I wonder about some of the bloggers mental capacity. How can a criminal living across the railroad tracks from Frannie be her fault. I believe the burnsides have lived there since the 70's. I guess that if you lived my Jimmy Morris or Randy Schoonover or Jim Knotts you aided them and gave them protection. Think before you Type.

The list of wonderful people living in Clay County has started to rise. You always hear about the ones who hurt you or do bad or steal. Well today has proven to me there is plenty good folks left in Clayberry. Today I walked through the town of Clay with a smile on my face with the thoughts of, this place isnt so bad after all.

Funny how everybody puts our fair county down, yet nobody ever leaves ... or if they do, they scheme & plot & scrimp & save until they can make it back (present company included).

Y'all got power in your neck of the woods? Ours went kaput around 7. It's very irritating to hold through the millions of AEP "to use our automated system, go to www ..." Not everybody's gobbled up with technology - I've got about 7 minutes' worth of battery left here before I'm dead in the water ... >;\

I just love it when 5:oo rolls around in Clay and all the working and business people go home.
That leaves the streets clear for the loonies, drunks, derelicts, and druggies to come out of the woodwork and walk the streets.

Dec 3 p Our County Commissioners will be Charleston for a photo op in the morning as they smile and press the flesh before receiving $90,000 to reroof both the old hardware and post office buildings.

NOW you know why this county is the poorest in the state. Led by three idiots who waste and waste. Tear the freaking old trash out and use the $90,000.00 and build back new. Why spend it on them old termite invested firetraps. This has got to be the dumbest IDEA the three blind mice have came up with yet. They intend to rentavate the buildings anyway and anybody that has ever built anything knows you can build it lots cheaper then you can remodel. Maybe some fruitcake can set fire to the trash and burn it down like they did the one across the street. Let WK set it up he can get er done and get by with it.

Saw where the Youngs have got court appointed lawyers now to represent them. Ole WK didn't want to go against a fed lawyer as they probably are not braindead like what he is used to bargaining with.

The first snow of the season is always so pretty! I've put in an order for a nice white Christmas & then no more snow until next season. I'm pretty sure it's not going to happen.

starting to stick to the roads now & lots of people in the ditch already.

Well Ms Rose seeing as how this is my second snow this year I am not liking it any to well. Yep its white and white means cold and also causes MUD. I had an inch or more of the stuff last week and it went off after 11 A.M. that day and I was hoping that was the end of winter since we didn't have any summer around here. I have a little over four inches on the ground now and its COLD and WET.

Nice to look at but hopefully a heat wave will follow it in here and melt it off before it gets dark today. Lots of wrecks on the roads today according to scanner traffic. It hasn't stopped in Nicholas county since it got daylight with calls coming in every few minutes. Icy bridges and ice in curves are tearing them up over around Summersville and Richwood areas. Glad I live in Florida and not around Alaska today.

What makes the difference if grant money is remodeling the buildings? It is not costing the county a dollar. They can get money to remodel but not build new. Ask before you critize?

Are you that dense? Not knowing where Grant Money comes from? Do you think they just wave the magic wand and it appears. BS, any idiot with any knowledge at all knows that the American Taxpayer Funds this crappy system and the three blind mice want you to think thats how grant money is. Wave the Wand. Tear the freaking dump out and bury it in a landfill somewhere and give the money back why waste it on the termite invested dumps as they are going to fall down anyway, HOPEFULLY before the money is wasted.

Wonder how may know of the high dollar issue of asbestos removed legally, from the building by the courthouse?

And they got inmates doing it free, and un-protected.

That job was bid on by a local co. over 2 years ago at the tune of $83.000.00 for both buildings.

Three more years, then we can get somebody who'll be even worse. Hard to believe, but it's happened before.

Of course, at the rate we're going, they'll have the lights turned off & WV shut down by then, so it won't impact us much.

Isn't it something: Nearly 500 workers getting the axe in Clay County and the top news story on WSAZ TV3 this morning is, Two dogs saved from burning home. That is amazing to me.

Its a shame to destroy the mountains here or anywhere but I don't think we have a congress, or the rest of government educated enough to know that CHANGE takes time when technology is involved. And Coal has always been the cheapest way to keep the lights burning. All we need now is a tent anyway.

We may be able to get one from the USA owners CHINA

Maybe it's time to start wondering what Duke university is going to do with their 35 mil. real estate purchase in Clay co. do we want pine trees replaciong our hardwoods, as rumored, or native chestnut trees where the mt. top removal took place there is a group in NC who will come in and help with the replacement of the chestnuts. NC, Duke university, get it. NC, native americans, also, OHIO Amish put these welfare druggies out there with a hoe and mattock and shovel. work the he** out of them, earn your bread by the sweat of your brow. gonna need food when they start cutting food stamps and welfare checks.

Go ahead Ms Rose best time in the world to get a fire started unless you are using matches. I have trees uprooted everywhere today as if I didn't have enough to do around here. Its amazing my electric is still on with the wind blowing so hard.
My next years firewood will be the trees around the house if its still standing when the wind stops blowing.
Maybe if the people from Duke comes in to plant trees the guys getting the axe from Fola Coal(CONSOL) will still have a job.

ROSE said...

It's very discouraging to look out the window & see all the lights twinkling on the next mountain over when it's still dark & cold at my house. I guess when AEP said "restoration is estimated to be midnight" they were estimating on government terms.

I hope this is not indicative of how this winter is going to be ...

Anonymous said...

Saw on the news where HE White was out of school today due to electric being off. What AEP is saying now is that it may be sunday before they get it turned back on.

I hope this is not an indication of winter time around here this year if it is I may become a gypsy before spring gets here.

ROSE said...

When I called this morning, they said the "new estimated restoration time" is 6 p.m. But the recording you get when you first call says "All customers are expected to be restored by 11:45 December 13th."

All jobs should have such flexible deadlines.

Did y'all get the automated call from Nicholas Emergency Services? 'bout scared the pee-willies out of me! My husband wasn't home, my baby wasn't home ... all I saw on the Caller ID was "Emergency" & totally panicked. LOL When I said, "Hello?" all I got was the recording. I still didn't know what was going on. My second "HELLO???" got another "This is the Nicholas Emergency Response System" (or whatever he said). I FINALLY realized it was test of some sort, but have no idea why I was a testee.

Anonymous said...

We got two of those phone calls. I wonder why they are calling Clay County homes?

Anonymous said...

Coulda been a testinical error.

ROSE said...

I'm assuming it's got a lot to do with the fact that we have a regional 911 system based in Nicholas Co., but you'd think they'd have made their test message a bit more ... user-friendly. I don't know how long the actual recording was, but it was over 1/2 over before I realized there wasn't a real emergency.

I hope, if they ever call during an actual emergency, the message is a bit more concise & to the point.

Anonymous said...

I also got two messages on the answering machine and also another call that came in last night. The last one was super long and continued the jargon of testing fire, police and ambulance and all EMS in Nicholas county.

I wonder how many ole ladies had heart attacks over that?

George Bush, Queen Elizabeth, and Vladimir Putin all die and go to hell. While there, they spy a red phone and ask what the phone is for. The devil tells them it is for calling back to Earth. Putin asks to call Russia and talks for 5 minutes. When he was finished the devil informs him that the cost is a million dollars, so Putin writes him a check.

Next Queen Elizabeth calls England and talks for 30 minutes. When she was finished the devil informs her that cost is 6 million dollars, so Queen Elizabeth writes him a check. Finally George Bush gets his turn and talks for 4 hours. When he was finished the devil informed him that there would be no charge for the call and feel free to call the USA anytime.

When Putin hears this he goes ballistic and asks the devil why Bush got to call the USA free. The devil replied, "Since Obama became president of the USA , the country has gone to hell, so it's a local call."

A teacher was teaching her second grade class about the government, so for homework that one day, she told her her students to ask their parents what the government is.
When Little Johnny got home that day, he went up to his dad and ask his what the government was.

His dad thought for a while and answered, ''Look at it this way: I'm the president, your mom is Congress, your maid is the work force, you are the people and your baby brother is the future.''

''I still don't get it'' responded the Little Johnny.

''Why don't you sleep on it then? Maybe you'll understand it better,'' said the dad.

''Okay then...good night'' said Little Jonny went off to bed. In the middle of the night, Little Johnny was awakened by his baby brother's crying. He went to his baby brother's crib and found that his baby brother had taken a crap in his diaper. So Little Johnny went to his parent's room to get help. When he got to his parent's bedroom, he looked through the keyhole to check if his parents were asleep. Through the keyhole he saw his mom loudly snoring, but his dad wasn't there. So he went to the maid's room. When he looked through the maid's room keyhole, he saw his dad having s*x with his maid. Little Johnny was surprised, but then he just realized something and thinks aloud, ''OH!! Now I understand the government! The President is screwing the work force, Congress is fast asleep, nobody cares about the people, and the future is full of sh*t!''
