So jack it up and drop it on the dead beat, Oh I forgot to mention the others from murfer mountain put them with him before the jail gets dropped!

Is there NOTHING you can't find in the internet?? Good grief!
Did y'all soak up all that glorious sunshine today? We had the windows wide open & now our house smells like Fall & pot roast ... which is way better than it usually smells. LOL
I am going on the record here. This man is someone to avoid at all cost.DHHR even knows about his problem with roaming hands. Ask Jerry Stover about how he took advantage of his kindness.
hey folks, not to worry about the fellow from Roane co. anyone with big idees like that will eventually get a bailout by and from people just likee him who are already in DC.
LOL Anon, you can't "go on the record" without a name. As long as you're anonymous, you're just another nameless, faceless opinion in a sea of nameless, faceless opinions.
You'd think the guy was trying to talk people out of their life savings in return for immortality or something.
A healthy dose of skepticism is good; assuming the guy is the antichrist is just bizarre.
One does have to wonder, though, why he didn't start up his venture in his own hometown. Surely Roane County has buildings for sale.
From Interstate 77: Take Tupper's Creek Exit (approx. 6 miles north of I-77 and I-79 interchange) to Rt. 21. Go North on Rt. 21 approximately 1 mile to Sissonville High School Turn left on Rt. 622 and go 4 miles. Turn right across bridge and go 1- 1/2 miles to Camp.

I just read that story. He sounds like a real "sweetheart". For the people of Clay County, I hope this turns into the jobs promised. However, I am with the ones who are very leery of his offerings. I have never had to pay an employer to work.
Have y'all seen this video?? EGADS! It's a PSA shown in Europe. Never America, of course, because we just don't have the cojones they do & we're oh, so sensitive. It is EXTREMELY graphic, but I think it should be incorporated into every driver's ed class in the country.
Rose have to disagree with you Glad our commishes were on top of things with this guy, We do not need a child slapper or a swindler in this county we have enough of our own. Talked to eric eyre it was a roane county resident that called him. HE tried this in Roan and Calhoun Countied also.
I think the commissioners should caugh up a few hundred thousand and give the guy for making an effort to try to swindle a bunch of people. Just think if 250 people paid him the $144.00 processing fee, now that would certainly be a nice paycheck for raising such a stink in Clayberry not to count the $750,000.00 to buy that run down dump IGA building. Should have been torn down 40 years ago for a public hazard.
Anon, I'm not sure what you're disagreeing with?? I'm sure the commissioners were on top of things, but based on what, exactly? Rumors? Innuendo? Yeah, the guy might very well turn out to be selling snake oil, but do you really believe any of our county leaders have "intincts" that're that good? Or character judgement? Honestly?
There are people who have never heard of Clay County, WV, who have searched the internet for property for sale, stumbled upon Clay County & bought a piece of land in our beautiful home town. I'd hate to think we'd treat them the same way we've historically treated "strangers."
Mr. Whitteker might very well be the antichrist. I don't know. But I'd venture to guess that if "somebody's" uncle/son/nephew/2nd cousin twice removed offered exactly the same non-business plan he offered, the reaction & response would have been much different.
Whittaker has ripped off people in Clay Before Henson and Judy legg for one. He appeared in court in front of Judge Alsop did a song and dance and then became violent and landed in the county jail. He is no stranger to the game.
As for a child slapper in Clay County, Wv or the entire nation might be a good thing. It sure didn't hurt the older ones around the country to get smacked once in awhile. You can read in the paper or see it on the news everyday what not smacking "slapping" the child has done for this country as a whole. A lot of non slapping has ended up as a waste of human air space, a permanent toll for the system whether it be on welfare, filling up the CRJ, or Mount Olive prison or even worse on the side of a mountain somewhere pushing up the grass. Yes we as no "slappers" have a lot to be proud of. And before you start yammering about how good it is and how good they have turned out, stand back and listen to them talk. Thing come out of their mouths I wouldn't hold in my hands. Yep I am so proud of them to.
Whitaker should have said his name was Peirson or King or Dawson or Sizemore. Then the commissioners would be throwing money and keys to the city at him.
LOL I sincerely hope that last post isn't going to be the new secretary.
Day One of school seems to have been a success. I have a few questions for you school employees, though.
1) Surely to goodness you gym teachers don't expect us parents - who just blew the budget on school clothes - to run out & buy gym shorts & shoes by TOMORROW, do you? It's not going to happen.
2) Who's in charge of the software in our schools?? Surely to goodness it's not necessary for me to fill out 100 differnet pieces of paper with each kid's name, address, SSN, phone number, contact person, etc etc etc. SURELY TO GOODNESS it can be entered ONCE & then dumped into every stinkin form. I know lots of software with this capable & I know how to use it all. I'd be happy to train someone to do this.
Ms Rose read down the page this morning about the happnings around Clayberry and it amazes me how fast every official jumped on the ban wagon to run the guy out of town. Not saying its not needed but I bet the CCC had a private backdoor meeting and found there was no way they could incorporate some kind of tax on the new business other then whats already on the phone companys intake. Not that they were protecting anyone who filed for a position but that they were going to be left out of the profit index if the business actually worked out.
We have become a society of "Leach" attitude in this country and have a slew of leaches standing around doing nothing but always wanting a piece of the pie and belly ache if its not given to them. What has happened to the old addage of working for what you get? Oh well guess I better get out to the post office and see if my welfare check or food stamps are in todays mail.
Anon, that's exactly what I've been saying all along. Long before anybody had any reason to be leary of this guy, they were ready to string him up. I think Wed Aug 26, 07:45:00 AM is onto something. Obviously, if you want to suceed in Clay, you have to first quietly go around making other people think your ideas were theirs first. Then you have to make a few promises & grease a few palms. Then & only then should you make your plans known to the public & step aside so somebody else can gobble up all the credit.
That's why we're forever doomed to exactly what we have & nothing more.
Just heard Jery Linkenogger and Mike Pearson applyed and got a big Stimulus grant for the school system to buy the IGA building and start a outdoor building class for the high school students. THey are going to teach students and dropouts hou to build buildings and lay the block to sit them on.
As for being the largest building in Clay County it surely isn't all that. Its a dump and everyone that has gone inside there knows its a dump.
The old Paul Murphy store building at Lizemore is much bigger, cost less and has acres of land to go with it. It is also in alot better condition . But the fact remains that if you want to start a rat race in Clayberry do it close to the courthouse. They trip over each other trying to figure out how much they stand to get for each other.
Ya know, I don't remember any of this controversy when Rite Aid built a new building right beside the courthouse. Or when Family Dollar moved in, even though we already had a Dollar General. What's the difference? Oh, yeah ... we didn't have a Mel Gibson look-alike then. Or internet.
Dumps can be cleaned up & refurbished. At least it's not going to be a grocery store with far too much taxidermy on display again.
Mel Gibson look alike??? More like the Northbound end of a Southbound horse.
When they can't get there hands on the cookie jar around Clayberry or tell the person what to do then and only then is there going to be a stink about it.
well, personally, I haven't understood exactly what it is these people are trying to do. Shaft someone, that's pretty obvious. Who? The taxpayers of course. How? Don't know as yet.
Right now, the Swiss banks are no longer cooperating with the US, IRS. Wonder, does that mean bad sales for US bonds. Better locate the closest soup line. Better yet, buy beans, rice and pasta. acorns and chestnuts for bread. Caterpillars for desert.
Now just how many people would know how to make bread from acorns or chestnuts? Very few now a day have ate that and just like the generation coming up today, heading for starvation because they do not know how to obtain food of anykind.
good morning ya'll, ye old pessimist here. rained all night, couldn't find a dry place to sleep. finally put my raincoat on and lay down under a shower curtain. reckon everyone's happy this morn, new business booming, oh thats Oct. 1st. gotta run, learned to play poker yesterday. woweeeeeeeee oh happy day.
Good morning, all you little rays of sunshine! Rain? Flooding?? Good grief - I must have slept through a monsoon!! LOL
Heard a few more rumors about our new businessman. He wants your financial information?? How much property do you own? How much money do you have in the bank??
I've heard of "employment fees" - in fact, I once applied for a job 100 years ago & when I was done, the guy asked for check for $125. If I had $125 at the time, I wouldn't have been applying for a $4/hr job.
If Mr. Whitteker is, indeed, asking for all that info from his applicants, you can rest assured they're not being called "applicants;" they're being called *investors* & when he loses his assets, so do all the "employees."
The CDC is predicting that up to 50% of Americans could be infected with the Swine Flu this winter. That's 1 out of every 2 people. That's 1/2 my household. Are y'all taking this seriously? I know people who are updating their Wills, just in case.
Old Man Whitteker came to town wavin' a dream & totin' a crown Poopy says, "Uh-uh, ain't no way! I'll have you in jail by the end of the day!"
Lil' ol' Andy, singin' his praises - "He'll feed your children! You'll all get raises!" Slinky & Shifty & even Fat Fran - "Forget it, buster, you ain't da man!"
He's buildin' a cult! it's gonna be Waco! some say "Savior!" others say "Fake-O!"
You can't have that building! we need it for school! we don't need your kind, you silly fool!
Old Man Whitteker got run out town his life in tatters, his held held down. all the townspeople cheered & crowed & off into the sunset the last hope rode ...
Travel south of Clay where the roads are all sprayed along to kill the brush and weeds growing. Cross the Hartland bridge where the roadwork ends. No weeds sprayed along Fola road, Upper Sycamore, Bob Reedy Fork, Grassy Fork, Greendale road or along Rt 16 all the way to the county line. Just a prime example of where the loyalties lay with Governmental agency in Clay County West Virginia.
The same holds true in all divisions of government as the people living there are lower then a snakes belly until they want your vote. Then and only then do you rank high enough to even be talked to face to face and not looked down on.
AW ranks right up there with the main leaches unless it is some type of gossip.
learned how to play poker. Take a 16oz pepsi bottle break it, select a large piece of the glass, look around, find a good looking woman, any woman will do, drop the pepsi shard in front of her, when she bends over to pick up the diamond, POKE HER.
If you find a GLASS Pepsi bottle, you'd be better off selling it to a collector. There's only 1 winner in poker & the way you play, it's not gonna be YOU! LOL
hot plate went on strike this morn. so am using an electric skillet with an aluminum pie plate as an insert. sausage and taters and eggs. haven't tried baking biscuits yet.
Hmmm, one track minds don't change much. I meant to bake your biscuits in the pie plate in the frying pan not to cover your ice cream bucket. Even though it probably needs one.
all in all we do acquire some worldly knowledge. found bonjour in the services section of my computer. learned what a smart card is, too. sorry I misunderstood.
Good morning all you chilly little rays of Sunshine!
I just came from AWs site. If it's still infected, I've got some really good virus protection. At least it seems that way & I sincerely hope so! It seems OK.
September. Already. A hot cup of coffee, a clear, cool Fall-feeling morning, a sky full of twinkling stars ... ain't life grand?!
Unless you have some really good antivirus going you have an infected computer. There was a virus on this site and AW's page also but haven't showed up in a few days now. It is a chilly day going on out there but no rain so far. Ain't life grand!!!!
Try CNet.com. They have a blue million free anti-virus/spyware/malware/adware software options.
Please take this moment with me to heave a heavy sigh & hum a few Conway Twitty tunes. OK, so if you're *really* gonna have your own little tribule a'la Rose, you're gonna have to sing at the top of your ever-lovin' lungs!
found AVG anti virus program. got temporary 30 day free trial program that appears to have cleaned up my virus problem. don't know much about viruses. this one seems to be a desktop virus. got some names and nos identifying the files but don't know if they are contagious or not if the full line of characters are used. am fishing for info if anyone wants to compare notes.
I remember where I was (& what I was doing) the day Conway died the way some people remember where they were the day Kennedy was shot. It was a sad, sad day for me (remember, I'd just lost Elvis 17 years earlier). Fortunately, the announcement was made on a Saturday & I was home alone ...
LS, the version of AVG I have is completely free - there's no "trial" to it.
I used AVG for years and it let a virus in that ate the harddrive by one half. That is when I bought the program StopSign which has turned out ot outdo AVG, Nortons,Macaffe PCcilan and Guarddog that I had purchased prior.
LS if you go back on the AVG site, there is a free version you can use. You may have to check out a lot of the site to find it but its there. Most of the free scan you find online will find numerous viruses and you have to purchase it to clean the virus up.
As for the weed monkey, would that have been Charley Pride?
Killed a big yellow rattlesnake yesterday. That made the 2nd one in the past week. Must be this hay day weather bringing them out. Sooooo everyone have a hayday as it is nice finally to go without rain for a day.
the version of AVG that must be bought has several features the free version doesn't have. had to get technical help this morn. between that and the virus program all seems normal again in the computer world. the poker game also went back to working. games to fast for me. maybe 7 card stud will do.
Got to bale hay for the weekend Ms Rose and then on sunday it will be off to Gap Mills to the WVMRA points race at the Gator Hole. Hopefully on Monday may just have a cookout. Since the rattlesnakes are crawling around come on over we well just grill one.
Next week the Kanawha county fair happens and the fastest mud trucks east of the Mississippi River are scheduled to run there on Saturday. A lot of Pro racers from other states are scheduled so it should be the best race this. Well worth the cost for the family so bring your camera and take lots of pictures. If you have the video cams record it, you won't regret it. Definite fall chill in the air today and even has that crisp fall smell about it.
Has anybody ever been to Alaska? I'm wondering if last night's full moon - & subsequent all-night daylight - was comparable to Alaska's nighttime during the 6 months it doesn't really get dark. Fortunately, I don't have a problem sleeping in the middle of the day! LOL
Never been there Ms Rose but it would be good if it did not rain like here most the summer. As you can tell I hate rain. I wqould like to go to the land of the midnight sun though.
I did watch the sun go down and come back up in less then twenty minutes time once while flying.
i'm also gettinga slow response to AWs web page but it does come through. got a message from technical that i'd had a serious error but luckily I have a self repair program on my computer so with some fussing from me and self diagnostic from the computer i'm close to normal again but internet explorer 8 was inserted on my computer. somehow got a whole new ballgame. I'm confused as usual. situation SNAFU.
LS, I'm feelin' your pain. I had that same problem several months ago - no amount of restoration would help. I finally restored to original factory settings & started from scratch. Major PITA, but it it worked!
Anybody know anything about the FAR! FAR! in Clendenin yesterday??
I think, have traced my problems to installed PC Spyware program. tried to uninstall. can't. computer says file missing. must restore file. I think, PC spyware interfering with recently installed AVG virus program. Oh BOY here we go again.
Ms Rose, when you rebooted was it necessary to reinstall all your software programs? Seems to me, if you/anyone had a 2nd/3rd hand computer with no reboot disc things would be getting complicated. correct me if i'm wrong I don't always know what i'm talking about. Been that way since birth. was always told to be still when young. I learned too keep my mouth shut. then they couldn't get me started talking till the 8th grade. because I did what I was told it exasperated my parents and, of course it was all my fault. All my fault, if I wasn't a bastard when I was born I've learned how to be since then. Can't help running on now and then.
I dialed '0', to check this out, asked the operator, who confirmed that this was correct so please pass it on . .. . (l also checked out Snopes.com. This is true, and also applies to cell phones!)
PASS ON TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW
I received a telephone call last evening from an individual identifying himself as an AT&T Service Technician (could also be Telus) who was conducting a test on the telephone lines. He stated that to complete the test I should touch nine(9), zero(0), the pound sign (#), and then hang up. Luckily, I was suspicious and refused.
Upon contacting the telephone company, I was informed that by pushing 90#, you give the requesting individual full access to your telephone line, which enables them to place long distance calls billed to your home phone number.
I was further informed that this scam has been originating from many local jails/prisons DO NOT press 90# for ANYONE.
The GTE Security Department requested that I share this information with EVERYONE I KNOW.
After checking with Verizon they also said it was true, so do not dial 90# for anyone !!!!!
Are y'all listening to all the controversy about Obama's "school speech" tomorrow?? Whaddaya think? Do you think the kids should be required to listen to it?
LOL Isn't spanking grounds for jail time these days? Is it any wonder our jails are over-crowded?
Speaking of over-crowded jails, did y'all see the article on former Senator, Randy Schoonover, in the Gazette yesterday?
Both of my children are pretty certain where they stand politically, at the ripe old ages of 13 & 15. They're as opposite as night & day. It should be interesting to see what their takes are on Obama's speech.
Personally, I think Obama's speech is a good waste of classroom time. Our school kids aren't old enough to vote, they don't pay the taxes that fund their educations & there are a million higher priorities for their class time. No wonder our kids aren't winning the education race.
I like this part - "I hope you’ll all wash your hands a lot, and stay home from school when you don’t feel well, so we can keep people from getting the flu this fall and winter."
Since its supposed to help I think our BOE should buy Hand Sanitizer to place in the classrooms. Those entering the room would be required to use it before and after class. Anyone sneezing would also be required to use it during class. Might even require it on buses and bathrooms also.
Like everything else though that would cost money and may keep the kids a little safer while in school care. In the meantime buy some for your own kids to carry with them and learn them when and how to use it may be the trick to staying healthy this year. Over two thousand dead from the swine flu already.
If the schools would stop wasting so much stinkin $$ on paper to send worthless forms home, they'd have plenty of fundage for hand sanitizer & maybe even some bleach to clean those classrooms with. & maybe even some Lysol!!

Just in case you want to bring the family down there Ms Rose or anyone else also. WVMRA points race will be on September 12th.
From Interstate 77:
Take Tupper's Creek Exit (approx. 6 miles north of I-77 and I-79 interchange) to Rt. 21.
Go North on Rt. 21 approximately 1 mile to Sissonville High School
Turn left on Rt. 622 and go 4 miles.
Turn right across bridge and go 1- 1/2 miles to Camp.
Here are the directions to Kanawha county fair if the link won't work. WVMRA mud race Sept.12th.

I just read that story. He sounds like a real "sweetheart". For the people of Clay County, I hope this turns into the jobs promised. However, I am with the ones who are very leery of his offerings. I have never had to pay an employer to work.
So ... who d'ya suppose tipped the Gazette about our Mr. Whitteker?
Probably the new commish
So it will make it look like he is doing something!
He'll have to try harder than that.

Rose have to disagree with you
Glad our commishes were on top of things with this guy, We do not need a child slapper or a swindler in this county we have enough of our own. Talked to eric eyre it was a roane county resident that called him. HE tried this in Roan and Calhoun Countied also.

Happy First Day of School!! I can't believe my babies are in 8th & 10th grades already. I musta blinked ...
As for a child slapper in Clay County, Wv or the entire nation might be a good thing. It sure didn't hurt the older ones around the country to get smacked once in awhile. You can read in the paper or see it on the news everyday what not smacking "slapping" the child has done for this country as a whole. A lot of non slapping has ended up as a waste of human air space, a permanent toll for the system whether it be on welfare, filling up the CRJ, or Mount Olive prison or even worse on the side of a mountain somewhere pushing up the grass. Yes we as no "slappers" have a lot to be proud of. And before you start yammering about how good it is and how good they have turned out, stand back and listen to them talk. Thing come out of their mouths I wouldn't hold in my hands. Yep I am so proud of them to.
Whitaker should have said his name was Peirson or King or Dawson or Sizemore. Then the commissioners would be throwing money and keys to the city at him.
Shoulda said his first name was Jack.
you all gone be talkin out teh othr side your butt when we making 13 dollers hour an you broke.
LOL I sincerely hope that last post isn't going to be the new secretary.
Day One of school seems to have been a success. I have a few questions for you school employees, though.
1) Surely to goodness you gym teachers don't expect us parents - who just blew the budget on school clothes - to run out & buy gym shorts & shoes by TOMORROW, do you? It's not going to happen.
2) Who's in charge of the software in our schools?? Surely to goodness it's not necessary for me to fill out 100 differnet pieces of paper with each kid's name, address, SSN, phone number, contact person, etc etc etc. SURELY TO GOODNESS it can be entered ONCE & then dumped into every stinkin form. I know lots of software with this capable & I know how to use it all. I'd be happy to train someone to do this.
New Communicator has the scoop on 34 days in the can
Wed Aug 26, 03:40:00 PM - If this person is going to help solve world problems, we are in definite trouble.
What happened to the communicator site(reported attack site)?
Ms Rose read down the page this morning about the happnings around Clayberry and it amazes me how fast every official jumped on the ban wagon to run the guy out of town. Not saying its not needed but I bet the CCC had a private backdoor meeting and found there was no way they could incorporate some kind of tax on the new business other then whats already on the phone companys intake. Not that they were protecting anyone who filed for a position but that they were going to be left out of the profit index if the business actually worked out.
We have become a society of "Leach" attitude in this country and have a slew of leaches standing around doing nothing but always wanting a piece of the pie and belly ache if its not given to them. What has happened to the old addage of working for what you get? Oh well guess I better get out to the post office and see if my welfare check or food stamps are in todays mail.
Anon, that's exactly what I've been saying all along. Long before anybody had any reason to be leary of this guy, they were ready to string him up. I think Wed Aug 26, 07:45:00 AM is onto something. Obviously, if you want to suceed in Clay, you have to first quietly go around making other people think your ideas were theirs first. Then you have to make a few promises & grease a few palms. Then & only then should you make your plans known to the public & step aside so somebody else can gobble up all the credit.
That's why we're forever doomed to exactly what we have & nothing more.
THey could take your last two words and make it the slogan for Clay County Progress.
Or leave off your first two.
That might be even better.
why do we need 4000 apartments for 250 workers?
remember the Ivydale school deal where 50,000 simoleons disappeared. why give 750,000 for property when the asking price is only 600,000?
Just heard Jery Linkenogger and Mike Pearson applyed and got a big Stimulus grant for the school system to buy the IGA building and start a outdoor building class for the high school students. THey are going to teach students and dropouts hou to build buildings and lay the block to sit them on.
As for being the largest building in Clay County it surely isn't all that. Its a dump and everyone that has gone inside there knows its a dump.
The old Paul Murphy store building at Lizemore is much bigger, cost less and has acres of land to go with it. It is also in alot better condition . But the fact remains that if you want to start a rat race in Clayberry do it close to the courthouse. They trip over each other trying to figure out how much they stand to get for each other.
watch it burn
Hmm. Interesting.
Ya know, I don't remember any of this controversy when Rite Aid built a new building right beside the courthouse. Or when Family Dollar moved in, even though we already had a Dollar General. What's the difference? Oh, yeah ... we didn't have a Mel Gibson look-alike then. Or internet.
Dumps can be cleaned up & refurbished. At least it's not going to be a grocery store with far too much taxidermy on display again.
Willie Nelson for President!
Mel Gibson look alike??? More like the Northbound end of a Southbound horse.
When they can't get there hands on the cookie jar around Clayberry or tell the person what to do then and only then is there going to be a stink about it.

well, personally, I haven't understood exactly what it is these people are trying to do. Shaft someone, that's pretty obvious. Who? The taxpayers of course. How? Don't know as yet.
Right now, the Swiss banks are no longer cooperating with the US, IRS. Wonder, does that mean bad sales for US bonds. Better locate the closest soup line. Better yet, buy beans, rice and pasta. acorns and chestnuts for bread. Caterpillars for desert.
Fri Aug 28, 09:18:00 AM
Now just how many people would know how to make bread from acorns or chestnuts? Very few now a day have ate that and just like the generation coming up today, heading for starvation because they do not know how to obtain food of anykind.
better learn.
good morning ya'll, ye old pessimist here. rained all night, couldn't find a dry place to sleep. finally put my raincoat on and lay down under a shower curtain. reckon everyone's happy this morn, new business booming, oh thats Oct. 1st. gotta run, learned to play poker yesterday. woweeeeeeeee oh happy day.
Good morning, all you little rays of sunshine! Rain? Flooding?? Good grief - I must have slept through a monsoon!! LOL
Heard a few more rumors about our new businessman. He wants your financial information?? How much property do you own? How much money do you have in the bank??
I've heard of "employment fees" - in fact, I once applied for a job 100 years ago & when I was done, the guy asked for check for $125. If I had $125 at the time, I wouldn't have been applying for a $4/hr job.
If Mr. Whitteker is, indeed, asking for all that info from his applicants, you can rest assured they're not being called "applicants;" they're being called *investors* & when he loses his assets, so do all the "employees."
The CDC is predicting that up to 50% of Americans could be infected with the Swine Flu this winter. That's 1 out of every 2 people. That's 1/2 my household. Are y'all taking this seriously? I know people who are updating their Wills, just in case.
Old Man Whitteker came to town
wavin' a dream & totin' a crown
Poopy says, "Uh-uh, ain't no way!
I'll have you in jail by the end of the day!"
Lil' ol' Andy, singin' his praises -
"He'll feed your children! You'll all get raises!"
Slinky & Shifty & even Fat Fran -
"Forget it, buster, you ain't da man!"
He's buildin' a cult!
it's gonna be Waco!
some say "Savior!"
others say "Fake-O!"
You can't have that building!
we need it for school!
we don't need your kind,
you silly fool!
Old Man Whitteker got run out town
his life in tatters, his held held down.
all the townspeople cheered & crowed
& off into the sunset the last hope rode ...
Buy a tarp!
Does anyone know who it was they found dead over Lizemores?
Sat Aug 29, 02:26:00 AM
I learned that when I was six or seven years old along with a lot of other things that still nestle in my feeble mind.
All the cops and EMS workers were at Vance residence this morning so who was found dead may just be that name.
AW is slipping on keeping up with the news. Or is it that because most of the damage was in "no man's land" that he really could care less?
Travel south of Clay where the roads are all sprayed along to kill the brush and weeds growing. Cross the Hartland bridge where the roadwork ends. No weeds sprayed along Fola road, Upper Sycamore, Bob Reedy Fork, Grassy Fork, Greendale road or along Rt 16 all the way to the county line. Just a prime example of where the loyalties lay with Governmental agency in Clay County West Virginia.
The same holds true in all divisions of government as the people living there are lower then a snakes belly until they want your vote. Then and only then do you rank high enough to even be talked to face to face and not looked down on.
AW ranks right up there with the main leaches unless it is some type of gossip.
I reckon I just live too far back in the redheaded step-child hills for even the crookedest of them to come looking for my vote .... Pfffft.
Did y'all get out & enjoy this GORGEOUS day?!
learned how to play poker.
Take a 16oz pepsi bottle break it, select a large piece of the glass, look around, find a good looking woman, any woman will do, drop the pepsi shard in front of her, when she bends over to pick up the diamond, POKE HER.
If you find a GLASS Pepsi bottle, you'd be better off selling it to a collector. There's only 1 winner in poker & the way you play, it's not gonna be YOU! LOL
I play slow but always I've been there at the end. well sometimes maybe it was the wrong end.
hot plate went on strike this morn. so am using an electric skillet with an aluminum pie plate as an insert. sausage and taters and eggs. haven't tried baking biscuits yet.
Use two pie plates. One for a cover.
didn't plan on defecating in one. planned on eating what was in the plate.
That's lovely.
The bread's rising, the ham's in the oven, the eggs are deviled ... it's Christmas in August for dinner!
WOOOOO HOOOOOOOO!!
Hmmm, one track minds don't change much.
I meant to bake your biscuits in the pie plate in the frying pan not to cover your ice cream bucket. Even though it probably needs one.
all in all we do acquire some worldly knowledge. found bonjour in the services section of my computer. learned what a smart card is, too.
sorry I misunderstood.
Has AW gotten his site cleaned up from that virus?
Ive been afraid to look at it since he announced it.
Good morning all you chilly little rays of Sunshine!
I just came from AWs site. If it's still infected, I've got some really good virus protection. At least it seems that way & I sincerely hope so! It seems OK.
September. Already. A hot cup of coffee, a clear, cool Fall-feeling morning, a sky full of twinkling stars ... ain't life grand?!
Unless you have some really good antivirus going you have an infected computer. There was a virus on this site and AW's page also but haven't showed up in a few days now.
It is a chilly day going on out there but no rain so far. Ain't life grand!!!!
how do you know if you have a virus? I been buzzin' AW RIGHT ALONG. NO TROUBLE.
Any idea what the virus is? Or what file to look for?
reckon that virus must have caught up to me. having problems. GOAT VIRUS i think. something akin to the swine flu.
Try CNet.com. They have a blue million free anti-virus/spyware/malware/adware software options.
Please take this moment with me to heave a heavy sigh & hum a few Conway Twitty tunes. OK, so if you're *really* gonna have your own little tribule a'la Rose, you're gonna have to sing at the top of your ever-lovin' lungs!
I love Conway!
Who's that Weed Monkey, Conway used to sing with?
Loretta Lynn
found AVG anti virus program. got temporary 30 day free trial program that appears to have cleaned up my virus problem. don't know much about viruses. this one seems to be a desktop virus. got some names and nos identifying the files but don't know if they are contagious or not if the full line of characters are used. am fishing for info if anyone wants to compare notes.
Weed Monkey?? LOL
I remember where I was (& what I was doing) the day Conway died the way some people remember where they were the day Kennedy was shot. It was a sad, sad day for me (remember, I'd just lost Elvis 17 years earlier). Fortunately, the announcement was made on a Saturday & I was home alone ...
LS, the version of AVG I have is completely free - there's no "trial" to it.
Corecto
Right
No denaro's involved
Not one measly cent!
I used AVG for years and it let a virus in that ate the harddrive by one half. That is when I bought the program StopSign which has turned out ot outdo AVG, Nortons,Macaffe PCcilan and Guarddog that I had purchased prior.
LS if you go back on the AVG site, there is a free version you can use. You may have to check out a lot of the site to find it but its there. Most of the free scan you find online will find numerous viruses and you have to purchase it to clean the virus up.
As for the weed monkey, would that have been Charley Pride?
Killed a big yellow rattlesnake yesterday. That made the 2nd one in the past week. Must be this hay day weather bringing them out. Sooooo everyone have a hayday as it is nice finally to go without rain for a day.
Most men could use a weed Monkey for a pet, if only the wifey's would permit!
the version of AVG that must be bought has several features the free version doesn't have. had to get technical help this morn. between that and the virus program all seems normal again in the computer world. the poker game also went back to working. games to fast for me. maybe 7 card stud will do.

Good morning, all you little rays of sunshine! Have you been outside yet? It's a beautiful morning!! Cold, but beautiful!
Anybody got big plans for the weekend? The unofficial end of summer. Good grief.
Nah going to wait till next week when the gas prices come back down.
I heard about Valley Health in Cedar Grove sliding fee for dental work 304-595-3282
Got to bale hay for the weekend Ms Rose and then on sunday it will be off to Gap Mills to the WVMRA points race at the Gator Hole. Hopefully on Monday may just have a cookout. Since the rattlesnakes are crawling around come on over we well just grill one.
Next week the Kanawha county fair happens and the fastest mud trucks east of the Mississippi River are scheduled to run there on Saturday. A lot of Pro racers from other states are scheduled so it should be the best race this. Well worth the cost for the family so bring your camera and take lots of pictures. If you have the video cams record it, you won't regret it. Definite fall chill in the air today and even has that crisp fall smell about it.
Good morning, all you little rays of sunshine!
Has anybody ever been to Alaska? I'm wondering if last night's full moon - & subsequent all-night daylight - was comparable to Alaska's nighttime during the 6 months it doesn't really get dark. Fortunately, I don't have a problem sleeping in the middle of the day! LOL
Never been there Ms Rose but it would be good if it did not rain like here most the summer. As you can tell I hate rain. I wqould like to go to the land of the midnight sun though.
I did watch the sun go down and come back up in less then twenty minutes time once while flying.
sounds as if we got aholt of CHUCK YEAGER.
LS, sounds like you need a dutch oven for those times the utilities don't cooperate with you.
My anti-virus software is denying me access to AW's site again. Good grief!!
Anything going on in town that I'm missing out on??
Sounds like last night's football game had some excitement - anybody left standing??
i'm also gettinga slow response to AWs web page but it does come through. got a message from technical that i'd had a serious error but luckily I have a self repair program on my computer so with some fussing from me and self diagnostic from the computer i'm close to normal again but internet explorer 8 was inserted on my computer. somehow got a whole new ballgame. I'm confused as usual. situation SNAFU.
got shut down again. had to restore computer to 1st Sept. still got a file problem.
LS, I'm feelin' your pain. I had that same problem several months ago - no amount of restoration would help. I finally restored to original factory settings & started from scratch. Major PITA, but it it worked!
Anybody know anything about the FAR! FAR! in Clendenin yesterday??
I think, have traced my problems to installed PC Spyware program. tried to uninstall. can't. computer says file missing. must restore file. I think, PC spyware interfering with recently installed AVG virus program. Oh BOY here we go again.
Ms Rose, when you rebooted was it necessary to reinstall all your software programs? Seems to me, if you/anyone had a 2nd/3rd hand computer with no reboot disc things would be getting complicated. correct me if i'm wrong I don't always know what i'm talking about. Been that way since birth. was always told to be still when young. I learned too keep my mouth shut. then they couldn't get me started talking till the 8th grade. because I did what I was told it exasperated my parents and, of course it was all my fault. All my fault, if I wasn't a bastard when I was born I've learned how to be since then. Can't help running on now and then.
Oh, and computer has been stabilized since yesterday afternoon.
90# on your telephone
I dialed '0', to check this out, asked the operator, who confirmed that this was correct
so please pass it on . .. . (l also checked out Snopes.com. This is true, and also applies to cell phones!)
PASS ON TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW
I received a telephone call last evening from an individual identifying himself as an AT&T Service Technician (could also be Telus) who was conducting a test on the telephone lines. He stated that to complete the test I should touch nine(9), zero(0), the pound sign (#), and then hang up. Luckily, I was suspicious and refused.
Upon contacting the telephone company, I was informed that by pushing 90#, you give the requesting individual full access to your telephone line, which enables them to place long distance calls billed to your home phone number.
I was further informed that this scam has been originating from many local jails/prisons DO NOT press 90# for ANYONE.
The GTE Security Department requested that I share this information with EVERYONE I KNOW.
After checking with Verizon they also said it was true, so do not dial 90# for anyone !!!!!
Ms Rose post your site addy
Huh??
Are y'all listening to all the controversy about Obama's "school speech" tomorrow?? Whaddaya think? Do you think the kids should be required to listen to it?
NO!
Every president gives a speech to school kids. What's the big deal?
I'd rather hear Rose give a speech
then spank us for being bad on here!
LOL Isn't spanking grounds for jail time these days? Is it any wonder our jails are over-crowded?
Speaking of over-crowded jails, did y'all see the article on former Senator, Randy Schoonover, in the Gazette yesterday?
Both of my children are pretty certain where they stand politically, at the ripe old ages of 13 & 15. They're as opposite as night & day. It should be interesting to see what their takes are on Obama's speech.
Personally, I think Obama's speech is a good waste of classroom time. Our school kids aren't old enough to vote, they don't pay the taxes that fund their educations & there are a million higher priorities for their class time. No wonder our kids aren't winning the education race.
Oh come on Rose he's speeching during lunch. Force feed em pole-tics while feeding em slop.
obama's speech to our kids,
http://www.whitehouse.gov/MediaResources/PreparedSchoolRemarks/
I like this part - "I hope you’ll all wash your hands a lot, and stay home from school when you don’t feel well, so we can keep people from getting the flu this fall and winter."
LOL
Since its supposed to help I think our BOE should buy Hand Sanitizer to place in the classrooms. Those entering the room would be required to use it before and after class. Anyone sneezing would also be required to use it during class. Might even require it on buses and bathrooms also.
Like everything else though that would cost money and may keep the kids a little safer while in school care. In the meantime buy some for your own kids to carry with them and learn them when and how to use it may be the trick to staying healthy this year. Over two thousand dead from the swine flu already.
If the schools would stop wasting so much stinkin $$ on paper to send worthless forms home, they'd have plenty of fundage for hand sanitizer & maybe even some bleach to clean those classrooms with. & maybe even some Lysol!!
