  1. its not out of alighnment but the way the hood is shaped it feels like it to me i was just wondering if its the same for all people or if im just crazy

    I don't think your crazy,,,,,but you might have been standing too close to the microwave too often.

  2. YOU OBVIOUSLY DONT KNOW THE WHOLE STORY MR!!!!!!she was shot by a man who was supposed to have a fake toylike gun but he had a real one and it justt happened to be tara SHE WASNT THE FRIST ONE IN THE LINE i no this because i was a close friend but the point is this could be classified as murder!!!

     

    After a little over a year since Tara's unintentional shooting, I'm amazed at how many folks I still meet who don't know the details and facts. Even among the Law Enforcement Community, there is a lack of information. No one wants to perpetuate gossip and no one wants to dishonor law enforcement as a whole.

     

    Possibly someday, all of the details will be known by all.

  3. I have to go to a Board of Equalization hearing soon because I appealed the so called value of my home to the tax assessors office. They claim that my home rose in value $17,000 since last year yet there are 7 homes for sale in my sub-division that just won't sell for less than what they say mine is worth. No doubt a direct result of all the new homes going up all around me. Who wants a 12 year old house when they can buy a new one for the same money or less?

     

    There is one that has a lot more rooms and square feet and is newer that has been for sale for about a year priced at over $10,000 less than what they say mine is worth. I hasn't sold. Plus there is a house that has been empty for 2 years and an eyesore that only recently did someone start fixing it up (HUD).

     

    There are only a couple "like and similar" houses in this sub-D and they aren't selling for what they say mine is worth, one is still for sale and is identical to mine except the floor plan is a mirror image of mine.

     

    I said all this because I feel the county tax folks are deliberately over valuing our homes so they can extort more tax monies from all of us. If my property rose in value that much I'd sell it tomorrow, to them! I guess they figure that most folks won't press the issue and will give up, especially if they have to go to court over it or a hearing like mine.

     

    I need to ask if any of you have had this experience, particularly speaking before this board and arguing your case. I need advice and pointers if any of you have any you'll share. I can be represented by someone but don't know who that would be. A lawyer would cost me more than my annual property tax anyway so the point would be moot.

     

    Any help will be greatly appreciated; I just want to pay my fair share on a house that's worth about $145,000 at best that they say is valued at $157,000. Thanks from Southern Oaks...

     

    Does anyone know if there is a deadline date to file an appeal????

  4. I think there were som big wigs from Washington down for the opening of the Powder Springs spur of the tunnels. It was in the AJC that it was supposed to be this weekend sometime.

     

     

    You'd probably been able to remember better details if you weren't on the medication. I missed the AJC article myself, but had heard the same story from some other folks.

     

    Has anyone talked to the tunnel boss lately?

  5. Thanks for remembering New Hope,,,,we sure miss ya'll.

     

    BD is well,,,having the standard great time.

     

    I'm not sure how tomorrow will be, but I know I will talk to her sometime. The first few weeks up there, she called home almost everyday, sometimes twice. Lately, we're down to maybe twice a week.

     

    We're a little apprehensive about tomorrow. We have a couple planned things to do but we're staying within sight of exits just in case.

     

    Please tell Mr. F. hello for us. Keep doing what you do. It's never a small thing to impact the lives of our next generations and ya'll do it better than anyone else.

     

    For Mrs. Jack Russell,,,,the bricks are $35 for three lines of engraving. They will be gathered in the main park entry area surrounding a multi-tiered "celebration fountain". The park concept sketch is on the web site also.

  6. Yeah, ain't it great!

     

    Sometimes you worry me, son.

     

    And then I realized that your probably feeling good from post-surgery-pharmaceutical-allocations and are stuck watching TV commercials you've never seen before.

     

    NAAAHHHH !!!!!

     

    You still worry me, son.

  7. Oh, that hurt! Looks like we got a spanking last night. We didn't play well & UGA brought it to the house. Congrats to UGA (Gawd, I hate saying that!).

     

    That's OK. Give us another year or two. All we need is an offensive line, a tail back, linebackers, cornerbacks, punter, defensive line, kicker, full back, & a few reserves --- oh, yeah, & a QB.

     

    I want to extend condolences too,,,,,,,

     

    After seeing the QB sneak-thing-went-bad,,,,,I'd add "coach" to the list above too.

     

    Did I say that out loud,,,,man,,,i hate when i do that,,,,Sorry,,,,I couldn't stop myself

    1969 Plymouth Road Runner 440 cubic inch engine + 6 barrel carburators.

    I'm teaching him to ride a scooter,,,,,it'll be kind of like a stupid pet trick thing. Of course I will teach him to be safe and courteous and not park his scooter at the hitchin' posts. Wouldn't want to have to bail him out over some silly city ordinance or anything.

  10. That is stated in the OP. My question is what is the difference between the $100, $250, and $500 sponsorship levels, other than the number of tickets included.

     

    I think the theory is that this is a fundraiser for a good cause.

     

    you know,,,,,"Ask not what your Booster Club can do for you,,,but ask what you can do for your Booster Club"

  11. I agree, SoapMom. So beautiful. I was VERY glad to see Daniel and Ryan there. It made me feel better to know that they were ok enough physically to be there.

    BTW.... Can anyone tell me who the women were who led the service for Rianna? I mean.. I know their names but are they part of the ministry of West Ridge??

     

     

    No relation to the West Ridge Staff, Family, or Membership.

     

    West Ridge simply provided a facility large enough to handle the anticipated gathering.

  12. CW & Heartstar,

     

    Sometime in the future when you read this post, my hope is that it will comfort your hearts. The last few days, I have struggled to write this as my heart has been broken and is in agony. We lost our daughter this past year suddenly and tragically and I have been re-experiencing many of the emotions.

    By now, you have experienced every emotion possible in every range possible. Undoubtedly every thought imaginable also. Some have said that "they know how you feel", others "that can't imagine how you feel", and some say "there is a plan". Even when these offerings of support and compassion don't seem to fit, know that the reason they are there is because they love you and care deeply. They want to be there for you and help. No one can "fix" what has happened, but their love for you is precious and you already know that.

    The Staff at WestRidge has been a tremendous source of strength, grace, and compassion for us. There have been a number of families at West Ridge that have lost children during the last couple of years. The Staff has experienced the sorrow and pain with each. There is no question in my mind that they have already been or would be open to you also. Their compassion for people is not their occupations, it is who they are, it is how they live everyday. They are truly exceptional.

    A couple of days after we lost our daughter, the lead pastor shared a thought with me that is still with me today, 10 months later. There is a novel being written. It began at the beginning of time and will continue until the end of time. The chapters in the past are history and the chapters in the future have not yet been read. Along the way, there are chapters that we do not like. If we had our choice, we would not read them nor would we even put them in the novel. We don't understand why they are there. They don't make sense. You might even say that we hate these unwanted chapters. The unfortunate reality is that they are there. If it were possible, I would personally remove this chapter for you because I know your pain. But I can't. It's such a helpless feeling sometimes. The only hope we can have is that someday, we pick-up the novel and begin to read again. We are changed, we will never be the same, we may never be able to fully accept the unwanted chapters, but we eventually begin to read and live the novel again.

    Please know that since this past Thursday, there are those of us who have never met you and have never had anything in common with you until now, but our thoughts, prayers, and our hearts are focused toward you. I pray that you are receiving comfort from all of your family and friends. I am sure that you are currently being overwhelmingly covered with their love. I pray that in the next weeks, months, and years that they continue to hold you and be always in your lives for support.

    With all of our hearts, we commit our thoughts and love in your direction.

  14. Like Rev said, mama was probably too busy partying and didn't realize baby was eating her stash

     

    There's a difference between reckless stupidity and intentional harm

     

     

    I don't know Les,,,,

     

    I lost my daughter this past year to "reckless stupidity" and it pretty much feels as if it was "intentional harm". The damage is potentially the same and the periforal lives affected are the same. There might be a call for a longer amount of the same punishment for one over the other.

     

    The key is, the apparent illegal activity of the mother, was directly responsible for an extremely high risk to the child. When someone makes intentional, personal choices, personal volition, that is neglegent in either violating laws or rules, there should be a more severe judgement criteria than that of a total and completely unforeseen accident.
