Appreciate some of your sentiments, but have a question...What in the world is a "Petofile"....someone who has a fear of "high" gasoline prices? You might try "spell check" next time.

Excuse my attempt to elevate your thought process by using humor - I guess I have to spell it out for some people. I do not have a problem with Law Enforcement going after petofiles - I do however feel this is a job that can best be handled by the GBI or FBI rather than a grand-standing Police Captain using city money for his own glory.

Someone has to wash cars, serve in fast food joints and do manual labor. These kids will fit the bill. Think of it thi

By taxing consumption, rather than income:

FOR INDIVIDUALS:
* No more tax on income - make as much as you wish.
* You receive your full paycheck - no more deductions.

Fact #1: Kevin Duffy did NOT file a request per the "Open Records Act" to find the Invoice for a uniform allowance. That is a FACT. Check it out if you wish, I DID-

Because I'm a nerdy kind of person and just love doing spreadsheets etc I worked out a spreadsheet to compare investments under the 2 systems - here are the results based on investing $50/month for 20 years at 5% - you would have approx an extra $7,500 to pay for your child's education - with no restrictions on use etc. I live in Florida and we have Florida Bright Future scholarships which pay full tuition and fees - but if you started out putting your money in one of the education IRA's and your child got the scholarship you would have to pay taxes on the whole thing because you can only use them for tuition and fees and that is being paid for. So much less complex to save your own money the way you CHOOSE to. Here's a copy of the spreadsheet:

Question:

Has anything that has been posted on this forum changed the way you voted in this last or any past election?

Since I am sure some others will ask questions on posting, again, I thought this blog might help.

Hey, Cal, I am sure you have sticky or announce abilities. How about making this one or the other to keep it from falling down the page?

Anyone else notice that the speed limit on Rockaway has changed three times in 3 weeks. Went from 45 to 35. From 35 to 45.

May have been asked, but I didn't see it.

What is to stop the Big Companies from transferring sales tax, that would otherwise be paid by CEOs, to the consumers by making such as cars, planes and such compensation?

Does this site deactivate you after a certain amount of time? I click on reply and formulate an answer and then preview it but if it has taken me a while to write the reply it seems as though the post doesn't go through. It looks like it went through but instead of my name it has anonymous for the name and it is is never posted.

just check out the following link:

Man the smell is bad tonight, we have not smelled it for a few days to this degree and this might be the worst night yet. I assume they are making up for the lost processing time when the media and the PSC reps from Washington state were here. Can't process when the big dogs are around, they might get a little sick you know! Anyway, I took my son outside for about 1 minute earlier, he is 2 1/2, and before we could get back inside his eyes were swollen, puffy and red. But PSC is not still processing I forgot....yeah right.

Is anyone else puzzled why we need to increase taxes to add more police to the Peachtree City Police Dept? It seems to

I've been reading a lot about this "Fair Tax" but I can't find an answer to a question I've got.

On the www.fairtax.org site under the Frequently Asked Questions is the following question and answer:

People do not realize the power a forum has.

I started one, for another purpose, and it is not the biggest out there. But it is KNOWN. It has influence.

I dont know about the rest of you but when I go into a publixs my wallet is empty when I leave. There prices are cray. I can go to Walmat fill my cart up and spend half what it would cost at publix.

What was her role in the Sheriff fiasco?

Well, she did says this about the issue.

Just so you guys know, two years ago, I made a conscious decision to always vote for the candidate that Cal Beverly did not endorse.

Well let me start by answering the question: NO!!!!!

I will expound on this. Mr. Dunn, before the election of this past Tuesday, was an ardent supporter of all of the N. Fayette residents that have recently be forced to live with the obnoxious (if not dangerous) cloud and stench of the chemical eminating from within Fulton County just to our north. Mr. Dunn said that he would do everything within his power to resolve this problem.

Forget the election results. Forget the Lebanon issues. The dream has come true. NOW you can finely drive from Newnan to Fayetteville on 4 lanes.

I've always paid close attention to our local government. Never have I been more frustrated than I have been with the current County Commissioners (as well as many other Fayette County residents, apparently).

Folks, guessing may be fun, but it is pointless.

We will see.

But let us have the smarts to keep an eye on things from the beginning. Don't let how the Commission functions fall off the radar.

With Maxwell ousting Dunn on the Fayette county commission, here’s what we can expect:

(1) The immediate result may be a very discouraged Linda Wells who might well be considering leaving her post with Dunn at the end of the year, giving up the fight one way or another. Remember Harold Bost, who resigned a few months after being reelected. Talented as she is, Linda may well decide she does not need this job and the aggravation of putting up with the senile Herb Frady.

The new area on Hwy 92 South in front of the Police station was intended to EASE traffic. This is a great idea. Someone should have notified the IDIOTS who drive that strech of road daily of that idea. If you are traveling south on 92, you come to the traffic light and there happens to be a line of cars in the right hand lane and you move to the left hand lane to help the FLOW of traffic you would hope that when it comes time to merge over into the right lane someone would allow this..........WRONG WRONG WRONG.

PUBLIX ALERT!
I recently wrote a check at Publix on 54 for an estimated $21.00 over the amount of the grocery purchase last week. I was hit with a service fee for doing such a thing. I only noticed it when the cashier counted my change back to me. Old saying… ”no shirt, no service”, New saying…. “You charge fee, no more me”. No notice, no warning, no apologies, just be aware that Publix on 54 (at least) charges for writing a check over the amount of the purchase.

Generally the incumbent gets their maximum votes in the primary, that leaves the Smith and Chapman votes and that will b

What a sad little man. At least you're in love with yourself----no one else is!
