It's not that I like Fall so much, as I like the 'Change' to a moderate climate. In my senior years I find myself staying indoors more and more during the summer heat, which drives me crazy with boredom. But the advent of Fall doesn't have all the magic it once did. The smell of burning leaves, the start of football, the coming of 'Halloween'. Now football starts in August, you get a ticket for burning leaves, Halloween is an excuse to sell candy, and I don't even like to go to the mountains to see the fall colors because of all the traffic. Growing old sucks,,, but I guess it beats the

So what did the judge do with the Bozo parents? Dismiss the case? Continuance? ??? Someone is guilty of the assault of a minor, and needs to be in jail. The thing I would watch for, is that they figured out they needed your address for food stamps, maybe they figured out that having custody of the baby means a monthly check, which may be the motivating factor in jumping through hoops for the court. They're thinking they have a year to clean up their act, and make a play for custody of the baby, and maybe the three year old as well! Both of you need to bide your time, the fat lady hasn't

Don't forget the "General" at Big Shanty. The museum is five times the size it was in the late 70's, with one full room of hand's on displays for kids. The museum now has some sort of affiliation with the Smithsonian. It's well worth the time.

It's the race scene from "American Graffiti"

I just went through this process with my son's Saturn, I got off light with $1000 dollars for the engine and installation. I encourage you to do the research for an engine replacement, and then use Kelly Blue Book to arrive at the current net value. Put all of that on Craig's list, take the best offer, and donate that if you like. It's a giant Win-Win-Win,,, you get rid of it, someone gets an easy project, and the charity gets more money. GOOD LUCK!

My brother-in-law is a semi-retired bugman, and he has always recommended neck breakers for mice and rats. Don't throw out the trap with the vermin though, rats and mice are more attracted to a used trap. Bait them heavily with peanut butter. You can even use the peanut butter to lube the release action if it is sticky. What I think you will find is that our current cool spell,(if you want to call it that), is causing vermin to search for winter shelter. Nature forces them to go someplace warm, and dry, after which they forage for food. Cats are a good deterrent, but if you can't stand ca

The whole thing makes me want to bite nails in half! If I got a gore violation, then everyone who drives through the gore should be ticketed, no exceptions. I do have a problem with where they put gores and how big they are, like at 92 north and Macland rd. Why didn't they make it one long left turn lane? When I asked the deputy why he didn't go to 92 and 278, he acted as if it would cause too much trouble,,, maybe too much congestion if they tried to write that many tickets???? Maybe we should contact the State Patrol, they seem to take things serious.

"I guess I'm fair to middlin" "If you can't run with the big dogs, stay on the porch" "That dog won't hunt" "Don't that knock your hat in the creek!" "His daddy didn't get a real good toe hold, Bless his heart." "There come up a bad cloud" "Motor won't crank" "Cut the light on or off" and the obligatory- "Hey, Y'all watch this!"
