It's not the money in Monopoly that makes people mean, it's the game itself! Honestly, who's completed a game of Monopoly without at least one person pouting and two arguments breaking out? LOL. I think some people may get power-hungry when they're given money, but money itself doesn't. Money is not the root of all evil, the LOVE of money is.

I agree that there's still hope. I try to be polite to everyone. I don't get in the check out line at the store or go through the drive-thru while on my phone. I think cell phones started the mess. People can access you 24/7/365 and people feel obligated to answer. I've had many people answer their phone while I'm trying to get medical information from them, only to tell the person on the other end "I'll call you back, I'm at the doctor" and hang up. While I appreciate that, why did you answer it? I tell hubby all the time if I call and you're busy or in a meeting, don't answer it. Voi

Argh!! People are just so rude so much of the time--why? Driving is a good example of this. Riding home from my son's baseball game, we came up to the 4-way stop at 61 and Nebo. The car coming the opposite direction stopped, we stopped, the car went through the stop sign, we start going--and the car behind them went through the stop sign, nearly hit us, and blew the horn at us when they ran the stop sign! If we hadn't stopped in the middle they would have T-boned our car, yet they were mad at us? I had a new patient in for testing and the parent never put down the phone (playing Candy Cr

Pay attention to the ads that pop up when you're online--they'll be for whatever you've Googled lately. It's scary how much the internet knows about you. P.S.--I like curly fries.

John Ratzenberger. He's in all the Disney/Pixar movies.

Like I saw on Pinterest--a combination of spider, hornet, and lobster, with a dash of nightmares.

I keep hoping they'll tear down the KFC in Dallas and built a Mrs. Winner's in its place. One can only hope that Mrs. Winner's will come back. Or, better yet, a good, locally-owned, mom and pop restaurant with good food and good prices.

If it's every other weekend and you're not seeing her at those times go after your ex for contempt of court. Violating the court order is a big deal. Ask if a neutral party can review your financial records for the monthly payment amount because the custodial parent's income now factors in to the child support payment. Good luck. My cousin hasn't seen his son in over 4 years because his ex moved out of state and refuses to let him see him. She hasn't given the new address, or new name (she remarried), and will not come to GA to let him visit.

Find the remote.

Call the police, file a report, and have them put an alert on all the credit bureaus and with their bank.

Yonder is a direction, and is usually accompanied by a finger point in the direction of yonder. I'm proudly born and raised here and married an Ohio/Michigan man myself, so it's interesting sometimes. I think the biggest Southern one, besides y'all, is "Bless your/her/his/their heart" especially when saying not-so-nice things about someone. A former coworker from Philadelphia pointed that one out to me, and a classmate from Kenya mentioned that we say "ole (old)" in conjunction with big, such as "big ole truck".

The director admitted saying he wanted it to be the least Biblical Biblical movie ever made. I lost interest in seeing it when I heard about the rock monsters that help build it.

I was run off the road late one night by this idiot in a red Chevy pickup truck and yes, I called 911 with a complete description and tag # and direction of travel. He'd illegally passed me on a hill after flying up behind me so fast that I tapped my brakes to make sure he saw me. He flew past me and flipped me off, then slammed on his brakes right in front of me. This was 61 at Hiram Sudie. I stayed back but he kept slamming his brakes on so I'd hit him. I hung way back but he kept slowing down. We got to 278, I got in the right lane, he was in the middle lane sitting still, and waited

Mojo, I loved the Dallas Seafood place but have stayed away until they pull their scores up consistently above 95. Grumps, the catfish at 61 is good but the past two times we've been there, under old and new management, it's taken over an hour to get our food. The last time we had a question on the menu regarding a price difference with no clear explanation between the two, asked two different wait staff and never got an answer. Everybody is very nice in there but it's kinda slow. Food's good though!

I fourth Pat's. 92 and Hiram Sudie.

Route 61? If you don't mind waiting a while!

Why I do declare, it was so cold and windy the other day that teenage boys pulled their pants up to their waist! Bless their hearts! You know it's a might chilly when you can't see their boxers!

Medical and education professionals are mandated reporters of child abuse. A former coworker of mine saw a parent shove and punch a child. It took 2 days to get through the DFACS hotline to report it. A follow up letter from the state was supposed to detail how the home inspection went; the letter was never received. One month later the same parent and child was back at the same facility and acted like nothing had happened. Ideally the child's interest should be the top concern for the legal system but it's not.

Not hocus-pocus at all. They're doctors that specialize in the spinal column similar to orthopaedic doctors specialize in the bones and joints. Think of it similar to braces. The orthodontist applies metal strips to the teeth which gradually align the teeth. The chiropractor manually applies the right pressure to the back to get it back in alignment.

I'll tell you who NOT to use if you want.

I went to Dr. LaRoss behind Eckerd's (or is it Rite-Aid now?) in Hiram, behind Dunkin' Donuts. He did a full history, neuro/ortho check, exam, x-rays, and put me on the TENS unit for pain relief. I go back for my first adjustment and can't wait. My insurance covers it--yay--so I'm happy. The TENS unit is the electrodes they put on you that use electrical impulses for pain relief. Before anybody starts on the snake oil pitch, the surgeon that did hubby's carpal tunnel surgery prescribed him one for post-op pain management. Hubby used Dr. Ben Connor and he doesn't do x-rays which is a red

It's too random to safely keep her. There's a huge liability if someone got bitten badly or sued over a bite--it had happened repeatedly with your knowledge and you did nothing, so the attorney would have a field day with that. If it had been an aggressive breed (pit bull, doberman, the ones that are always in the news) the bite victims would have had the dog removed at the first offense. I'm not trying to yell at you, and I realize that's how this is coming across, but your own post stated there's no pattern to the bites so no way to try and prevent it from happening again. I'd see if som

X-ray and adjustment on first visit? Hubby used a chiropractor in Hiram (has moved a little farther out but still in Paulding) who doesn't do X-rays and that bothers me.

When I got married and moved out to Paulding, I did a change of address form for just myself, yet my dad gets junk mail with our address on it all the time. I'm still trying to figure that one out. Bills and important mail still goes to him at his house, but the junk is addressed to him at our address--and he's lived in the same house for 31 years!

Okay, I've needed a chiropractor for years but it's finally at the point where I can't put it off any longer. Who do you recommend (or run from!)? Preferably, one who does X-rays, adjustment, and the electrode thingy on the first visit. Thanks!!
