It's all up to YOU! See you there!! ***************************************************************************** BANNING THE HOT DOG?? YES, the American Academy of Pediatrics says we SHOULD! They want us to change the shape of them!! This is AMERICANA!! And besides, 23 people in Canada under 14 died from choking last year..on food..How many on hot dogs? 1? So how many in the US? 10? The A.A.P. says whoever sells these new hot dogs is going to be "very successful".."going to make happy parents". This has got OBAMA's name all over it! WHO knows better than how to make and sell hot dogs..and make a profit..than the AAP?? We can call them "Obamadogs" or "Idiotdogs". Did you see the Russian Skating Couple on the Olympics that did an "Indian Dance", where the guy dragged her by her hair, they mimick the hand over the mouth Indian "woo-woo" thingy..and much more..This takes "Blades Of Glory" to a NEW LEVEL!! Also: We talked about the latest on the Elaine Lucas State Ethics Commission report, Obamacare, Harry Reid saying we need Obama's "Jobs" bill (it's a jobs killer) b/c unemployment leads to more domestic violence!! (JUST like Obama using you as a member of the military, and when you come back, labelling you a terrorist..here, Obama keeps you unemployed, then calls you an abuser), and CAT CASSEROLE!!
CommentsLarry GrayConsolidation is a step in the right direction, to save the city and the county. Warner Robins is now saying they are in financial trouble. Gray has been in financial trouble for a while. Consolidation will will limit the number of people involved in the dissension process. This will make for better government. Lilly Oh Karen, they are cocktail weiners, this is the MOST RIDICULOUS idea, Stupidity is killing us, but you are a lawyer, nuff said Larry Gray danger8, I know they screen, but it can be done a lot better with about a hundred dollars worth of soft ware, maybe a little more. I posted two post this morning. One shows up. Yesterday some of one persons and some of mine where left off. If a word limit is in effect, then post it, and the number of words we are allowed to post by the dictator Krok. Its his show and he will ask the question. Unlisted Poster It is not just the city and county raising tax. The republicans in the Ga. congress want to raise taxes. If things are as bad all over the state and the country, as we are being told. Then a Tax increase is coming and that is it. Saying no is not going to change a thing. Larry Gray Consolidation is a step in the right direction, to save the city and the county.

How's that hooey, dopey change Realist Remember that old TV commercial: "American as hot dogs, apple pie and Chevrolet"? Well, Obama took over Chevy, and the AAP is after hot dogs. Apple pie, beware! Excuuuuuuuse me Consolidation is idiocy. Bob Hey Larry why not start your own blog....web site and pre-done blog sites are cheap. No Krok censorship via the character limit etc.... Marcus We would have never been in this mess if we had voted David Corr for Mayor in 2003 and Maurice Atkinson for County Commissioner against Joe Allen. Larry Gray excuuuuuuuse, it would be idiocy if we did not consolidate. One big opportunity missed to help fix the financial situation our commissioners, city and county, have us in. This would include the not just the present but the past also. We have a great Mayor, who has great vision for the city. Lets back him up. He is no dummy. Saying no will not change the Tax. Its coming. Lilly Realist; what's next M&Ms... incognito Consolidation is not the answer. If you mix gray paint with gray paint.....you get gray paint. The city of Gray is not in financial trouble. They actually have a surplus. The city of Gray stays within their budget and the some recent city official actually tried to lower taxes incognito The only good thing that may come out of consolidation is that it opens the door for a larger selection of elected officials. Maybe a mayor can be chosen from somewhere other than the 1 or 2 neighborhoods that aren't taxpayer funded. DangerB Fortunately, I've always smashed up my hot dogs into hamburger patty shaped bits of meat. NO. NOT really. They better keep their hands of my apple pie. Dontize Hughes Vote for me in the next City Council election and WE the people will turn Macon into a beautiful community, with focuses on our history, Arts and Science, restoration of downtown, and attract good paying jobs to this community. But this can not happen if we rely solely on City Council and the Mayor to make the changes. It starts with US. WE vote them in, WE can vote them out!!! DangerB I'm pretty sure the screening is done without hundreds of dollars of software. It can be done through e-mail, where the blog admin can "approve" or "deny" the comment, or it could be done through the blog host itself like blogger or wordpress; where everything you need to "screen" comments are accessible right there on the host's site. There really isn't a need for expensive software. DangerB Another thing to consider is spam. Nobody wants to check in on a blog and see it flooded with paragraphs of incoherent babble as some nitwit tries waxing philosophy. Also; consider this: Does Krok run his own site? I mean, is he the one who does all of the site admin stuff? Who knows. stuckinmacon why don't they stop trying to consolidate & raise our taxes, and instead cut business taxes & try to attract new big business to Macon? big businesses are leaving cities that are increasing their taxes. they need to look at where big business is going & why. it's a no brainer... J Bauer We need to show up at these Tax Protests. The Bibb Co Commissioners could rein in this incompetent Tax Authority and letting them unfairly hiking up property values. They need to hear from us on March 16. This is the lowest level of tax oppression that we can pushback against! Thanks, Krok! Add a comment! |
