No, this isn't political. <sarcasm>

So that's why I couldn't pick up channel 5 yesterday morning.

I don't believe that people should be rewarded for doing the right thing, but in today's society, I guess that's what it takes sometimes. I would not accept a reward for anything like returning lost goods, but I would probably offer one to anyone that returned mine. Particularly a child or a person who was obviously down on their luck.

Yup. Their Righteousness actually showed up at my door holding a freaking baby! Couldn't have been over 4 months old. I respect your right to practice your religion, just leave me the heck out of it. I should have called the law on her for not putting the little critter back in a baby seat before driving up the street. You would think that the posted signs out at the road would give them a hint, but no.

Paulding County Code Red Weather Warnings Sign up today. it will automatically call your telephone (home and/or cell) when there is a severe thunderstorm or tornado warning for your immediate area.

Your account number changed. You will have to use the new account number. You can see instructions and get your new account number online.

What they would like to do is to bill you like they do Cell phone usage. They want you to buy a package with a contractual limit on usage, and then be able to charge you out the wazoo for any overage. They are making a fortune on cell phone contracts that way, because the smallest available block of usage is larger than many people use, and the largest is smaller than power users use. They are able to "rob" both ends of the spectrum.

Also try Wayne Davis Concrete, and Thomas Concrete. Tell them that you are willing to wait a while until they have another delivery in the area. The problem is that somebody has to be home when they deliver to write a check and supervise, and they are not always good at calling ahead. Thomas (770) 439-5940 Wayne Davis (770) 439-5711

Tax Freedom Day arrived just earlier this month on April 3rd. For those of you who don't know what this is, it means that here in Georgia, you effectively worked from January 1st until April 3rd and gave all of your wages to the government in the form of taxes. It is the day when you finally earned enough money to pay off your total tax bill for the year. The facts on Georgia's tax climate

The seriously high correlation between easy money policy lowering the dollar and high oil prices. Oil, like many commodities is priced in US Dollars and is widely used as a hedge against the falling dollar, a dollar that is falling due to Quantative Easing (printing money) and high debt. There is also a high correlation currently between non-industry holders of oil futures contracts and increasing prices, another indication that supply and demand are not the primary players here.
