for a news story. usually it rains before the paper comes out when we do this so this research has a twofold purpose.
i would love to hear how drought has impacted you. are you watering your lawn? how far down is the water level in your pond or favorite fishing hole. is your garden drying up? lawn dead?
try to indicate the region of the county in which you live. north lamar got a great rain last weekend but how widespread was it?
if you want to be quoted in the story you must e-mail me your info with your real name (imagine that) to news@barnesville.com
thanks,
walter geiger

I love drought. I don't have to mow my lawn and all those obssessive/compulsives who worship theirs are sucking dust.
Those are good ones.
real thigh slappers there.
junior and grandpa from hee haw would just love you guys.
It's so hot and dry down my way that my catfish have got ticks.
no drought here....
THIS IS WHATS NEEDED, as freedoms don't protect themselves and the powers lined up against them are formidable. The commercial giants are outspending public interest advocates 500 to 1, but concerned citizens fought back flooding the 109th Congress with over one million letters (and did it again to the 110th with over 1.6 million) and took to the streets in 25 cities delivering "Save the Internet" petitions to their senators last summer demanding they oppose the corporate attempt to gut the internet and instead enact a free and open internet information commons. This issue can be won, but only by lots more letters, emails, phone calls and innovative action from an energetic and mobilized public unwilling to let business or government take away what already belongs to us and that we can't afford to lose.
WHAT?

i cant beleive some of the religious wacos havent jumped on this page and started complaining because a joke was posted
I blam this drought on George Bush. He need's to cut the water on.
does the watering ban apply to people who talk with a serious lisp?
maybe men with lisps can talk on even days and women on odd days thus saving precious water.
POWP <:)
George bush started the fire's in south Georgia. He's trying to take our mind's off the war.
now, all BS aside about the fires. just think, this is a great way for the state to improve timber prices for the next 20 years or so. this is gonna be a Katrina effect watch and see.

Why does the blog get shut down for new comments whenever it gets fun?
Any who, since this drought is obviously hurting us all, I will kick a Muslim in the nuts three times on the second Sabbath of the seventh month as a plea for mercy.
I'm not sure if that will work, but I'll sure as hell enjoy myself- Does that make me selfish?
It's so dry- whores quit sweatin' in church!

Rev.MJB

this just in from The Right Reverend, Brother in Arms Jesse Jackson:
"Huricane Katrina was engineered by by the US Government as an attack on our peoples. We demand reparations for this unsolicited attack on people of color. I know that yall did this to our little bald headed brother mayor of N.O. in efforts to make him look bad. We demand that you send checks to ALL people of color or we will plan a million man , oh wait, a 100,000 man, oh crap hang on, a 100 man march on the capital.
Also we demand that all elephants in this county from our homelands be called African-American elephants rather than just African elephants. you have held them down for too long! Give peace a chance.
can I get an AMEN?"
in honor of THE REVEREND MJB

To answer DWM from the last blog about the contest, yes some were "pole people" or "nude models in movement", but not all. Some were local or from around the area, but all were grown women that had to sign a waiver saying that would NOT undress in any manner not to do with the contest.
Whether they were dancers, mothers, college students- which some were, they were all adults age 18 and older. I have also seen the law against this type of thing and it only outlaws nudity and maybe thongs- which would not have been allowed in the contest anyway.
Rev.MJB
So how did it go down as far as the contest being shut down? I heard he had advertised it -- who answered the ad and told him to pull the plug (and if it was legal in his (contest owner) mind, why did he cave?)
Due to the drought and the water restrictions, there wasn't enough water to wet the girls down. So they had to cancel.
dane bishop's yard is nice and green. go dane
dane has special seeds
WDM, this is what I heard this weekend, the city received a call from a lawyer and in return the Lie-brary will be having a contest in about 3 weeks, with no objections from law enforcement. Like it was said before, this is not adult entertainment, therefore no law is being broken.
Leave it up to the consumers to decide the fate of this not the Gov.
Something I would like to see is a pool table in this place so you could have a beer and shoot pool, just my opinion, but if enough people share this opinion we can get a vote on it from the city council. We would need a big push for something like that. Don't know- just an idea.
Rev.
So who told him to pull the plug?
The city police dept.- from what I hear.
