the "other US registries" section, it states that the private foundation/registries are associates of the NMDP.
  17. I have collected my thoughts and details on the process and once it settles in better, I have considered posting for those that are interested in the process. I am not really familiar with other listings. I would think that information would have to be shared in order for the odds to be at there best for a match. Consider this: the center that I worked with has 496,974 registered donors, and has collected 672 marrow products and 577 stem cells products since 1987. That means that .0025 of their registrations produced a match. A lot like hitting the lottery. Increased registration numbers will
  18. Collection day was yesterday, March 22. Everything went well and I am thankful that I had the opportunity to donate. It was a privileged to be able to do that for stranger. I am going to work on hosting a registration drive in the near future to encourage others to be involved. Do something big and bethematch.org - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJ2RsJFGtNQ (PSA by Shaq)
  19. My old man is retired so I get a lot of forwarded emails from him. This one was really cool - a 20 minute segment on carrier based pilots trying to land in 30 foot seas. It is really amazing. Do you think you have what it takes? >>> LANDING TERROR! This is very unnerving, landing with deck pitching 30 feet, at night, low on fuel. Incredible. You will never forget viewing this. I have seen a lot of aviation emails but the two videos below are undoubtedly the best. Turn on your sound and go full screen. I guarantee this will definitely hold your attention. These vide
  20. No payment for 11 years - same clutch after 234,000 miles. Looks like a piece of junk, but I would drive it across the country.
  21. My marrow collection date is scheduled for March 22. Saw this video for Shaq and the National Marrow Registry and thought I would share. Video: http://registry.marrow.org/site/R?i=ygsOdkrSKpH38pI37WzzeQ..
  22. My guess is that the Jeep models will have a lot of electronic gadgets (climate control, heated seats, etc.) that I would not want to full with if they needed repairs.
