    ^^^I'm actually about 50 miles south of Macon...out in the country and about 12 miles from the nearest convenience store/gas station.

    I didn't mean to imply you were in Atlanta.... But that was only the 2nd time I'd been to Georgia.... The 1st I was a kid & my family did some house boat thing for vacation... I remember catching anoles by the dozens & the size of the cats that swam up to the boat...

    ^^^oh, I knew what you meant, man.

    ... "anoles"?...lol, you mean those lizards, right?...if so, yeah, I wish I had a dollar for every one I caught as a kid. We're out in the country and I've grown so accustomed to the serenity out here that I don't really look forward to going into town for groceries and whatever.
    ...as far as Atlanta, that place is just insane nowadays...the traffic has become unbearable there.

    You'd be downright Shocked how many Yanx Fans live in Georgia. I'd say at least tit for tat. 1 Yanx fan for every Braves fan, easily. When I worked in Georgia in 96-97. There were at least 2-3 Yankee Fans per Braves Fans, at the Facilities.

    If one counted Yankee Hats at work
    in that Time, then I'd say perhaps 3-4 Yanx Fans per 1 Braves Fan.......(Braves Fans were a bit withdrawn when the Yanx took home the hardware, presented in Game 6).......that was more than they could bear......


    If one counted tattoos and jewelry, that would be.............LMAO.....

    That was about 15 miles (approx) north of 59.........!

    I wish our boards existed then.......!

    Yes, those lizards. they are semi-camouflage lizards... They can change from green to brown and back, but that's it...

    ...I remember trying to use the word "anole" in a scrabble game one time and my opponent "challenged" me...I laughed because I knew it was a word...but it wasn't in the dictionary we were using...so I had to take the word back off and lose my turn...I was so pissed...could not believe it was not in that dictionary.

    a bit more than double the distance I noted, further South from Perry, and those additional miles east too....~! Gorgeous Country down there, as nice, green, as any state. Those South East Beaches, (mostly Natl. Parks?), are effing incredible too.....~

    Yeah, that being said.... I just showed up for my blind date with a bic'd head, goatee, & hoop earrings holding a single yellow rose in one hand and a carrot in the other hand... Fast forward 5 years (to the day) & we're saying our vows...

    There is a mental image. Rick running around flapping his sagging red sack....I think I'm starting to see why he's a San Fran fan. That sort of behavior is well tolerated, lol!
