Not last night, but this morning (a little after 6 a.m.) I saw something with what looked like a blue blinking light fall out of the sky. I was driving south on 278 toward Hiram and it was in the sky to my left. It was at a distance so I didn't hear anything, but I thought for sure I would log on here after I got to work and see something about a plane crash. Then I chalked it up to my eyes playing tricks on me. Then I read this thread.

Thanks for the information! It was the water main, I saw them repairing it after I left the house for work. All is well and right with my faucets now, thank God. You forget how amazing it is to have running water in your house until all the sudden you don't.

Thanks for the information! That would do it.

Just a tiny trickle of water coming out of the faucet this morning. I'm located in the city limits sort of near the hospital. Does anybody else have this problem? I had water still around 11 p.m. Yes, I paid my bill.

Not so sure about t-shirts, but definitely tote bags. Reusable bags that you can bring in full of trades and leave full of new goodies!

That's exactly the issue then. Xfinity is digital only; Comcast sent me about four warning letters letting me know about it. My TiVo has two digital tuners. You may want to be sure U-Verse is compatible with your TiVo; I know mine is only good for cable.

Do you have a dual-stream Digital Cable Converter card in your TiVo? Maybe it needs to be recalibrated? Our TiVo still records on both tuners after the switch and we don't have any internet issues. We're just trying to get used to the new channel line up. Any time I've had problems (and I had a lot getting the TiVo set up), the people at Comcast's tech support were surprisingly helpful. All of my problems have been from the people that actually come to the house. If it's something you can get resolved over the phone it may not be such a pain in the butt.

The chickens probably belong to a neighbor. I grew up in Stockbridge and the house across from my high school had chickens that invariably wandered over to visit.

I haven't called that number, but my dad was talking about this the other day. He said when you call, it's automated, so you have to speak or dial for the options... except the speaking part rarely works. And he loves that if he calls it in traffic to find out what the deal is, the automated voice will tell him all is clear...

Check out their Facebook or Twitter pages; that's where I've seen them post deals in the past. I think all of their summer specials are over now that the kids are almost back in school. I know they did have a "Mommy and me" special where a child's admission was free with a paid adult, but I'm not sure if that's still going on.

I took Spanish as a continuing education course at Clayton State when I lived south of the city. I'd imagine other colleges offer the same type thing. It looks like KSU has continuing ed classes for Spanish: http://www.campusce.net/Kennesaw/category/category.aspx?C=13&S=151

The thing is, unless she has something in writing, it's a "he-said-she-said" type of issue. Unless other employees are willing to vouch for her, but they may be afraid of losing their jobs. If she could hang on and record this activity it may be more fruitful. Doesn't the law in Georgia say that as long as one party knows it's being recorded it's legal? (Please correct me if I'm wrong)

I understand where she's coming from. I'm a KSU student and seeing the people that slip through with good enough grades to reach their final semesters really disappoints me. It makes me question the value of my education. I think it's a generational thing spurred by No Child Left Behind. It's more like No Child Will Get Ahead. I have so many comments/thoughts on this issue...

That would be much better than the hour drive to get to the Starlight. I love the drive in, much more than sitting arm to arm with a stranger in a crowded theater. I love getting to bring take out sushi and wine (though not in a glass bottle of course ) and enjoy a movie with mine and my husband's commentary. No shushing, no having to shush others.

Transformers II at the Starlight. I haven't made it back lately, but I love that drive-in!

Yes! The "e" on the end gives it much more distinction (like shoppe, olde, etc...)

Ack, 11 Alive is a joke... My pet peeve, since I'm originally from south of the city, is the way the news pronounces McDonough. IT IS NOT McDUNuh. </rant>

I got rear ended one day in stop-and-go traffic on Barrett. I kept watching the lady behind me in my rear view because she was just texting away.... sure enough, she hit me. I got out, there was no damage and I didn't want to be late for work so I just told her to have a nice day. She kept about a three car-length distance from me the rest of the way down Barrett while keeping her hands firmly at 10 and 2.

I had a friend get a ticket on 75/85 for crossing the gore a few years ago. He went to court thinking he would have it dismissed, instead he walked out with an almost $1000 fine because the judge hates it when people drive across the gore to cut her off in traffic.

What I meant by my State Farmers Market like the grocery store comment was that it's not all local. I my whole point in going to the Marietta market to support Georgia farmers. You might be interested in this thing I just signed up for: Farmers Market Baskets. They pick up from the State market and you can pick up at their warehouse in Kennesaw on Thursdays. It seems like a good deal, but I can let you know how it goes.

The Marietta market had greens, some onions, beets and one vendor had tomatoes grown in a greenhouse. Oh, and some awesome strawberries. Of course, they also had a couple vendors that get their things from the State Farmers Market, which is pretty much the same things you'll find in the grocery store, so I try to avoid those. I am eagerly anticipating summer squash and tomato season!

The huge sign I saw when I passed said it opens at 8 a.m. (I can't remember when it closes... maybe noon?) and it was Saturday. I spoke with somebody from Turtle Bend Farm at the Marietta market and they said a new market is starting on Thursdays in Rockmart. I can't remember the time, but it is during the day.

So I saw the Dallas Farmers Market sign yesterday on my way back from the Marietta Farmers Market... Did anybody go? Which farms were represented? Anybody with other goodies like bread, honey, jams, ect.?

The illegal immigration blame lies on both sides of the aisle. The easiest way to get rid of the problem is to vote with your dollars. Don't buy from producers, stores or companies that use illegal labor. There are plenty of large, well-known food processing plants that truck people in from Mexico. Illegally. The government turns a blind eye to the companies and deports the labor, to which the companies just go and get more of.

Let's be clear on KSU's real involvement in this situation, because the media have SERIOUSLY blown that out of proportion. Here is Dr. Papp's response to the allegations that KSU is behind keeping Jessica here: http://www.mdjonline.com/view/full_story/7394798/article-KSU-s-Papp-gives-his-side-in-case--of-illegal-student?instance=lead_story_left_column
