I miss Paulding.com! This new format is confusing and people can't figure out how to use it. I almost couldn't find where to start a new topic. I liked the old "tree" structure where new posts appeared on a line with comments and replies on a line below it and replies to those directly below those. And you saw those as soon as you came to the site, none of this "Click here for new activity" stuff. Different forums were easily found. I'm not the only one having trouble by a long shot. Look at how many people have posted "How does this work?" and "Does this thing still work?" and how nobody else

I saw a listing of hate groups in Georgia on the news tonight. Don't remember the exact total of all of them but I do remember that they reported and highlighted that the number 2 group was "White Nationalist" with a total of 5 groups. What they didn't mention was that their chart showed 16 "Black Nationalist" groups. What are we missing here?

Finely hand chopped celery, not masticated in a food processor. Finely chopped red or yellow sweet onion, again by hand. DILL pickle salad cubes, not relish and never sweet pickles, Yuck! Drain as much of the juice off in a sieve as you can. You could hand chop the pickles but it's a lot of work and messy. From a jar works great. Diced chicken, rotisserie is great, white or mixed with some dark. About equal amounts of all the vegetables, and about twice as much chicken. Fold in Dukes Mayonnaise to the consistency you like (Lots!), you could use another brand but why wa

I just bought a case of beer from WalMart and upon opening it I found a card from Grace Baptist Church notifying me that God loves me, and everyone is a sinner, and Jesus died for my sins. Does that include having a beer? Who goes around sticking these little cards in cases of beer. Didn't make me want to go to church, just made me think that they're a bunch of fundamentalist fanatics.

I'm really sorry to say this but this guy had absolutely no business being there! So he thought it was his duty, like so many others, to bring religion to a people who had lived in peace for hundreds, maybe thousands of years according to some news reports. He wanted to save their soles by teaching them about sin and guilt and burning in hell forever if they didn't believe as he did, something that they had never even conceived of before. They had lived happy, disease free, GUILT free lives without being infiltrated by outsiders, and they knew it was better to keep it that way. Again, I'm sorr

So it was 106 degrees yesterday. I saw that it read about 96 today around 10:00 am. What did our taxes pay for this thing, and what are we teaching our kids: that it's OK to present wrong information? Come on people, it's a school!

Have we totally forgotten about Paulding's great contribution to the film industry, our wonderful, state of the art, movie studios? I go by there nearly every day and see nothing, nada, zilch, going on. Glad to see that we spent all that money to build it and then never really bothered to promote it. Now who's paying for it?

Are there any choral groups in Paulding where one can join to sing? Not strictly religious (though I love gospel music) but also secular, like including popular music, showtunes, folk, country, classical, whatever. Also, has anybody thought of going caroling this year? I did it many years ago when I lived in a large apartment complex in Atlanta and some of the older residents actually cried. I'd love to do it again.

I hate being nosey but the place on Old Villa Road with the metal barricade type fencing and skulls has fascinated me for years. Every time I go buy it I wonder who lives there. Is it an artist, or just an eccentric, or what? I don't have any problem with it, in fact I love it, but I'd like to know more about it. Anybody?

This morning I bought an induction cooker (actually two of them) at Aldi for $40. I was getting ready to write a long review of it, but my spaghetti sauce is almost ready and it's time for supper. It has 10 adjustable power levels from 100 up to a full 1800-watts, and temperature settings from 140 to 460 degrees. I've checked out several brands and this one has everything and more than the ones costing three times as much. Aldi apparently only releases products like this once a year, so if you don't get it now you won't get it for another year. I bought an InstantPot electric pressure cooker

No problem with air, but I find I'm having trouble buying table salt now since they found out that it can be used as a lethal ammunition.

I applied for a credit card while there and got a $20 instant credit so it actually only cost me $20. I've had at least that much fun from it.

I'm almost embarrassed to post this because it sounds so silly, but I bought a Bug-A-Salt gun at Cabellos.. My friends ridiculed me for wanting one, but now they can't wait to get their turn with it. It looks like one of those plastic water shooters, but it's an air gun that shoots a little pinch of salt and splatters flies anywhere they land from about 2-feet away. You fill a hopper with table salt (good for about 80 shots), pull back a lever to cock it, take aim through the sights, and BAM!, that fly is history. Doesn't matter if he's in the corner of a window pane, or sitting on your coffe

That's exactly why I'm so upset about this whole incident. I would have had no problem whatsoever if they had done that to me, but they didn't. They watched, waited, let me go on through, then ran out and got my little knife. Then instead of telling me that they had taken it the first time I asked, they started spouting off things about "doing their job" and "must be secured in your vehicle" and "abandoned on government property and must be confiscated". When I went back to get my knife the next day and brought up this very point of why couldn't they tell me they were watching, the supervi

I went to the courthouse to renew my auto tag yesterday. I parked pretty far down in one of the spaces next to Veteran's Park. Knowing that I would have to go through security, I left my phone and everything that was in my pockets and just carried in my glasses, wallet, paperwork, checkbook, and car keys. I didn't know I would have to take off my belt or I would have left that too. When I dropped everything into the basket to be x-rayed the officer noticed that I had a little Gerber keychain knife on my keyring and said, "You'll have to take that back to your vehicle". I asked if I could ju
