  1. Have you ever gone in there to order a couple breast tips and misspronounce it? Has that ever happened to you? It happened to me.
  2. Surely you jest. I do know of a funny (true) story about a preacher who needed to use the restroom really bad during his sermon. As soon as he finished the invitation he quickly walked to the door, down the hall to the restroom where he let out a huge sigh as he relieved himself. However, in the sanctuary there was this loud moaning coming over the sound system. The preacher had forgotten to turn off his wireless mike.
  3. Shall the Act be approved which provides a homestead exemption for senior citizens in an amount equal to the actual levy for state ad valorem tax purposes on the homestead?" The referendum appears to be on state ad valoren taxes, not county taxes, or am I missing something here? Why doesn't the tax commissioner's office know anything about this? http://www.legis.ga.gov/legis/2005_06/vers...HB_848_AP_6.htm
  4. Milk used to sit on your front porch at least that long. (You don't remember that - do ya?)
  5. These guys are one of the best now! I love eating inside there. They have plenty of people taking your order (as opposed to ONE person at Wendy's) and then they bring your food to your table. Now that's service! (At least that's the way they do it at the one on 278 by McDonalds and Walmart in Hiram)
  6. In Floyd county it not only depends on your age, but also your income. Once you're both 65 your income can't be higher than $10K. SCHOOL TAX EXEMPTION - AGE 75 a. Requirements: (1) Own your home and reside in it during the year in which you apply for the exemption. (2) Owner must be at least 75 years old on January 1 of the year of application. (3) Total income of both spouses and any other family member living in the residence (such as son, daughter or other relative) cannot exceed $30,000 from all sources, including social security and pensions. b. Amount of exemption: All of t
  7. Even with the new 2400 perfect score the highest school in the state just score 72%. When I was in school, that was a failing grade.
  8. Well, if it's turning into a beer joint, I know we'll never be going back. Too bad, because it was a nice non-franchise place that we would bring people to that was different. Sad, that places lose their vision just for the almighty dollar.
  9. These same drivers that ignore these traffic control markings also ignore the parking control markings in shopping centers. These same drivers probably don't realize that they are NOT supposed to change more than one lane at a time on a multi-lane highway. These same drivers probably don't realize that they are NOT supposed to move to a deceleration lane or from an acceleration lane across the solid white line. These same drivers probably don't know what that stick thing is that is attached to the left side of their steering wheel column. These same drivers probably don't know that the
  10. My trimmer just quit in the middle of maintaining my yard. I called Subby and he had my trimmer repaired and as good as new in no time flat. THANKS SUBBY! My wife said, can't you fix it. Sure, but I don't have time and I'd rather help out somebody, especially if they know what they're doing. I won't have any problem taking any small engine thingamajig to Subby.
  11. We went through there Saturday afternoon/evening and I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. My neighbor thought that the road was still closed because she thought the water had actually lifted and moved the bridge over.
  12. I'm amazed that the police just don't shoot people in the legs when they try running from them. That wouldn't be lethal force then would it? If nothing else the police could yell "Let's see you dance!" while shooting at their legs and feet. That would make a great episode for Cops.
  13. We ate at Mellow Mushroom yesterday evening. They had soft drinks in cans for $1 each. They use hand sanitizer in the restrooms and have the water turned off to the sinks.
  14. What a marketing gimmick this could be. SIX FLAGS UNDER WATER Come out this weekend and have the experience of a life time! All of our rides are 'Water Rides'! Don't forget to hold your breath as the coaster dips under water for a truly new ride experience you'll only have here at Six Flags Under Water! You just thought you screamed on the Great American Scream Machine. Try screaming 'Under Water'!! The Dahlonega Mine Train truly simulates a ride through a Flooded Mine! And you really have to try the recently updated "SplashWater Falls"!
  15. Not true. If the car is obeying the same traffic laws as the bike and the bike violates one of those laws and runs into the car then the driver of the car is not at fault. The case with 'pedestrians' is that the car will almost always be at fault - like even when they are not walking in a crosswalk. But bikes don't have that same privilege or exclusion.
  16. I rarely see anyone stopping at the 3 way stop at Swan Dr and Lakeside Drive. Not only do most people run the stop sign they are running about double the posted speed limit. The problem is neither the SO or the HPD will do anything to stop it. I guess somebody's going to have to be killed first.
  17. Not wanting to offend anyone, but this was a show about "talent" and not about "need" I felt that Skinner didn't have what it's going to take to make it in the long run. I listened to his first song and you could tell that he had practiced that one for years, but the other songs he did were very pitchy at times. He wouldn't have made it on American Idol since they have judges there aren't tone deaf. Skinner might be able to get an album produced since it can be done with lots of practice, studio magic and such. But for him to be able to make a go of it, live, on a Vegas stage, singing for an
  18. He made guest appearances on 1960's TV shows such as " The Beverly Hillbillies," " The Dick Van Dyke Show," "My Favorite Martian," "F-Troop" and "Bewitched."
  19. I'm waiting for them to start supplying it in an IV bag!
  20. Part of it is what the road was registered with the state at. Nebo Road used to be 50 and then they did some repaving and changed it to 45. But I think they ticketed someone and when it went to court it was discovered that the signage did not match what the state had. Paulding either had to change the signs back to 50 (which they did) or petition the State to lower the limit on that road. - At least that's the jist of what I read in the paper.
  21. Maybe it was some of those "run flat" tires that have the self-sealing stuff inside. I wonder if that would really work with stop-strips.
  22. I've had a NavOne unit from Cobra (the guys that make radar detectors for cars). My dad and brother-in-law both bought one just like mine. Everyone I've showed it to likes it better than Garman and Tom Tom. I've had my NavOne updated a few times by connecting it to my laptop (or desktop when I bring it inside) and updating the software. They did a map update not long ago and sent out the update DVD free of charge. All I had to do was request it from their web site. It has a lot of user options and map options so you can tailor it to your liking. You can set what I call the "Nag" featu
  23. The commercial that I like regarding Condoms is this one. But now you made me go look for the one you referred to
