  1. I'll pull for Auburn, but not be upset if FSU wins.
  2. If I am still alive 20 years from now and having pot legal has not caused the problems I thought it would, I will buy everyone from today's pcom a toke. I will not smoke with you or be around you when you smoke, smelling pot makes me nauseous, but I will pay for a toke for all.
  3. The truth is that this country had major issues with alcohol related problems before the Volstead Act and it had major alcohol related problems after the repeal of the Volstead Act. The issue with the Volstead Act was that you made something illegal that had been legal, something that people who did not have issues with alcohol related problems had done legally before the Volstead Act. In fact, this is one of the major reasons for my not wanting pot to become legal. Once you have legalized it, it is almost impossible to go backwards and make it illegal again. I predict that once pot is mad
  4. They all do that, don't they? (or that just me?)
  5. Am I the only one that found her strangely attractive?
  6. We had the following storms basically 10 years apart. 1973 - The Great Ice Storm, electricity was out in Smyrna for over a week 1982 - Snow Jam 82 (or The Great Surprise Blizzard), many were stuck where they were for at least one night, some for two nights. This storm is one reason the schools now close because they say a storm is coming. 1993 - The Great Snow Storm - this was the deepest snow that the metro ATL area has received in my lifetime and it was the deepest that my parents remembered.
  7. I do understand your point, but I am not one of those who wants to stop the death penalty because of it. (yes, I know all the arguments, I hear them from my wife every time I spout off on this topic) I am also not against pot in general, I just see more problems coming down the road with it being legal. I hope I am wrong about that, I would be very happy to be wrong. But if I get a vote, my vote is no. BTW, those who said back in the mid 70's that decriminalizing pot would lead to it becoming legal appear to have been right. While those who were for the decriminalization and said (very
  8. I think this is a very good and very valid point. Either they do not know what the end is they are trying to reach or they do not want to say what the end is they are trying to reach, as that end may not be acceptable to a large part of the Paulding County population. I have said from the beginning that when you have done something positive and accomplished something that is good for the county, you stand up and say; "Here is what we have done, here is where we hope to see this going and here are what we hope are the end results of this project." Wouldn't that help resolve 90% of the
  9. I love TX as an example of how to handle criminals. They run them through the death chamber like you are supposed to, fast and often.
  10. If it is true that players are bigger, faster and that causes more injuries, then why isn't rugby having rules changes. It is a tough sport, with collisions.
  11. Actually, Mike Vick was drafted by Dan Reeves and the Smith family, specifically Taylor Smith who took over after his father Rankin died. Arthur Blank bought the Falcons in 2002, which by the way, in 2002 my season tickets were $390 per seat, compared to the $1,390 per seat they are now. Greedy b****** that Blank is. At the time Vick was a gamble worth taking, but the firing of Dan Reeves by Blank and bad coaching hires did nothing to help keep Vick under control. Also, Blank's stupidity in handling Vick and kowtowing to him (in order to get a certain segment of the population to buy seaso
  12. Was it imported? Been talking to my wife, huh.
  13. When the weather people say there is a 70% chance of snow (or rain), all that means that 7 out of 10 people they asked said, "Yep it will snow (rain)."
  14. I predict Hell will freeze over. (the wife is cooking, so I have a good shot at winning this one)
  15. When I was growing up in Smyrna, my grandfather had a large chicken lot. He had buildings that the chickens slept in, I never remember an issue with cold weather. I also don't remember anything more than electric lights heating the buildings. But being a true carpenter, he did have them all insulated. Interesting, I will have to ask my mother did he do anything else to keep them warm. I remember the great ice storm of 1973, the electricity was off for over a week. All of our animals live inside. The cats are de-clawed on the front paws and while poodle loves to go out in the back, it
  16. All I know is that woman is quick. I would hate to have her after me, I am sloooooooow.
  17. I know that he never tried to study or work at learning, that is a fact that has been admitted by everyone, including Vick. That is why he was never allowed to audible. Leaving out the cowardly and despicable thing with the dogs, it is a shame that we will never know how good he might have been when he started in the NFL IF he had applied his self and worked and studied at being a NFL quarterback.
  18. I saw an episode of this year's COPS recently and they were arresting some scumbag in TX for outstanding warrants and for some new charges. While he was sitting in the police car, the crook started yelling, "When I get out of jail, I'm leaving TX for good!" The cop asked him where he was going to go, the criminal's reply, "I'm going to Colorado!". "Figures.", replied the cop. Says a lot, doesn't it.
  19. If I am wrong, it won't be the first time....today. (in fact, this hour, the wife has already corrected me 3 times since 9pm)
  20. I'm ok with being called a troll. Better than being called a lawyer. ETA Just for the record, I have 2 topics I started on the page, both about football. Also, it doesn't bother me if no one likes my topics, I don't like ever topic either. One last note, I have never called The Postman a troll and I support him in his posting. I don't always read his posts, nor do I always agree with his posts, but what the heck, a lot don't agree with my posts. (and sometimes I am even wrong)
