OK here's a long one.

What are the chances of a guy like you and a girl like me... ending up together?
Well, that's pretty difficult to say.

Hit me with it! I've come a long way to see you, Mary. The least you can do is level with me. What are my chances?
Not good.

You mean, not good like one out of a hundred? I'd say more like one out of a million.
[pause]
So you're telling me there's a chance.

No offense to you GA people but everytime we drive through the savannah area on our way to wdw it smells really, really bad. I couldn't stand that. Gotta have my fresh mtn. air.

That's all our pollution from Atlanta. We ship it South so we don't have to smell it.

I love our land here, and I have had a hard time finding something comparible. We have aprx.4 acres(mostly wooded) and the house 3000sqft. We don't have any neighbors, that are close to us anyway. But we are only 6 mins from town. The area where we are is nice, it is just the cost, schools, opportunities, etc. that are lacking. I actually would give up some of the sqfootage of the house, but I do like the privacy we have with our land.

Does anyone think some of these companies might be leaving one state to go to one with less taxes?

Check out area's north of Atlanta. Nice traditional homes, larger lots (if you buy a home that is around 5-15 years old), good schools. Closest thing we found comparable to Dallas!

Understand that I've lived in Georgia all my life and in the Atlanta area most of it. I currently live northwest of Atlanta.

If you live in the 'burbs and work inside the Perimeter (what some of us call I-285), be prepared for traffic.

I really like the city, but the morons that drive here are bad enough. If it rains, the moron factor multiplies exponentially.

From my handle, you may realize what I do for a living. The weather isn't bad here, not too hot (mid 90's) in the summer, but the humidity can be oppressive. We handle it rather well for the most part, but can really suffer during times that it stays below freezing for more than a day (the record was about 30 hours that it didn't get above freezing about 3 years ago).

I can really hate this city, but I can really love it too. Does that make sense?

We're kinda secluded to. The only people beside us is my BIL and his family. We're way off the road. Great for the kids. I grew up in the country as well so i don't think i could ever live in a city.

The Flame knows all my quotes. Maybe we are one in the same

But you said you'd eat whale blubber.

She'll be eating blubber all right, just as soon as I free "Willy."

DH commutes down 400 ...but at flexible times so its not too bad. If Mike does any commuting on the north side of Dallas from Mesquite, he is probably familiar with that kind of traffic...ugh. We only have a 1 acre lot, but the neighborhood is beautiful with the trees and views of the mountains from higher area's in the neighborhood. The house prices are similar to Dallas up here by the lake...but a bit higher closer to the city.

Haven't had anything interesting pop up for the Atlanta area. The real problem is that a great number of the jobs that fit my current field are on the west coast or north east. Just no wanna go there.

Where did you live when you were in the Dallas area?

I feel the same way. My brother lives in Boston and loves it, I could never do that. I like the small town, outskirts kind of place. I don't like being far from things, but I don't want to be right in the middle of it all either. I guess, I just want my cake and to eat it too!

Anyone watching idol. Why is Carlie in the btm 2?

 

[kc5grw]

Because these are the same people that eventually elect our representatives.

 

[Rhonda]

Because these are the same people that eventually elect our representatives.

LOL!

She should NOT be in the bottom 2! But people forget that this is a SINGING competition, not a popularity competition! Jason should be going home tonight, IMO!

I'll share your face for that traffic!

We lived in Firewheel just north of 190. Think about the taxes also...we paid $5200 a year there...here it's only $1300! If you don't mind me asking...what is your field? Lot's of technology here similar to Texas cities.
