I grew up in North Carolina during that era. My hometown was pretty much like Mayberry. Most folks were married,though,and stayed that way,through thick and thin. Nobody locked doors except for businesses.. Didn`t close `em in the summer. Everybody owned a gun or two,but we didn`t shoot each other. We took them to school if we wanted to hunt on the way home. Left them in the principal`s office all day,or in cars in high school. Bootleggers were honest,just lawbreakers. I lived in a dry county. We prayed in school and said the Pledge of Allegiance. At a football game,people were QUIET during th

He`s broke? He has a cell phone. And tattoos ain`t cheap,they tell me.

I no longer go anywhere I can`t drive. Mostly because I don`t care for the TSA hassle,or to sit next to a brat,whether the brat be young or old. I would only fly in an emergency . On the other hand,there were a few hundred folks on four airliners on Sept.11,2001 that would love to have seen a passenger or two with a weapon on board.Other than the muslims with box cutters.

It takes a lot of need for me to visit the courthouse annex. WHY do we have all this security there? No judges ` office is there. Other counties don`t have security except in the main courthouse where the court rooms and judges` offices are. Vote a different sheriff in office and this could be stopped. I have always liked our sheriff as a person,but I have a strong dislike of the sheriff`s office as a whole. I`m not a cop-basher. Four of them in my family.

The tunnels are being dug by transplanted Viet Cong who are having flashbacks about Cu Chi.

I`ve met with Anderson a few times and I was impressed with her.If someone doesn`t like the fact that she has served several terms,then that someone should run for the position. As for a diploma....Obama has one(I presume). I`m not impressed.

Yes. The bridge has overhead beams. The nest is overhead on some beams.Could possibly be an osprey,but there was a bird sitting on the nest. I could only see it`s head and neck. Looked like a female eagle. I was in a boat idling under the bridge. The eagles have been nesting there for years on various parts of the lake,but mostly are where you have to be in a boat to get close. One was on a post last year,and you could ease up to it. I don`t like to bother them.If you drive in a car across the bridge you will drive right under it. These eagles on Allatoona are thanks to the Ga.DNR.

Looks like these guys would learn to leave Zimmerman alone.

You actually said something I like. I like it very much. God Bless.

I love airshows,but did not and will not attend anything at the airport that was rammed down our throats after being voted down. I will not support it.

There is an eagle`s nest on the overhead beams of the steel bridge at Redtop Mt.

I ate dog in Southeast Asia. Not bad. Canadians don`t just export horse meat,but serve it in Canadian restaurants. Nastiest animal around? A hog. And we slobber over it. Think I`ll go to Rodney`s.

Staff members will sometimes lie,sometimes stonewall,and sometimes flat don`t know the law.I have seen this in courthouses all over Georgia. Some courthouse personnel are very knowledgeable and very helpful. Some are not. For instance,in my treks,I have found the probate courts to be the worst. You usually have to see the judge himself/herself to fix the problem. There is available an open records booklet ,put together by Ga attorneys,which states which records are open and which are not. I have had to stand my ground on occasion in the various offices in the Paulding court house. Do this and

This shouldn`t be any more newsworthy than the DUI that I got in 1975.It has nothing to do with his Dad.How many of ya`ll have driven with more than two beers in you?

Most of the people killed on the highway are killed by the younger folks.Wanta stop everybody from driving?I was almost hit head-on this week in New Hope by a fool passing two cars on a hill,across a double yellow line.I see this at least once a week on 381 going to work.

I come on this site at times,then go for a while and ignore it. I wonder,though,if some of you have no life to speak of. There are a few that have to spend each and every and all day on here espousing what they believe to all the others. Are you shut-ins? Bed-ridden? In jail? Nothing better to do? If you are in one of these categories,I feel for you and express my condolences. Some of these have but ONE thought in their brain,ie,all judges are crooked,all cops are bad,etc and etc.Well,I have a peculiar trait on here,also. I like to type something to P--- someone off,then never look at the rep

I think he was fed up with "political correctness".He asked a Hispanic woman,who had several kids,if she had a husband.Also asked if she had a job.He caught flack from the media about this.We need more like him.I saw him wanting the people in the courtroom to see the true character of the players.

New Hope and Crossroads has them. Figured it was meth labs.

The gun didn`t do it. The shooter did.I`ve had cats killed by cars. Wanta ban them?

Do yankees up there go to work in the face of a blizzard wearing shorts? And don`t even have sense enough to carry a jacket? Like they do here? Then blame it on the Gov?

Zimmerman was told not to follow by a 911 dispatcher,not a cop.He did not have to obey.He had neighborhood watch training,which instructed him to keep the suspect IN SIGHT,if he could. Zim allowed himself to get too close and let the episode escalate. Zim was his own enemy. As for ASSUMING,you and others are guilty of this on this site.You and some others have ASSUMED that I`m a cop. Not so.Never have been. My background I will keep to myself.

We need that old chicken place back that was where the closed Huddle House is.What was it? One of my kids worked there after school. What was it? Jax?

None in camo?

I was not a fan of Zimmerman,but I support the verdict based on that one case..Trayvon was a codiene addict and a freshman gang-banger. He was carrying the watermelon tea and Skittles. This,mixed with a codiene cough suppressant, is know on the street as "purple drank".
