Thanks y'all. I will get with James at West Metro and see if there is any chance he can start stock piling them. It looks as if I would not be the only one looking for them. Back in Winder, where we moved from, you could get them everywhere - Ingles, Wal-Mart, etc... I have made requests at the local stores and they all look at me funny when I request a certain kind of weiner...

Sounds more like the kickdown sensor to me. Dodge trucks are prone to bad sensors in the tranny after so long. My problem is that it will not kickdown in to low gear when I am slowing down. Now, I do not get the shutter that you are talking about, but when I start off it tries to start in second gear which is very sluggish. As a test try this - as you are slowing down, manually shift the transmission from drive, to 2 and then down to 1. See if this fixes the problem. If it dies, then you probably need to replace the sensors. It is not hard to do. All you have to do is drop the transmission

Does any one know of any where in the area where I can get McEver's Weiners and bologna? I have looked at every grocery store that I have come across. Nobody seems to carry them around here. Their website says that various locations in this area should carry them, but I can't find them. In Winder, where we moved from, we got them at Wal-Mart and Ingles. Right now, we are having to get them sent to us from Winder or pick them up when we go back that way. Yes, we are picky about our weiners!!! We love them fried for breakfast. Here is McEver's website (if you are interested): www

Thanks LotsToDo... I actually moved laterally (pretty much). I am only 2 hours away from where I was previously. I built my last ICF house in Winder, Ga. I am well aware of the termite situation - Native Georgian here. i am more interested in the structural characteristics of the ICF vs the benefits of the insulation factor. The polysteel forms are manufactured with borate in the molding process and not just sprayed with a deterrent after they are made. I think this is the difference between the other ICF providers. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the information and the suggestio

By the way - Thanks NatureGirl for the reference to the HBA. I am familiar with their site and their organization - beats me as to why i did not think of checking that out earlier... I guess it was a "DUH!!!" moment. I hope you did not take my earlier reply as being contradictory to what you said. I was actually agreeing about the licensed contractor part of the home loan, but I think there is a play on words in the nomenclature that allows a loop hole. i will just have to dig in deep and see what I can come up with.

OK - First off, thanks for all the replies. I did some more research on the Secretary of State's website concerning licensure and found this little tid bit: FAQs for Licensure I am not sure if it pulls up the actual page I am referring to or not, but question number 8 is: Will I be able to build my own house or building without a license? And the answer: Yes, property owners may construct a building or structure which is for their own use and not for use by the general public and not offered for sale or lease. If you sell or transfer the building or structure, you will not be

OK, as some of you know, I am still somewhat new to the area. We, my family and I, moved here in May. We are currently renting a house, but we know that we do not want to keep renting. I am a residential designer by trade - or I guess I could say "Hobby" seeing as how the housing market crash left me looking for other employment; Hence the reason I am new to this area... Any way, I was looking over the Paulding County Building Permit information. I noticed that they require a licensed contractor to sign off on some of the forms. Does this hold true if you are building your own home wit

As long as you have something for the bird to stay on you can... The author of that site talks about grass (as in your lawn) and flavors from the grass, I have never tasted a "grassy" flavor on my Turkey. The aluminum foil on the ground blocks the grass, so there is no taste from it. Maybe it's just the beer.....Because when I am cooking the bird that way, it is "one for the bird...one for me"

If you have not heard his entire CD - you need to. He is a good ol' Georgia Boy. I think he lives up around Jackson County (Jefferson, Ga)

The best way to cook a Turkey is in a trash can... Trash Can Turkey I have used this method for the last 3 years. The only other thing I do, that's not shown on that site, is I open 2 - 3 beer and place them under the can with the bird to add moisture. Usually, the bottom of the bird will be at the bottom of the stick because the meat just falls apart - YES, it IS that juicy and tender!!! Since I started cooking them this way, my wife's family swears by it. They always tell me that I have to prepare the Turkey for them. Yes, it sounds corny - but it is GOOD!!!!!

Long story short - I blew the engine in my 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 2wd this weekend. I was left stranded (whole family) on HWY 85 for about 4 hours Saturday afternoon. I have a mechanic friend of mine that is willing to do all of the work on it - including the parts for around $1500 - but I have to supply the engine. My motor is completely shot- the crank and everything is gone!!! I have debris in the oil pan and that is bad news!!! I need to find a donor vehicle with a 5.9L engine and transmission or a complete assembly from the junkyard of a similar year (2001). I am still so

Welcome to Paulding County and www.paulding.com. You will find a butt load of great people on this site. We moved to the area about 4 - 5 months ago and we love it. We only moved a couple of hours to get here though - we are Native Georgians. One of the reasons we chose this area was because of this site. We still haven't met very many people, in person, yet, but we are sure we will get around to it very soon. And YES, this site is Southern Hospitality at it's best. Just wait, before long we will have you talking with a Southern Draw as well...

Most people are shocked to hear that I had cancer - I always hear, "but you look so healthy"..yeah, 36 yrs old, 5'8 and 220 lbs...that's healthy alright My cancer was cured by removing my thyroid. Almost 18 years ago now.... The other things that shocks people is that I actually have some intelligence - despite my accent (Georgia born and bred) One last thing - I can do almost anything. I am one of those people that can look at something long enough and be able to figure it out - or I can see something done one time and be able to do it from that point on.

In middle school, the fad for the fellers was to perm your mullet so that it was a kinky curl. I had the mullet with natural curl so I just picked it out and did not have to perm it. Freshman and Sophomore years, I went through the real close haircut stage - almost buzzed - then the mullet came back in style for a while. I let my hair grow back out again and rocked the mullet through my senior year. I never let it get too long though. If it was wet, it would hang between my shoulder blades, but when dry it would kink up (remember the natural curl) and hang just below the collar of my shir

My wife has been looking for a job for a couple of months now. She gets these messages from snagajob about K-Mart and Michael's and other such areas, but when she follows up on them, they always tell her that they are not hiring. Right now, we are keeping our fingers crossed on a job she applied for that is very near our home.

I find it kind of funny how our parents (mine and my wife's) were concerned about us moving to the Paulding County area due to the fact that the area, in the past, has seen a fair share of "naders" and bad thunderstorms....but since we moved here a few months ago, they have had worse storms than we have. I will admit that since we have been here, I have heard the loudest crack of thunder in my life. I had one crack like it was in my living room - it actually shook the walls of the house. Woke me up and scared my wife.

I have an old Roper dryer that no longer works. It was working fine, we took out a load of clothes, put in a new load and NOTHING!!!! Have no idea what happened to it. I checked all of the usual things that I knew to do but to no avail. Luckily, my in-laws had one that was pretty much brand new - they donated it to the cause...LOL So, now I have a dryer that does not work sitting in the way. Does any one know where I could dispose of it? Would a repair shop take it off my hands for parts or should I just find a deserted road and leave it there... I am joking about leaving it

We ended up going top Red Top. I had printed out a map of the lake that listed most of the ramp spots - but left it at home when we left. I just remembered what someone said about going out 92 - turning left on 41 and looking for a sign. I saw the Red Top Mountain sign and just went there. You were definitely right about the lake being crowded. The water was very choppy and a lot of big boats. I could see it being a water ski nightmare. Looked fun for wakeboards and Sea-Dos though. As I mentioned, I am used to Lanier but it is definitely not my choice for a lake. I grew up on Lake Ha

I get condensation drip in the front passenger side of my truck floorboard when I run the AC. I don't really think that this is antifreeze that is dripping here. As asked earlier, is the smell a sweet smell? If so, then, yes - you have an anti freeze leak problem. The best way I know to clean the carpet is to take some purple power (or similar degreaser) and scrub with a medium stiffness brush. Test a spot in an inconspicuous area first as a degreaser can cause a discoloration. Rinse the floor board thoroughly with a water from a water hose and use a shop vac at the same time so you minim

My Dad is coming to see us this weekend and he is bringing his pontoon boat. He wants to go over to Lake Allatoona and just go riding for the day. Since we are new to the area, I was wondering if anyone could give us some suggestions of a good place to put the boat in? I'd like to go to one that is relatively easy to get to and use. We will be leaving out of Dallas, so if anyone could help out with directions, that would be much appreciated as well. We are used to Lake Lanier and this will be all of our first time on Allatoona.

I met the webmaster for www.scanpaulding.com this weekend at our yard sale. He didn't say anything about the site being down, but I think I understood that he had just taken it over. I have asked him to take a look at this website and join our happy family. Prayers for those involved in the motorcycle wreck as well.

when my daughter was 6 weeks old she started running a fever of 104 so we took her to the hospital and just like you niece they ran all those test and at the end they found out that she had a UTI infeciton, maybe tell them to look into that.

So, I take it that rating deal below my signature is what you are referring to. Mine has a <-XX()XX> - I did not post the numbers but it really doesn't matter to me. I take it that the -XX is a good thing, according to your explanation. But why do I have the second number? If a number is listed there, does that mean I have done something wrong? If so, I am baffled because I haven't caused any problems on here...YET...LOL OK - Now I get it...Thanks for the further explanation via PM Boss I think I even understand the -XX and the XX now...but I feel like I should

OK, I am still new here but I have seen these posts before... WHAT THE HELL IS A MAYBERRY?!?!?!
