  1. You can send the donation to the school or to the central office. Either way its appreciated. I am trying to get a full list of items to post for folks to buy and drop off at the school. If the item is too big let me know and I will come by and pick it up. If someone has these items laying around the garage or shed that would help a bunch.
  2. I will drop off water hoses this afternoon. Anyone else want to donate something on the list PM me.
  3. I hope they release all of the details about the bid process.
  4. Generally, Insurance companies will not agree to lower the limits on a home that has a mortgage. Do you own the homes free and clear? If so you will have some options in terms of shopping for new coverage. If you have the mortgage, some companies want to protect the interests of the mortgage company.
  5. Fantastic article and movie. I am happy that SC is honoring those hero's of the civil war. A lot of the soldier were from the South but were recruited in the North. Glory is one of my top ten all time war movies.
  6. Maybe you should just contact them and let them know that you have identified yourself in their advertisement. They may have tried to contact you and could not find you. If you let them know that they have misappropriated your image without your consent then they may be willing to work something out.
  7. That sounds like a great program. Technology is revolutionizing higher education delivery.
  8. You are better off asking the PD office in that particular jurisdiction. And please don't let anyone tell you that public defenders don't do a good job. The level of service varies from across Counties.
  9. You are welcome. Now go out and recruit more citizens to our cause. Preferably those who will not read the fine print in the enlistment contract and will just make their mark. (Georgia style!)
  10. Lucky, I like your spirit! Fight first and grammar second. You are hereby promoted to Private First (or last) Class. Keep it up and you will be a Sgt. by the time the shooting starts!
  11. Consider this an open letter to the citizens of Paulding County. It has recently come to my attention that tensions are currently mounting with our ungrateful neighbors to the immediate North. Despite our numerous and repeated overtures of friendship and peace the State of Tennessee has brazenly refused to give us back the water that is rightfully ours. We have a god given right to waste our water and theirs too. You would think that a state that was given to making a certain type of smooth liquor best served in mason jars would understand our needs and wants. We have given them plenty
  12. Try the Cora Lee Institute in Smyrna, GA
  13. Most laws are written by attorneys, that does not make them bad!
  14. I have to go with Clint. The spaghetti westerns were some of the best made. The lack of true dialogue was was what made the man with no name movies great.
  15. Ever consider growing a beard? More men are doing it and it seems to be more professionally appropriate these days.
  16. Thank you in advance to all of the people who performed their civic duty and voted. I also want to thank those people who campaigned and advocated for a candidate and a position. No matter your political perspective or ideology you have added something to the discussion and process that is invaluable. Despite the any differences in opinion people who advocate for something have more in common than the man who cares for nothing.
  17. I am not going to express an opinion on the matter one way or another. But I should point out that the Federal statutes will pre-empt any states legalizing of marijuana and or trying to make it a low priority for law enforcement. Or in other words, there is too much federal money tied up in the war on drugs.

    HOAs

    HOA's are only as good as the people that run them. If done properly they can be good tools. Unfortunatley the majority of them are mismanaged.
  19. For the most part, we don't really know what all the rules will be. The enabling legislation states that the Charter Commission will apropriate rulles and regulations once the amendment passes. "http://www1.legis.ga...text/hr1162.htm (HB 797)" It also states that best practices will be set up as they move forward. Most think the Commission will operate along the same lines as the old one but it has yet to be determined.
  20. I will do my best to answer some of the questions. Fist let me say that I support the right of the citizens to vote on the issue. 1. Charter schools are not set up or equipped to take all children. Most charter schools are structured around parental involvement. Thus if a child has no parents to be involved in the school they would not be a fit. 2. Charter schools role, public vs. private has not been clearly defined by the legislature yet. I suspect that they will get around to telling us what the legal definition will be some time soon. 3. The enabling legislation does not c
  21. It is super important to get out and vote today. Turn out matters in local elections so call and email everyone you know and ask them to stop by after work and vote. Oh, and thank you to all of the candidates who ran for office. Win or lose you enhanced the process and made our community better for it.
  22. It means the person runnign for that office can live anywhere in the County. All the other BOE members have to live in a specific district.
