MLK Weekend

[John R]

wow, the first post really set the tone for this thread, trainwreck from the start. it's a bummer that MLK day has devolved into a non holiday. the banks and post office(not sure about schools or business, i'm no longer a suit) take the day off, but the rest of the nation gets to work. unless, you're near the ATL and get to go skiing or to the beach.

on a typical holiday weekend, construction stops at 1-2pm on friday and will resume on tuesday after the observed holiday. i had scheduled as much and asked the contractor when the job would be open on tuesday. he indicated that on monday the job would be open. no plastering of the jobsites by st. joe code enforcement regarding hammers down, interesting. i seem to work one of my jobs every holiday, so it barely matters to me.

what does matter to me is someone would use the term 'white folks' in a thread labled with MLK. how in this day and age can people think that is ok? the county as a whole has yet to move past segregation, and it is quite sad.
this thread shows that there are still faces of the dirty south that are still pretty dirty. you'd think we'd want to move past the stereotypical image the rest of the nation has of us, not fuel it.

organicmama, i see mr. organic every week but you guys are noticeably absent. come on in and say hello at 'stop one' on saturdays, if everyone is healthy enough to come out and play.

As documented in the global warming thread, they have aligned themselves with the Wiccans and are concurrently trying to save both pagans and planet

Uh-oh, 2 out of 3--I've been sterotyp'd! Not saying which 2 of the 3, though... ;-)

:funn:Isn't NPR talk radio? I never hear music on there. Let's see, I own more than one gun, drink beer, listen to talk radio, thought about buying a Volvo once, I will pass the ganja, but I don't take it, and I liseten to NPR. However, I can relate more to the Libertarian Party.

Speaking of which, I was going to ask you, is it legal to shoot guns in the bayside 'hood? Just curious...where do you go shooting?
