Damn it I'm pissed !!!! Last night my passenger side window wouldn't move. Messing with it, it just fell through to the bottom of the door. So we went to bed. I last saw my truck at 11:15. At 0715 I went outside to warm up my truck for the 9 y/o's ride to school. I opened my front door........both doors were opened. I looked inside, Garmin GPS - gone- pocket knife - gone- grandsons brand new baseball bag with brand new cleats, new helmet, new glove, new cleats, new bag,gone. All totaled $1000.00 worth of the boys gear gone.......papers everywhere. I called the cops. Mad as hell! My neighbor came down, his vehicle was broken into too. Cop gets radio call, 2 more burglaries......man this crap never happens to us ........ Time to show them punks you don't mess with this neighborhood. Time to start guard duty. Not on my watch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2GF,

That's a crappy thing to happen.....get together with your neighbors and start a street patrol and maybe a few webcams wouldn't hurt either.

That sucks for sure. Hopefully you can catch the scum that did this. They certainly deserve everything the law can throw at them...

As a side note, my place is under constant watch...I use Foscam ip cameras inside and out. Their cheap and built with fair quality.

That sucks!!!!!! With any luck you'll catch them and opportunity allows you to take out some pinned up anger and frustration on their noggins. Nothing worse than F'n thiefs. Hope your DA has bigger stones than ours, he won't prosecute car theft or robbery because the best he says he can hope for in a conviction is Possesion of Stolen Property. Not a sexy enough conviction worthy of his time. Thiefs love him!

Pretty much the same here. The local cops are just not interested in doing much. They rarely even take someone for drunk driving. Most of the crime here in my little town in Maine isn't even reported...

Haha that's a good one Jeff who would play me in a movie? Hhhmmmm Clooneys a good choice. I'm in my 50's but yet to have gray hair, but a full head of hair ( thanks grandpa) Hugh Jackman? Keanu Reeves? Jason Statham maybe...... All can be the quiet types in their movies. Believe it or not, around folks, I'm quiet, keep to myself.But none have Southern accents like me

if you have full coverage insurance you'll get new stuff, or your home insurance should cover it at home I think

#3 , seventies. Little value as it's well worn and it and it's siblings were exposed to conditions books never should be.
After a couple court ordered get the %@&* out's there was only one survivor.
Likely an out of place vagabond in a box vs a library that was not moved orderly and efficiently.
Fragments of stuff dragged on ahead.
Gee , maybe we're not so different than books sometimes.

How FoxFire came about is a wonderful story; I would have been in on that College Project!

A coupla links to look over....

(Links are lighter in weight and are easier to move, especially when you absolutely BETTER GIT! NOW! Been there, done that. OH! THE STORIES!)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foxfire_(magazine)#Books

https://openlibrary.org/works/OL16480925W/Foxfire_3

Still, I'll protect and keep my First Editions like:
Bugliosi, "Helter Skelter" and Capote, "In Cold Blood," to name a couple.

And I also learned, the hard way, about climate control for books, albums, etc from having lived in basements. Some that were not quite finished, if you know what I mean...

At one time I think I had 8 or 9 of the FoxFire books. Yes, they were also well worn.

Best,

Scott

Unghh. Be draggin if I pulled that anymore.
You can borrow my hungover go to work song ..I ain't needed it in a while but headache days it gets used still.
The horns somehow help when trying to keep up with notes.
Distraction perhaps...

Never let your horns keep you from wearin' a hat!



(Sorry, just could NOT resist!)

Best,

Scott

Ya , hats off to Mr. Wiggins for bridging some gaps , and some chinking where needed too.

 

[AU24K]

Hey Scott. I liked your Appalachia paper. Here's my issue. You have people like Bradd Pitt Angelina Jolie and they go to these third world sh@tholes to get kids.....if they really wanted to help why the hell don't they go to Appalachia?

You're asking me? I don't know....

Perhaps...

Their career has suffered some hits. They play the bleeding heart libs into absorbing the mainstream media published by libs and Hollyworm. It is all a "veil of altruism and benevolence cloaking self idolization and narcissism," hopefully raising their self-esteem and persona.
And maybe get to read a few more scripts....

But, what do I know?

I'm just a poor College Student.

My


Hope I didn't get too "political" and offend anyone.

If so,

Well,

We can continue in the political thread that I post in.

I'd be glad to hear your ideas!

My Best,

Scott

 

[AU24K]

Jeff funny you should ask that . You are the second person this week to ask me that same question . I have thought about writing a book but I don't think many would read it. I do however have a title in mind. If I ever wrote a book I would call it " Sympathy for the Devil " yeah let that sink in for a few minutes........thanks friend.

Personally, I thought of this title:
"A Stroll Through Hell."

And have that restored diving helmet on the cover!

My Advisory Fee: $0! (Well, maybe a copy of your First Edition, Signed, of course!)

Best,

Scott

A "Souvenir" from the Mardi Gras of 1973. I've had this for quite awhile. Notice the wording....

And two different sets of "Plate Nunber coils."
Strip of 3.

If you notice, the top strip is "self adhesive," while the bottom 3 are of the "lick 'em" variety.
Yeah, it gets complicated sometimes, especially when you are dealing with perfs, early watermarks, etc.

They are both plate #S1111. I've had these for almost 10 years.

Also included is....

Hope all have a GREAT WEEKEND!

Yes, RC and my other Friends who follow my "Camping" thread would really like for me to finish my last adventure.

I promise that I will...Soon!

I've just been pretty busy lately.

And today, I got a letter from my Congressman, whom I have personally met with concerning Veterans issues, about a different issue that I am not not particularly interested in...



Yet,

It reminded me of one of my many thoughts shared here with my Friends about advocating a Georgia "Cold War" Vehicle license tag.....The first in the Nation, I would believe....

Funny how when your plate is full, and then you see,

JUST ONE MORE THING!

My Best,

A College email received today.....

Dear Candidate for Graduation,


At some point, you will receive from the provost’s office a memorandum that contains “graduation instructions.” One of the paragraphs in that memorandum mentions the availability of honor stoles. Some graduates may want to order honor stoles if:

n They are earning their bachelor’s degrees with “cum laude” honors (GPA of at least 3.50).

n They are earning their degrees “with distinction” (associate’s-degree recipients with a GPA of at least 3.50 or graduate students receiving such recognition from their respective graduate programs).

n They have been initiated as members of one or more of the university’s honor societies.

n They have been recognized in Who’s Who Among Students in American Colleges and Universities.

n They are graduating from the Honors Program.

An honor stole looks like this:

​

Identifications of a student’s categories of honors (“insignias”) are embroidered on the right side of the honor stole.

The UNG Circle of the Omicron Delta Kappa leadership honor society invites you to order and wear an honor stole. The price is $40, which includes two insignias. Please submit your order form and payment to Mrs. Suzanne McCarter, office manager of the Department of Criminal Justice, by Wednesday, March 30, 2016. Late orders cannot be accepted. You can download the order form, as an Adobe‑pdf document, from this URL address:

http://ung.edu/commencement/_uploads/files/ODKstoleform.pdf

Mrs. McCarter’s office is in Room 348 of Hansford Hall on the Dahlonega campus. Her telephone number is (706) 864‑1904, and her E‑mail address is [email protected] .

Congratulations on your forthcoming graduation from the University of North Georgia.

Sounds to me like advertising of some sort.
What do y'all think?

I need to see my adviser again. I've still so many questions....
Monday. After class. I hope....

Too late to email tonight. Maybe in a few hours....
I'll email and request a meeting time.....

"I am inconvenienced by a clock and horology in general."

Best,

Scott

Sheesh! I'm such a hick!

AND PROUD OF IT!

There is a saying.."If you want something done ;give it to a busy person to do."

Don't reply thusly.

Dearest UNG Circle of the Omicron Delta Kappa leadership honor society .
Thank you for your kindness in extending the opportunity to send you funds in exchange for a stole rental.
How ever my family has a time honored tradition of each graduate wearing "the family fur stole" that great ,great ,great ,grandaddy made from possums when his first son Zeke gradiated sixth grade.

I could schedule time to swing by for a drink before the walk though but be sure to let me know soon as there are several sororities vying for my time that day.
(Grandaddy made other things too ,some are downright libatious in nature and were quite a hit in science class before the fire.)

See you soon in my stole of honor... .
Most cordially xxxx.
