  1. http://youtu.be/AUfpfOU_4IY A relative sent me this. Enjoy.
  2. Just found out about this: CELEBRATE THE MILITARY CHILD, Saturday May 3, 11:00 am - 3:00 pm at Piedmont Church, 570 Piedmont Rd, Marietta, GA 30060. Georgia National Guard's Spring Fling, as part of Month of the Military Child. The Spring Fling is a special event for military kids, because when a service member puts on a uniform, the whole family is being asked to serve...even the children. Children serve by enduring long separations from their parents, numerous school transitions, and many other unique challenges. As a result, they are often called upon to overcome adversity and demon
  3. Voted Monday by the Courthouse since we were getting our Tag renewed anyway. Only one person in front of us. This year I've developed a nocumbent policy. Time for a change.
  4. Went into a supermarket this morning and, on the way in, saw a Mom putting one of those kid-ride-in carts with the seat on the bottom back into the arrival area while holding her young daughter's hand. Thought she was leaving. Then she picked her up for a minute --- I guess she didn't like the cart. Then, the strangest thing happened. She put the girl down and she started to run all over the produce section barefoot and the mom didn't do anything about it. We expected the kid to fall or pick up a bunch of germs from the floor. Didn't fall. Don't know about the germs. Eventually
  5. The Express Bus From Hiram by the theatre goes to the Five Points MARTA station, where you can go to the airport. Used to do that from the Marietta Express Bus Stop a bunch when I lived near there. Get a free transfer from one to the other. Weekdays only.

  6. From the way he was dressed like a video game character and that he was a quiet kid, do you think he played a lot of video games? Is banning violent video games against the constitution?
  7. With the old Paulding Hospital, we were transported to Douglas Hosp, by ambulance. wonderful service, free parking
  8. Good thing there wasn't a trigger-happy officer around. When he took it out to show the officer, he could have been shot.
  9. Didn't think this would be part 2, but Got this message from our D-I-L: Three year old grandson "has been acting out at school, hitting kids and kicking them. We have put him in time out, taken toys from him and talked to him. Nothing has been working . I have been in contact with his teachers via email and in person. We thought we can try karate for him?" (1) I don't think karate will help, only make him capable of inflicting more injures. (2) Possible real cause is our son continuously hollering and hitting him when he misbehaves. (3) Reason son does this is because of st
  10. The food at The Steak House is really god and the staff is great too. The Pizza Farm is good and fun, but don't order the Pizza and I never ordered the steak there.
  11. I have a relative up North who wants to buy a foreclosed condo in Cobb County in order to come down here for at least a few months a year and work as an OT --- he did it a few years back, staying at our daughter's home, enjoyed it and wants to do it every year. Realtor says he can't purchase the Condo, which was a foreclosure, unless he lives in it full time??? Really? Is that because it's a foreclosure?
  12. Yep, Got 5 $1K BofA Money Orders from someone as a retainer to purchase my home in Marietta. Pretty much suspected a fake. Brought it to BpfA in the morning and, of course, it was fake. Don't try to deposit, even at BofA. before verifying or you can be held liable for trying to pass phony currency.
  13. Saw it on the GM FB Page. I posted on a few of the local Patches.
  14. You might want to change the heading to: "Going to Panama Beach next week???" The current heading won't make many folks click!!!
  15. Last year was the first year that my wife had to take a required mandatory distribution from an IRA, which in year one, you can do until April 1st of the following year. So she did it in January 2014. Question is --- Does she have to put something on her 2013 tax return about that? From what I've seen, the withdrawal gets included in the 2014 return as income, but how does the IRS know that she took the distribution for 2013 by April 1st?
  16. When my wife was diagnosed pre-diabetic a number of years back, we went to the Wellstar diabetes class near Cobb Hospital and she's kept her levels down by following their plan. Call 770-956-STAR (7827) and enquire about the next scheduled class. Your physician can refer you to the class as my wife's doc did.

  18. Cedartown has the fastest service, but Dallas will have service soon I hear.
  19. I've suggested he sell the house and move into an apartment, it's in a nice area and paid off, but the house is in his Mother's name, and he won't transfer the title because he fears the IRS will take it. He has a lawyer & accountant he says, of dubious knowledge I say, The one handling the estate messed up a few things including not sending notice to the company in charge of his Mom's accounts (insurance, pension) For that, I had to get her birth certificate from NY when I found out. When she passed away, he thought the hospital would take care of everything --- we had to drag him to
  20. We saw him and his wife who saved him when they were performing in Cedartown a few years ago. Had a great time. He and Shirley going at the same time is quite sad. He will be missed.
  21. Got one on our roof that keeps coming back. When another one was in the back, we used to put out a plastic owl on the deck, which worked. Now one's on the roof at the front of the house and don't know what to do.
  22. Love your family is a rule, I think? Advice Needed. In my 70s, things are starting to pile up on me. It seems that every time we turn around, another family member is in trouble. Over time, I am going to present a series of problems that I wouldn’t mind getting some opinions about. In any case, this will give me a chance to vent. (1) My cousin on the other side of Atlanta. He’s in his 50s. His father was high up in the FDA and the family travelled to several areas until settling down here, until he passed away several years ago. He graduated from Georgia Tech, but settled instead for me
  23. The musical Annie is at the Jennie Andersen Theatre by the Cobb Civic Center in Marietta and it's terrific. Don't miss it .
  24. That's what they said when Sam Champion came on board from the local ABC station. Didn't take long for him to drop WABC.
