    Geeze, why are these things always on the wrong side of town for me?

    Yeah, but that was probably more than 10 years ago, when Atlanta had less than 3 million residents. Traffic wasn't quite as much of a **** then.

    By the way, Lithia Springs is closer to the downtown than I am. I'm another 10 minutes up the road.

    Yeah, I know. I always thought it was funny that people from Lawrenceville and the like thought Lithia and Douglasville was soooo far from Downtown. hehe

    I'll be in Atlanta at that time. Count me in.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    Thanks for the head's up EB. I'm kind of in audio purgatory in the 'ville.
