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

But we have a Movie Studio! How much more cool can you get than that?!!

I've liked the scent of Pine-Sol since I was a kid and I use it around the house, especially to wash my dog towels and animal bedding. I bought a new bottle a while back and noticed that it didn't smell at all like the old stuff. The new bottle even said "ORIGINAL" on the label but the ingredient list showed absolutely NO pine oil, just glycolic acid. I found that because so many people have complained, you can buy the "original" formula directly from Clorox online at an inflated price and shipping, but it now only contains 8.7 percent pine oil, not 15 percent like before. So I guess Pine-Sol

I bought a rotisserie chicken from one of our local stores because it was convenient and actually less expensive than a raw whole chicken. I've always thought that was strange. Could it be that the fresh chickens that are about to go "unfresh" are put on the spit? Anyway, I just noticed that the label stated that it was "gluten free". OMG!!! Am I to realize that for all of my nearly 68 years of life that I've been being poisoned by all of the "gluten" in chicken??? How have I survived? I love me some chicken! Seriously though, when I see a label like this on a product that advertises

I think I'm hearing fireworks tonight in my neighborhood, not little sparklers but big BOOMERS! How can that be? I thought that our righteous lawmakers in Georgia had made fireworks, and the fun of using them, illegal many years ago. Could it be that people are buying them in our neighboring states and are breaking the law by bringing them here? Surely not! (I hope you realize that I am being totally sarcastic here. I love fireworks, and am studying how to make them myself, but I'm afraid to do it because of the laws surrounding them. Is anyone else here interested in forming a pyrotechni

I had a trigger-finger release done on the ring finger of my left hand about four years ago. Had earlier had a steroid injection which did absolutely no good and was one of the most painful things I've ever had done. They held my hand down, sprayed a freeze spray into the site, and jabbed a needle the size of a nail into my palm to inject the stuff. All it did was make my whole arm go numb for several hours and then sore for a couple of days. I did think that the freeze spray was a great idea. I can't imagine what it would have felt like without it! Since it didn't work, I had the surgery se

Hey, thanks for the compliment! I thought long and hard to come up with a screen name that was hillbilly and redneck enough for the majority of people on this board to relate to and take seriously. It came from a used car lot, not far from here, that I remember from many years ago. All of the names from Honey Boo-Boo, Duck Dynasty, and Jerry Springer were already taken.

I'd love to see all law enforcement, national guard, military, etc., just pull out of Ferguson, MO before the release of any verdict. Let the public know that that's what's going to happen so they could get out if they want to, and then just let these peaceful protesters rule themselves for a couple of days. It'd be sort of like if you gave a party and nobody came!

I would like to make it a hobby. That's the actual reason I made the post, to find out if there are any others out there interested. I did a web search first and it turned up hundreds of images of White Chanterelles, so they do exist. I've uploaded pictures of these in the member's gallery under Bubbadoo's Mushrooms. They're not as pretty as they were yesterday because it's been hot and dry. PS. In my original post I was trying to say that I'm growing she-tock-ee and oyster mushrooms on logs, but it automatically changed s***aki to cheezeaki. Funny!!
