Ranting — it is what us Gen X’er are around for — to keep the boomers in line. Besides the Y Generation are already saying that we screwed up their lives — it seems that shit travels backwards.

It that a referenda or referenDUMB? Some folks just don’t get it. Could the Oak Ridgers be holding out for a Walmart..or do you have one already? They tend to be a bit cheaper than Target. The “historical preservers” in our town…Dahlonega, GA, are always concern with how high the signs are in front of any new business. Seems like they would be more concerned about the trash that line both sides of the highways coming in and out of our fair little town. Where are our “inmates” when we need them? But, with that said, we do have a Walmart!! and Home Depot, too!! AT..some of you folks need to get into city/county politics!!Jake hope your little guys enjoy their spring break. We love you..Love Your Auntie BECK

“Boomers, dadgum boomers’

Maybe a parent near you. Us boomers are the best educated, most open minded folks in the Common Era. Well except for the few that don’t want to do this deal.

Wetland? Seriously? How does that work since Pine Ridge is a uh Ridge? Tis unfortunate indeed.

I thought a wetlands implied something that collects water and has green stuff like trees and lily pads. The only thing I see in the pictures are bald hills. Turkey creek was a wet lands area and look what a fine place it is turning out to be — oh, little know fact, some of the buildings in TC are sinking because, well it was on a wetlands and they are wet and they are land that is wet.

Yeah, those boomers — lost their virginity at woodstock and sold their souls for a 401K. It was good being an X’er for a while until that other newer generation started calling us closed minded and said we were hindering their success and spiritual growth. Dang kids think they know everything. I can’t wait till they have kids.

Regarding your addendum on Jim O’Connor’s claim that Bob Monday’s property cannot be developed due to problems with wetlands and access:
* When I first received Bob Monday’s map, I ran it past a friend who had mapped the wetlands in that area. My friend didn’t think there were wetlands in the particular area where Monday proposes to develop big box stores.
* As for access, Monday told me that when he discussed the site with the city about a year ago, there were questions about access, but he has come up with a new access plan (which he has circulated around town) that resolves those issues.
