Yup. A sweet, slow-speaking southern friend of ours said "It's a wise decision to keep a pump action shotgun. Cuz it don't matter if you speak French, German or Chinese - CHIK-CHICK - is a universal language." You come in my house illegally, you'll only get one warning - THAT sound!

I like The Kimmer's method: Upside down in an oven bag, with celery, onions & carrot and 1/2 a bottle of white wine. Add wine every hour until the bottle is empty and then baste when desired. SUPER moist and flavorful bird and the best gravy on the earth!!!

How very sad

Will do.

Let's say "Seasoned" Word is the Region I Council vote was 22 to 1 in favor of Metro. Now it goes to Dr. O'Neal's office.

I am his Bible Babe!!! Yay!!!

No worries! The similarity in names confused lotsa folks who knew the Old Metro

With all due respect, you are incorrect. MetroAtlanta Ambulance never bought Puckett. I believe you're thinking of plain ole Metro Ambulance, started in the 70's by Edgar "Bo" Pounds. Mr. Pounds sold Metro to a consolidator, CareLine, in 1994. Said consolidator also bought old Puckett, old Central and 3 other small, private ambulance services. Therefore, Steve Puckett, sold his business to CareLine, Inc. CareLine was then acquired by a larger consolidator, MedTrans MedTrans was then acquired by Laidlaw, the former parent company of American Medical Response (AMR). It wasn't

An FWIW: the BOC has absolutely NO say in any of it.

Another vote for Advanced Eye with Dr. Fierce. He's wonderful!!!!!

The Transportation Committee vote was 5-0 in favor of Metro BUT it now goes on to the Region I Council to decide on the 24th. EDITED TO FIX THE ORDER OF APPROVAL.

Regardless of what a County wants, it's the governing Region Council that opens zoning, sends out a Request for Proposal to any/all ambulance services who are free to bid or not. Tis the law. For Paulding, that would be Region I.

Not anymore. Patch reported a 74 today.

A classic replete with "shovels and rakes and implements of destruction."

Wood or plastic?

See, you learn sumpin new every day!

Technically, no, horses cannot climb. But it's called that because the holes are very tiny and not even a small human's foot would fit in so, therefore, they cannot climb it. It's the safest for horses, since no hoof could fit in - especially a shod hoof, wherein you run the risk of a horse yanking off the shoe, along with half their hoof wall or heels.
