  1. Welcome to Pcom!!! Glad to have you here.
  2. Not just no, but heck no! I paid for address labels ONE time and now I have enough that I can't live long enough to use all that I have. Seriously! BTW, the ones I paid for did not come from a charity.
  3. rest assured, the truth will come out! BTW, you are probably being lined up for something even better!
  4. I always liked him more than Travolta. So sad.
  5. I was working on Windy Hill Road at I-75 that day and remember how nasty the weather had been. I had some friends who lived not far from the crash site, too. And my sister and brother in law drove over to see if they could assist in any way. They were both trained in first aid and had worked in various capacities in emergency aid in Douglas County. Back then, there was no formal EMS and all Paulding had was a volunteer fire department.
  6. No, it was near the Publix in New Hope. If memory serves me correctly, many of the victims were taken to Dallas Elementary OR it was used as a command post. Much of the airplane was scattered around the area. There is a small shopping center and convenience store now at the sight of the main crash. It's on Dallas-Acworth near East Paulding Drive/Old Cartersville Rd.
  7. At least one of those has been sanctioned in recent years. In fact, it was a Hewitt franchisee who owned locations in the Atlanta area. Now with preparers having to have registered with the IRS, one is much less likely to do anything that would have the ability to file returns as a paid preparer taken away from them. Not doing an accurate tax return would just about do that, too.
  8. I USED to get them done where I worked. Now that I'm not working there any longer, I do them myself. However, if I were going somewhere to get my taxes done I would go to Tina Drummond. http://anddrum.com/ She's a commerce member on here and one heck of a nice person. She's the
  9. I don't know that you would call this a "dream car" but this is what my hubby bought in 2008. He loves it. I'm just so-so about it. I don't care to drive it because the gear ratio just feels wrong to me. Funny story. We went to Dollar General in Powder Springs one day about a year ago. When we came out of the store, there was another car JUST LIKE IT parked next to it. We see it around town quite a bit, while hubby rarely takes his out of the garage. In fact, he bought a POS pick up truck to drive as his main vehicle so that the Sky would remain pristine.
  10. Oh yeah!! That metallic blue 'Vette is MY dream car. I almost bought one but bought this instead: Mine didn't have the spoiler or the stripe on the side but it was a '75 Camaro and it was metallic blue.
  11. sign up for job alerts at snagajob. You're NEVER get off their e-mail list.
  12. Just so you know, I was quite capable of handling the firearm when I had it with me in the car. I've shot firearms since I was a kid and my boss knew that as we had discussed firearms previous to that. The car remained locked while in the parking lot, just outside the window of the man's office. Believe me, HE knew how to handle firearms. In fact, there is a funny story about the day an intruder came into the business. And I will never forget the day I walked into his office and stood face to face with about a 9 foot grizzly. Stuffed of course, but still intimidating. Knowi
  13. Zillow is hopelessly outdated. I found a house on there FOR SALE that sold months ago. I know, because I made an offer on the house!
  14. Good luck in your race for mayor. I didn't know you very well when we worked in the same building but I do know your reputation. I don't live in Hiram but if I did, you would have my vote!
  15. I learned about carrying in plain sight in a car. I had driven to Office Depot in a car belonging to my boss. I looked over and saw the HUGE pistol in the seat next to me. I left it alone. When I got back to the office I asked him if it was legal for it to be in the car and he said yes, as long as **I** didn't conceal it (he had a carry permit but I did not, at that time). BTW, that man had a loaded pistol in his desk drawer in the office and one on the seat next to him in the car AT ALL TIMES. Then again, the office was on Great Southwest Parkway, right off Fulton Industrial. And t
  16. YAY!!! Success. I got the Great Clips online check in app and the Realtor.com app installed. Those were the main ones I was wanting. That Realtor.com app will really help when we're riding around looking at houses. I won't have to wait until we get back to the condo to see info about a house.
  17. I think it had to do with the fact that there hadn't been any apps downloaded in a long time. Like maybe since day one. Hubby never used apps. I have now downloaded two apps!! On to the third one. Edited to add that I had to do this through my hubby's Gmail/Google account on the phone. I didn't realize that I had to reset the phone to factory settings BEFORE putting my SIM card in and adding my info. Thanks everyone!!! :yahoo: :yahoo:
  18. Google Nexxus One. Just updated the OS to the latest edition, too.
  19. Whenever I attempt to download and install an app on my phone, I get the message "There are no Android phones associated with this account. Please sign in with a different account." WTH does this mean???? Does that mean I have to download and install using my phone and not my computer?
  20. :rofl: I told someone yesterday that I wasn't good at math and that I did accounting. She laughed and said "well, you're used to bigger numbers than $1.50 plus $1.50". I guess so. At least that's going to be my story.
  21. Very happy to hear that!! :yahoo: Even though I haven't been in 20 years, it is an institution and a landmark for this area.
  22. I've never been good at math. So my answer is 27. :rofl: :rofl:

    So...

    Lord knows Powder Springs needs something to attract people downtown, every day of the week! I think it would be a great idea. Be sure to publicize it, too.
