I am so honored to win this award. I want to thank Jesus. I also thank my Mom for bringing me into the world. I thank Walter for allowing that 2% of my blogs to be published. That is what keeps me going. And I thank Laura for putting up with Walter. And the fine ladies who support the HG with their dedication. I want to congratulate Anonymous for winning second place in this competition. I thank the chickens for giving their lives to be dipped in lemon-thyme and covered in citrus sauce to make the catered dinner complete. I thank Charlie Sheen for receiving more negative responses than me. Most of all I thank James Wilson for actually putting a name on his blogs, no matter who the name really belongs to. Have I missed anyone?
Wait..wait...who let down the curtain? Give me back my mike. I ain't through thanking all the people, places and things.
(Damn, I am glad that is over. I almost tripped over that hole in the red carpet.)
Do y'all like my dress? I have had it since tenth grade. It was called a tent dress then, now it fits so snug and sexy. I just needed to grow into it. Now I need someone, or two, to help me out of it.
EVERYONE PAYES TAXES THEN, NOT JUST THE PROPERTY OWNER......
Well. Pay that bill. If you vote no. Pay that bill... Fire and EMS Fees. School, Trash and Water bill.
I want you vote YES on SPLOST. No new Taxes. No pay!
Until they cut spending, we will all keep paying more. Look at the budget. It has almost doubled in the last 5 years!!!!
