FOUR YEARS & STILL GOING STRONG...!

Today, my little blog turns 4. Four years of moaning & groaning & griping & rumors & threats (mostly aimed at me). Not exactly what I expected when I started out, but ... here's to 4 more years!

Feel free to carry pick up where you left off when I so rudely interrupted.

Just for kicks, go back & look at the archives. The more things change, the more they truly stay the same.

LOL, Rose, have you listened to the scanner today??? WHee Whee looks like the ppl over toward Widen going to get burned out from that fire cant believe the downtown FD wont put out fire on private property what the crap is all the other fires on? dont you think thats funny? seems the locals have to do it themselves pretty funny if you ask me but opinions are like a**holes and everybodys got 1

Thats why it pays not to post your property! We're not going to take it with us when we go anyway. But that is their rule, if it's posted then they can't fight fires. I guess they could, but they charge out the wazoo. It's the greed of people trying to hoard up land to do whatever with, they get it all posted so no one is allowed on it. They make it very clear that NO ONE is allowed to be on the property without permission (or hunt club membership='s $$$$) and they complain because no one will come on the property to fight a fire. Makes no sense to me.

Arlene Tucker is the lady in the Assessors office with the blonde hair and sexy as can be.

That fire burning on one of the hunt clubs is good practice. Wouldn't it be good if it all burned from Clay to Summersville. Private property does not have to be posted. By law if the boundarys are known it is legally posted already. If the land don't belong to you what business do you have on it to begin with. It don't belong to you stay off it. People have gotten just a little over bearing when it comes to what belongs to someone else. They also think it has to have a No Trespassing sign on every tree to be posted.

People continue to buy 4 wheelers and think they have a right to ride them on any property they wish and some feel they have the deed to that land when they buy the 4 wheelers.

As far as fire departments go they can refuse to come on any land they choose and there is nothing anyone can do about it. They get funds from the taxpayers but they don't have to put a fire out for anyone they choose.

ROSE said...

I hate it when I have to work & miss everything! LOL

Most of the property up this way is posted, primarily to keep those who get all likkered up & wreck their 4-wheelers or shoot themselves while they're poachng from suing the landowners.

Seems to me, though, that if there's a fire, the whole purpose of the fire department is to put it out.

Duh.

The reality of it is, it DOES NOT belong to us in the grand scheme of things. It's ALL going to burn in the end. So why bicker and fight about property lines unless someone is destroying something?

Anonymous said...

There is no bickering about it if you don't own it stay off of it unless you are invited to be there. Its all about respecting someone and what they have. But it seems this generation has forgotten to respect anything anyone has and most just want to tear it up because someone does own it.

#1 the hunting club is coal mine property owned by big coal companies they list there property under managed timberland with the assessors office and only pay 1/3 the taxes me and you do. Then they lease it to hunting clubs in this case welfare living Mitchell and Peggy Deboard Big Knob Hunt Club. The coal companies charge the hunt club what it costs them for taxes for the lease. Then they do not allow anybody to hunt, walk, hike, ride 4 wheelers on the property. But if we lease our property or an extra home we have to pay commercial taxes on it but the coal companies do not. In Clay COunty I would say hunting clubs cost the county close to 1/2 million dollars each year in taxes. Let the hunt club croanies fight their own fire why should the FD risk their lives and be over in Widen fighting this fire when a wreck or fire might happen in Clay where they could actually save someone.

Umm, I think you are missing the point. It's not really ours! I think people would be less likely to want to tear it up if EVERYONE wasn't so stinkin' greedy. If folks could pass through on a 4 wheeler or on foot without getting a gun pulled on them, they wouldn't be as prone to want to set it on fire!!!

What with deer season coming on, I dont know why anyone would want to be in the woods anyhow.

I want to comment on the last thread, about the fact the it seems the same people are on many different boards. That isn't true, there are many people who want and do care and have tried to be on these boards however if their name isn't from the right families, or that they will close their eyes to all the illegal deals, or follow what the other groups want or need then they are chased off or over looked. Good Ole Boys run this town and I have heard too many times, it's Clay and it's different here, true most of what happens is illegal and still a product of backroom dealings rather than what is right and for the good of our town. So it's not for lack of others wanting to help it's more the fact that they don't have the "right" last name.

Anonymous said...

So you have called the County Clerks office or one of our Commissioners and requested to be on a public board in this county. I believe this is easy enough to do or check and see if you have by calling any of the above mentioned individuals.

ROSE said...

My name was never on the "In List," yet I was asked to serve on a board. I did ... there's a reason I no longer do.

Anonymous said...

hahahha Rose your name is Cantrell and everyone knows they are on top of the Good Ole Boys list. As for you being on a board, well they had to have some fall guy cause everyone knows all the boards have nails in them and some are a little crooked (opps bent).

Now as for walking, riding your fourwheelers on somebodys property, Coal company or otherwise if you don't own it you are not to be there. Duke University owns all that hunt club land now and I am sure they can afford their taxes and I am also sure that the last land deal is recorded and the assessor will do her job and get what taxes necessary.

Yes Mitch and Peggy have scammed the welfare system, raised their kids built new homes and rent property to people also. They lease that land and make oodles off it also. And just like anywhere else they have the right to defend that property to death due them part given by the legislature just because people that own land can't be run over top of just because some dummy bought a 4 wheeler and had no land to ride it on.

I to own land, get ran over by 4wheeler owners, pick up trash by the sackfuls, fill in wholes, have to fence where I don't need it, put up gates, continually have to contend with smart mouthed kids who have things coming out of their mouths that I would touch with my hands, and what did I do to deserve this, I worked bought a farm, and tried to be a neighbor to all until I started having to do all the above things. Because I am a farmer, own a farm and work continously but I still have to spend my free time (sundays) picking up garbage, bags of trash, appliances, used tires and anything else people can throw out just because I allow them to walk, ride, go through, or around me. I also have to fight fires set by the same dummies who bought the 4 wheelers with a deed to all the land in Wv coming with it.

"hahahha Rose your name is Cantrell and everyone knows they are on top of the Good Ole Boys list." ... Really??? OMG, I'm so stupid! I've been a Cantrell for 23+ years & never realized! Which family member is it, exaclty, who's on The List??

Happy Birthday to your blog Ms Rose and I bet that good ole boys list the Cantrells are on is the S#i+ list like the rest in the outskirts of Clayberry...

ROSE said...

LOL I bet you're right about that!

Thanks for the birthday wishes! Where'd we all do our griping before this handy-dandy little outlet was available to us??

Mostly at the CCC meetings or any other place we could congregate but this is the best place to vent.

Now back to the Cantrells list. Is all of them braindead like Ernie, or Randy, or was they the only two the crows pooped out on a stump for the sun to hatch? It may have been a buzzard that actually done that to.

Read on AW's site where Stump Morton had filed a lawsuit in Federal court, against Deputy "thumper" Belt, Deadbeat Jeff Ryder. Poopy the Sheriff Holcomb and the Clay County Commission for the beating and the harassment Stump has endured for the past three years. Normally Stump would have left Belt in a ditch somewhere but trying to obey laws of the state has cost him thousands of dollars not to mention having his face beat off by thumper and his 5 cell flashlight. All because of Stump not wanting dirt tracked over his white carpet. As any decent person would remove their shoes entering somebodys home.

I hope that when it is over with Stump will not only get all the criminal charges removed from his record but will also have a nice chunk of change in his pocket. As we all know "COPS" have became a little to "cocky" and have gotten by with beating, intimdating people way to long just due the fact they wear a uniform. They pull guns on you, hit you with a slap jack or night stick or pistol whip you just because they do wear a uniform. Myself I have ZERO respect for them anymore just because they are PRICKS when they stop you, speeding or whatever reason they choose, and if you drive until you find a safe wide spot they really get bent out of shape and are very rude to you. As for myself stopping in a curve or where it would be dangerous for you and your family is stupid but they consider it as obstructing an officer. BS safety first and safety always is the best option. So Stump you go for the GUSTO and maybe the next person they arrest, beat, stop or try to intimidate will have a little respect and get it from them also.

Word has it, when the process server was handing out the lawsuit papers, Poopy refused it, cussed the guy out, and then tried to run him over with the cruiser.

Anonymous said...

Well thats good if he did that a good excuse for the judge to issue Contempt charges. I hope this knocks all of them off their soap box and brings them back down to a regular human beings level. Maybe with more Federal charges filed for assault with a deadly weapon lodged against Poopys office will also look when Stumps case comes about.

Did you ever notice how they walk around with their arms and chest all puffed out like they were some kind of he man.

I think that Stump Morton is nothing more then a Pill Head and he deserves to get his Ass and Head pounded. He is the one that seems to be the Cocky one and needs to be brought down a notch. The Guys in the uniform are trying to do the job they were hired to do. If he(Stump) wasn't such a ASS and got a attitude I am sure that he might not have gotten his head beat off (if it even happened) It was prolly a drug deal gone bad.

Anonymous said...

Nobody deserves to be beat in front of their kids by a freaking cop. And yes it did happen and pill head or not he is still a human being, a citizen, a taxpayer and a parent. Noone has ever charged him for selling dope as its claimed here. Although he has been known to smoke a joint now and then.

I guess it's safe to assume Stumps on PooooPys poop list?

He sure as the hell was beating on his wife in front of his kids or they wouldn't have to be there. If he would act like a human being, Father and a taxpayer then I am really sure that this wouldn't have happened! I think he is a low life peace of Shit and he deserved whatever he got....No he hasn't been charges with selling drugs that I know of along with the others in the County, But I sure wish they would start.

Anonymous said...

Poopy is nothing more than a cocky sob who thinks because he has a badge and a gun, he is superman.

He isn't crap. Seen him the other day and I was so suprised that the seams on his uniform hadn't busted yet.

Belt never did anything to me personally, other than act like his crap don't stink and he is better than everyone else.

Slack is my personal favorite but Paxton never did anything to me either. Still hope slack runs for sheriff!

Anonymous said...

Stump was not beating his wife when they went to his house as she had left him already. His son called for child abuse because Stump would not allow him to take a video game from his house. So you get the story straight before flopping your gums together and I bet Stump don't give a rats a** what you think of him.

As far as Slack or Paxton running for sherriff GOD HELP US ALL if either would get it. Both use enough hairspray and won't allow a hair out of place when they are in uniform. Either one would make a good baliff for the courtroom but other then that they are WORTHLESS.

Anonymous said...

Well you know what I don't care if Stump cares what I think of him or not! In my opinion he is and always will be a piece of shit. No I don't know exactly what was going on when he was arrested but I am really sure that it had something to do with him beating her and I am sure that the kids was in the home at the time it happened. Also the new gal that he has also is a pill head or why else would she be with him!!! They are made for each other.

Not knowing Stump Morton, tell me what does he do for his income? white carpets are a little unusal for Clay co.

Has the process server filed charges yet?
I would think it's against the law to attempt to run some ones hiney down.

LOL white carpet cost the same as any other color

they get dirty eaiser. like a lambskin when dirty they must be cleansed. heard a judge one time tell a state police he must go through the purification process again because he had gone second fiddle in a sexual encounter. seems the state police had been instructing a witness.

Anonymous said...

Stump probably free loads now to keep from paying alimony. He was in business for himself for a long time and like the other anon said he probably is a pill head also. But knowing that it don't matter as he will be rich off the county for hiring a bunch of duds as cops.

I have seen a time when some cops would be found in a ditch for what they done to Stump Morton and don't think for a minute he wouldn't do it again if it became necessary. Wouldn't be the first time and it won't be the last either. I would almost bet if they don't "fix" the trouble makers they to will be in a ditch somewhere compliments of some good ole 70's boyz. If trooper Rumball was still around here he would tell you its not fun at all being on the wrong end of the stick.
