  1. so, let us do a test run --- a bonnaroo or woodstock type festival on the airport property each year
  2. you think that is something, wait until you see the bill they get from OnStar and the price for tying up satellite time
  3. I have only had good luck with the regular white toothpaste for the headlights. The clear or gel pastes do not seem to work
  4. an interesting note --- according to most security companies and retail loss prevention, approx 45% of all thefts (in dollar values) is by employees, not the shoplifters. So, the few insiders are taking the majority of the items out the door... for example, the 2012 report of thieves caught says : shoplifters caught: 1,100,000 ---- average dollar amount $130 --- total $139 million in losses employees caught: 71,000 ---- average dollar amount $715 --- total $51 million in losses http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/03/business/retailers-use-databases-to-track-worker-thefts.html
  5. Perhaps you are as confused as most witnesses as to what a "cart wheel" really is. I would like to see a cheerleader do a cart wheel while lying on the ground. There is very little damage to the end of wings and no damage to the nose. It did was what pilots call a "ground loop".
  6. I don't think so without a subscription to a site similar to lexisnexis however, you might find something on courtreference.com http://www.courtreference.com/Paulding-County-Georgia-Courts.htm
  7. This is nothing new for the area including this county --- Drug money, vehicles and other property seizures are used / disposed of by the DA and sheriff most anyway they see fit. There is alot of illegal contraband & money traveling along I-20 through douglas county. In the majority of other states, there are laws that require that seized items go to public auction. It is all part of their open records and transparency laws. But in this area, the only items that seem to be are available are junk guns (the good ones never make it to auction) Why should i have to go to alabama,
  8. Provino's in douglasville has a cream / rosatella sauce, the same as scalini's in smyrna If you don't like the tomato-based sauces, then i would suggest Sam & Roscoe's in Dougasville, across from home depot. The meals and spaghetti sauces are made more the greek style with olive oil and garlic and no tomatoes, pretty good. They also have a free birthday dinner like provinos and scalinis
  9. It depends on what is wrong with the video screen --- It could be cracked -- replace the screen It could be the video "card" in the laptop, but that is not usually replaceable (replace motherboard) It could be the video cable is damaged or loose or unplugged (sometimes damage in the screen hinge area) I do not know your technical level, so it could be as simple as: The laptop settings have been changed to only display on an external monitor If it works fine initially, then dies after windows starts, the video driver in windows could be screwed up, etc Anyway, you can always
  10. Cursive hand writing is slowly going away and will become another specialized writing technique much the same as calligraphy has become --- it is now a "hobby" with some limited commercial use too.
  11. and you are paying twice as much to dry your clothes and for hot water by using electricity
  12. As far as Gas-South, maybe your contract recently ended and you are now paying the full rate of more than $1 per therm. The current rate is approx 62 cents for a 6 month contract and approx 65 cents for a 12 month. Also, since you are a greystone electric customer, you can get another 2 cents off if you ask for it. Between now and august is typically the lowest contract rates, then it usually starts going up as we get closer to fall and winter. If you want to compare rates for every company licensed in georgia: http://www.psc.state.ga.us/gas/certified_marketers.asp
  13. i spotted something strange in the law suit complaint --- "Ms. Jackson was first hire by Uncle Bubba's restaurant as a hostess. After six months, she was promoted to general manager." When was the last time that happened in the restaurant business?
  14. and now our good commander in chief's own words are being used to minimize the issue in 2 current cases as well as many future cases....... "Two defendants in military sexual assault cases cannot be punitively discharged, if found guilty, because of “unlawful command influence” derived from comments made by President Barack Obama, a judge ruled in a Hawaii military court this week" http://www.military.com/daily-news/2013/06/17/judge-obama-comments-unlawful-command-influence.html?ESRC=dod.nl
  15. They prefer that you be in douglas or cobb county, but since it is a state run program and receives funds from both the counties and the state, they cannot turn someone away that is need. From what i have heard, it is one of the better public mental health programs available and many clients there are claiming "homeless" to eliminate the issue of county jurisdiction. Paulding does not have a similar mental health facilities, unless it has changed in the last couple of years, they refer people to the state mental hospital in rockmart or the drug/alcohol detox place in cedartown
  16. They are not that different from other banks with their hidden marketing and fees other than these trash cards even charge a fee if you use their own bank's atm. The issue here is choice and the fact that you must open the bank account as a requirement in order to get paid (or to be a student at that school) and you do not have a choice of which bank to deal with. I don't know about you personally, but i do not like having accounts with 4 or 5 banks (if you happen to have kids in college and you are part of their financial aid, you are then "co signers" on this new account) And, with
  17. Cobb / Douglas CSB (community service board) has psychiatrists for meds, group and individual counseling. It is income based or free depending on their financial situation and number of dependents. They will have to make a free initial intake appointment and bring pay stubs, tax returns, etc, and they will get them into counseling if needed. Then if they need meds, there is a approx 6 week appointment to see the doc, so if they get the initial appointment next week, they might be able to get a prescription before August. The office also has their own pharmacy and discount meds. If you are
  18. from personal experience and that of my kids...... six flags pays via debit card argus events (concert workers) pays via debit card Some colleges pay their student employees with a debit card / account ----- almost all colleges and universities use them to pay the students their disbursement expenses or other "tuition refunds" each semester. I did not like it because of several reasons : they market it as a debit card or reloadable card, but in reality you are opening up another bank account with western union or ADP, etc and shows up on your credit score. It is almost imp
  19. It sounds like that little group has done this before, including the judge and his pre-signing warrants so the local officers can fill in any information they want
  20. Dr. Tina Caudill has a group practice in douglasville and only takes kids. I think she specializes in autism or ADHD issues. Dr. Anne Prescott also has an office in douglasville, and does some therapy with kids using her horses in the south paulding area both excellent doctors
  21. actually it should be part of the marshals office -- after all, there was a newspaper article recently about the dallas marshal being bored and wanted approval to be able to pickup warrants and such. And as far as the county marshals, they are just pulling down yard sale signs and performing other "Quality of life issues" anyway, so unlocking cars should be included (it is a quality of life issue)
  22. my how times have changed --- a year or so ago everyone got excited about 1 job opening at the paulding airport now, where is the excitement and mention of the 20 or 30 jobs that are being created here ? --- plus the extra jobs and businesses that come with the anchor store in a shopping center
  23. if you want peace and quiet and beach & bay, then either: pensacola: Fort Pickens recreational area (national park)--- camping if you want or plenty of condos down the road. Basically an island that is 10 miles from the park entrance, and usually you are the only one walking on the beach, etc destin: Henderson beach state park. Very quiet, not many tourists. Camping or they also have a really nice hotel there run by the state
  24. Don't have the answers for you other than you can begin the healthcare paperwork process in October.... CNN link to healthcare that begins on Jan 1st http://money.cnn.com/2013/05/01/news/economy/obamacare-application/index.html
  25. have you tried Parker Sales in dallas? or Vansant's Mower in douglasville? they are both snapper certified dealers
