  1. I'd be willing to bet he won't want anything to do with her EVER again. If she shows up for his trial, he likely will want protection.
  2. I'm concerned about his friends. They should have a better class of friend. But maybe, just maybe they will learn a lesson from this. Hopefully he will, too. So what would have been something better to expose the kids to? Seeing their mom raped and murdered?
  3. Heck, yes, we're cheering about it. Serves him right. HE invaded THEIR house. It's about time that the bad guy suffered the consequences for a change. If the woman hiding in a closet in Fairburn during another home invasion yesterday had a firearm, she might not be the one in the hospital recovering while the assailants are still on the loose and quite capable of doing it again. Maybe to you.
  4. I have. Numerous times. That's how I knew they offer a senior discount. But their website doesn't give the age you have to be to get the senior discount. I really have to side with a couple of the Powder Springs council members on this. It's not a good idea to have alcohol and guns in the same place REGARDLESS of what safety precautions you take. Just really isn't. And why do we need yet another place for people to drink in Powder Springs? Isn't the one or two places we have enough? If we're going to have more places to drink in PS, make it a restaurant that everyone can visit not
  5. Dr G. And Mrs. Dr G (she's a doc as well).
  6. Just so you know, in spite of the fact that you've had pets for along time, allergies can develop at any time. Usually they don't but they can. Could be the reflux. The day after I have bad reflux I do tend to cough a lot.
  7. My husband's chronic cough turned out to be due to a mold allergy. Do you have mold or mildew in your house? It might not even be visible. Ours was in the crawlspace. Once we got rid of the mold, the cough essentially went away. Definitely ask for a chest xray but also tell the doctor about anything that could be triggering the cough--mold, mildew, pets, dust, ANYTHING. And if you find you have any of these, particularly the mold, mildew or a new pet, and you remove it, you may find you don't need the doctor after all. Also, have you just started using a fireplace or wood burnin
  8. Five bullet wounds and the guy is in "bad shape". What a shame.
  9. According to this, there are EIGHT of them!! http://www.thedailygreen.com/living-green/blogs/save-money/perennial-vegetables-460410 Naturally, asparagus which actually takes until the second year to get a harvest. We have actually had tomatoes come up from seed left in the garden, as well as peppers and melons.
  10. And if you're a senior, you get a 15% discount. Hmmmm. Wonder if they consider 55 a senior if you have to be 65?
  11. Bars and even liquor stores have been held liable for accidents caused by their patrons. These people are putting a TON of money into this project. It would be tragic, for a number of reasons, if someone had a drink there and then caused an accident out there on 278 and the liability was placed on the gun club because they served the liquor. My concern is not what happens at the range because they do seem to have safety in mind. It's for what happens after someone leaves there. And it's for the owners of the range. Lots of liability here. Besides, who has just one gun? Unless they
  12. Absolutely. EVEN thought they take your firearm once you enter the bar area, you're still drinking and you're still getting in a car to leave. Dumb idea. Dumb, dumb, dumb. Obviously they didn't attend the New Year's party that my husband and I and another couple hosted back in the late 1980s or early 1990s. That right there should have been enough to convince anyone that alcohol, cars and firearms don't mix.
  13. Crazy as it sounds, we have tried to stop that and it worked better! The car is real low to the ground and I guess the sensors are set to aim a bit higher. I remember when those were first installed at 92 and East Paulding. They were horrible!
  14. Seems odd that it only happens with the top down. Maybe something about the black top looks different to the sensors. Who knows???? We just know it happens often enough that we noticed.
  15. I think they were the course taught at Chattahoochee Tech. Great course! I learned sooooooo much.
  16. The sensors apparently DO NOT "see" the car which is red, a high visibility color and certainly nothing that blends in with gray/black pavement. We don't have that problem if the top is up. I cannot explain this but I am not wrong on this. It happens at more than one intersection and quite honestly in more than one state. Since it's a two-seater, I'm positive you're not there to see what is happening. When you sit through a half dozen lights waiting for a turn signal, you get the idea that it's not picking up your vehicle especially when the other side gets turn signals and green lig
  17. Have you tried GNC? And online, you can try Swanson Vitamins. I don't know that either have it, but both would be worth a try.
  18. And they can't "see" a little sports car if the top is down. Field of vision maybe??? It has stumped us.
  19. Ok, it's a sensor. It's not buried though. Wonder why they don't seem to "see" my husband's little red car when we have the top down but have no problem seeing it if the top is up? I mean the car weighs the same amount either way. And not just the ones at that intersection. All of them up and down 278.
  20. At 92 and Macland there ARE cameras or sensors but they are not buried in the pavement, they are on poles with the traffic lights. They seem to work really well, whatever they are. When I came through there about a half hour ago, there were no cars turning onto 92 from Macland from one direction, so the other direction got a green arrow AND a green light without having to wait for the other side to cycle through a green arrow when there was nobody there to turn. I wish all intersections worked that well. Places that have them that I know for a fact have them: Macland and Poplar Sprin
  21. Very true. I even heard a few years ago that they had stopped S-corporation officers from receiving unemployment benefits in spite of the fact that they paid unemployment.
  22. True. And that intersection does have them. As I said, likely they are for traffic control but they may have at least short-term recording capability. That intersection actually seems to be where the cameras work the best to keep traffic flowing, too. Lord knows they don't at most of the other intersections where they are located!
  23. They likely ARE for traffic control but they may have recording capacity as well. Wouldn't hurt to check with the DOT about it especially in a situation such as this. They just might have what the OP is looking for.
  24. They have them at 92 and Macland. Operational, who knows??? They are there.
