    Man those are both great deals. Hopefully someone checks them out. I don't have time to look into them myself (or the room on my deck). I would be a little extra cautious because they do seem too good to be true. 

    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    Jimmy has a bunch of eggs that he doesn't use... I feel like you might get mugged if you show up there.

    Not true. It was just moved to a new building at the Atlanta History Center. Not sure if the new facility has opened yet.

    Sounds too good to be true.  I wouldn't go without asking someone in law enforcement to tag along.

    Ok..not specific enough I guess. The "cyclorama" at Grant Park is gone. They moved the 'Painting" to the history center. Like all other Confederate artifacts and history, I don't expect it to be on display long before they remove it too.

    The worst part of living in metro Atlanta is the run off election for Congress. I want to vomit every time I hear Jon Ossoff and Karen Handels name.

    It's the TV, mailers and billboards. There's no escape. Supposedly more money spent on this congressional seat than any other in history.

    While in town last weekend, due to some of the fellow Lakearoo  folks telling My Beautiful Wife about a Frontgate store being relatively close by, "we" had to go.
    I had lived in Metro Atlanta back before the Olympics, and the traffic then sucked worse than everything that had ever sucked before, combined x 100.
    Then I found out it was off 400. In Alpharetta.
    I threw up a little in my mouth.
    She had to go. We did. 1.5 hours later, (and that was great traveling time after church on Sunday) we got there.
    My Beautiful Wife: "Is traffic this bad all the time?
    Me: "It's worse." "This is one of the best times to travel on 400 in daylight."
    My Beautiful Wife: "This sucks."
    End of conversation for awhile.

    Agree, but in The USA, based on my travel, Atlanta has got to be top 5. I would add LA, SF, (Bay area), DC?

    The problem on my side of town is that you take one of the most congested interchanges in the state and now you add a baseball stadium and 40,000 people at rush hour that nobody wanted in the first place. Couple that with the delays from the construction of a toll road that will cost $15 per ride. Three years of construction delays and counting. Good times in Cobb County. 

    The wife and I were blown away about light the traffic was on 400 at 3:30 Friday PM. We can't wait to move over there.
