I love that you know that song
I like sending cards, but the higher price of cards coupled with the always rising postage prices, keeps me from sending them as often as I used to. My exception is at Christmas, and even then, my mailing list has been drastically cut.

The 21 age limit has been in place since the beginning of time, HA HA How and why is for another discussion but it was established eons ago as that is when a person is (key word) supposed to be a responsible adult. \

Georgia lowered the minimum legal drinking age to 18 in 1972. It was one of 24 states (18 states lowered it to age 18 and six lowered it to 19) that reduced the age between 1970 and 1973. The state’s minimum legal drinking age was raised from 18 to 19 in 1980. In 1985, it increased to 20 years old, and became 21 in 1986. Georgia was one of 16 states that increased its minimum legal drinking age from September 1976 to January 1983.

I'd prefer an intense audit AND regular visits. Hire more inspectors to get the job done.
posted @ Saturday, September 29, 2012 - 14:24I have instructed my family to lie if I die from this. I'd hate for a mosquito to take me out.
They are to say something like..she got killed while robbing a bank .. with a flame thrower..and a sickle (took 2 swat teams)
Is this a fountain designed for people to play in..or is it meant to be just for looks?
posted @ Saturday, September 29, 2012 - 11:44Police on Tuesday charged Dorsey with making false statements and possession with intent to distribute marijuana, both felonies.
How did they arrive at these charges..did they take the word of the theif that he was selling marijuana?
“From calls that were made on the phone and other evidence, we were able to make a case that Roberts committed the armed robbery and Dorsey lied about what actually happened,” Holeman said.
???..do they have recordings of calls with him stating he was bringing the drugs or something?..doesn't really add up to me.

It would probably be about as successful as the go nowhere solar business 'existing' in Lexington Ga. The expense of installing the necessary panels/equipment won't be recuperated for a long period of time.
It's great if the company installs at no cost, or a very comparable rate to getting standard electricity,..otherwise most won't choose it, or spend the $$ to change over. Most will probably be afraid of change..but I do hope to see good things to come from this.

The Ku Klux Klan is no longer a stable organization..shrinking at the rate of 221 to 152 chapters in just one year. They are just trying to remind people that they exist, in order to compete with the other hate groups on the rise.

As a huge Backstreet Boys fan, I was little perplexed on reading Nick Carter?s book. It?s not like reading a book about Elvis Presley or The Beatles. I didn?t live through those moments. I didn?t see them in person. But as someone who has followed Nick?s career since I became a fan in 1998, not just in the Backstreet Boys, but as a solo artist, I?ve always thought we had a lot in common besides being the same age. read more

The Athens Banner-Herald sports staff combined to win 11 individual awards on Sunday at the Georgia Sports Writers Association's annual meeting in Marietta. You can get a few more details on that in this story ? "Banner-Herald sports staff wins 11 awards" ? and I thought I'd provide some links to the winning stories for the curious. The awards were for the sports staff's work in 2012. read more
