  1. Try the sporting goods store in Douglasville...Gables 770-942-5371
  2. It's only hard on a vehicle if they're speeding....
  3. Somebody at Chick-Fil-A must have attended a 'Hotel' Sales Seminar....Front desk people say that all the time...
  4. Not trying to be a smartass...but isn't it possible that you already know who they are? I mean if they have your kid's cell numbers...how can you not know who they are? Tell your son...to take the asswipe's pix next time, b-4 he slams him against the wall... You can find motion sensitive cameras at sporting goods stores...they are for game spotting..get a couple of them and place them near the areas where these punks are getting in.... http://www.cabellas.com I can tolerate a lot of things but a thief is not one of them....
  5. You have to have 100% agreement by property owners to get them installed. Not very likely as some believe they take away from the desirability of the neighborhood... We have the same issue with speeders in our neighborhood...some of the biggest offenders are sub-contractors and Garbage trucks. If you have a 'blind' side street talk with DOT about a stop sign...this might help.
  6. Yeah...so do I...and the nose dive the stock market took when the e-commerce bubble burst!
  7. Some like to refer to us as senior citizens, old fogies, geezers, and in some cases dinosaurs. Some of us are "baby boomers" getting ready to retire. Others have been retired for some time. We walk a little slower these days and our eyes and hearing are not what they once were. We have worked hard, raised our children, worshipped our God and grown old together. Yes, we are the ones some refer to as being over the hill and that is probably true. But before writing us off completely, there are a few things that need to be taken into consideration. In school we studied English, history, math,
  8. I went to the Cartersville office...no lines there either
  9. Yep...it helped with the weight loss regimen I have been on for the past 1 1/2 years, ever since my doctor told me to get it off. I used to be 265...but now I am at 220...not too bad for 6'3"...I want to get back to around 200-205...and keep it there. Finding clothes that I haven't worn for 6-7 years is just like buying new stuff! I haven't worn suits for years but now I have about 20 that fit again...
  10. Just stay on my Yogurt-Oatmeal-Grits diet...I guarantee you will loose weight...Keep you regular too! So far the upside is...I'm wearing clothes from waaaaay back in my closet...
  11. And the stores on the square are way cool! I was looking in a small glass display case filled with small items and trinkets. I remarked to my wife...this looks just like what was in my Grandmother's kitchen drawer!
  12. Next you're gonna tell me that if a tree falls in the woods and there is no one there to hear.....it still makes a noise?
  13. My diet has mostly consisted of: Baked Sweet Potatos Cheese Grits Scrambled Eggs Oatmeal Campbells Tomato Bisque Soup Peanut Butter Yogurt Soft Fruit Bars A few Milkshakes And an occasional...slice of bread I'm ready for a couple of Varsity Hot Dogs and a few Cookies from Bumble Bee's Display cases...
  14. And I think.... I Just MIGHT be having A... BUMBLE BEE BAKERY ATTACK!!!
  15. I agree...Hightower MARTA Station is half-way there and it isn't in a very good area. I wouldn't want to leave my car there for 1/2 hour much less all day! There is PLENTY of parking near the GWCC and it is a 'Little' safer than out on Hightower Rd. http://www.centennialpark.com/maps/parking.html http://www.gwcc.com/directions/Default.aspx
  16. Both excellent points.... We can only hope that this mid-year election, with National significance, brings out the vote...Also we can only HOPE that the electorate will become informed about who is running, what they stand for...And YES whether or not they have been arrested! Thanks to Pubby for allowing this forum to exist allowing facts like this to be presented...If only there was some way for every resident of PC to realize this site exists... A BILLBOARD Perhaps....at the intersection of 278 and Hway 92! I will be the first to send a check for $25 if someone will start a
  17. Yep...especially after the story breaks about 'ol Roy...and that thing in the McDonalds bathroom in Mableton...
  18. Yep...THAT's where the SUDDEN STOP comes in...The vehicle has 'crumple zones'. The human body...not so much!
  19. Mr. D...I'm afraid your reference to Delta-V might be 'over-the-head of most... Delta= Change V= Velocity of an object...in this case the Vehicle So...D-V = Change in Velocity of the vehicle...
  20. There I made a couple of corrections for you... Speed does NOT decrease visibility... Speed does NOT decrease reaction time... The greatest single-cause of accidents IS...Lack of Attention to the task at hand! i.e. Distracted driving... SPEED in and of itself, does not contribute any more to accidents than does Yawning...except for the distractions of everyday...Radio, AC/Heat adjustments, Cellphone/Texting, yelling at the kid, and ANGER...etc! Thank You,
  21. OH Michelle, Michelle-My-Belle.... "If you take a photo of me eating a cheeseburger today, I’ll gladly return your camera on Tuesday." Michelle Obama, like her husband, enjoys a good burger, but not as well done. The first lady brought daughters Malia and Sasha to former “Top Chef” contestant Spike Mendelsohn’s Good Stuff Eatery in DC for cheeseburgers, onion rings, fries, and milkshakes. “They got the burgers medium,” says a spy. (President Obama was mildly ridiculed after ordering a burger medium-well in January.) “Three starving Secret Service guys were literally standing ov
  22. I was just going to say that...Dis, thank you. Besides with all the traffic lights and turn ins on 278 how can you get up to 70 in the first place... Now headed out the opposite direction toward the new Airport...that is a different story...and IT IS heavily patroled...I saw 2 vehicles pulled over between the airport and Dallas earlier this week! If you are gonna chance it get a good detector...just best to stay around 62...which is fast enough to get where you're going...and ain't nobody gonna bother you. Do you realize that 8 MPH is only 704 feet/minute...in other words eve
