Yes, and no... it's not even noticeable that it's there. We're only talking about 1/4 inch of material, if that.

Rutherford County has extension officers that work in schools when they are technically off-duty from their day jobs, I believe.

Strel, that's enough of the personal attacks. Besides which, you should maybe go back and try to comprehend what the OP was saying before you jump to conclusions.

All of this being proof that debt collections people are scum of the earth.

I really see no point in this thread going much further. Facts: 1. Jack's ban was temporary and has been lifted by me several days ago. Whether he chooses to come back or not is up to him. He's welcome to do so. 2. My door is always open to anyone who has a concern about the way things are done. Neither I or any of the moderators are perfect so I'm open to constructive criticisms as long as they are constructive.

Hmmm. I like this.

Ok, send me a PM and tell me who you think is out of line and give me some instances to back it up. My door is and always has been open for this sort of thing.

No, it's not uncommon anywhere, anytime, when someone pushes the limit of what is acceptable and is removed from the ice and thrown into the penalty box for a period of time. No one likes getting their hand slapped. Fortunately most folks are mature enough to learn from their mistakes, accept that they alone are responsible for the actions leading to whatever disciplinary action there was, and takes it in stride. Some folks refuse to do that and either throw a hissy fit or try to convince everyone else that they were wronged. It's not the first time that's happened here.

He's not banned. He's enjoying a self-imposed exile because this place sucks.

Not cool at all. Completely irresponsible and gives all of us a really, really bad name. That said... the target has HUGE cajones.

It looks like my wife and I should easily be able to make it to this one. See you guys then.

Wow. Totally not a concession I'd make in exchange for the ability to work from home.

This is a great idea. I would recommend submitting these reviews to Google's own Google Places as well as Trip Adviser. Reviews from both of these sites come up almost automatically when you search for places to eat using an Android smart phone or an iPhone.

My grandfather used to call people like him "hang turds". They won't fall off no matter how hard you try to wiggle.

Disagree. The law enforcement community is a better indicator of what works on a daily basis in the sort of settings you are likely to be exposed to. Unless you are personally somehow bound by the Geneva Convention in respect to ammo choice, or the government issues you your weapon(s), your own gear selection shouldn't necessarily be swayed by what the military uses. And as for the Russians in their big heavy coats... logic would seem to dictate that the South Pole parka worn by the hoodlum holding you up at the ATM has very little in common with the construction of whatever garments the Russians were wearing during WWII. All things being equal, nothing here is equal.

Let's not get into the business of proliferating anecdotes. I've got friends who have told me all manner of bull**** before. It doesn't make it true.

After looking through the photos, it's obvious that a lot of effort went into organizing this. Grill, food, tables, fun... a job well done. Congrats!

You're right, actually. Sorry to be such an annoyance. Now if only I had done it 1000% more, it'd probably be a fair comparison... but it's an accurate accusation none the less. Back to your regular circle Jacking. /out

Wow I just looked at my last reply and realized that I totally hosed the multi-quote. My was actually a follow-up to Daniel's reply. Before that was supposed to be a worthwhile response to the question at hand. Sorry for that. Technology made me look like even more of an ass than I normally make myself.

Post #8... didn't take long at all.

I'll drink to this.

The city of LaVerge itself sucks but the part he's talking about is the Industrial Park which isn't so bad. Just very... industrial. LaVergne proper can be thought of as the DMZ between Antioch (gangville) and Smyrna (a nice place to live). It is a nice buffer therefore I'm glad it is there, however I wouldn't want to live in LaVergne. Period. There are nice parts of LaVergne, however, but unfortunately they suffer from the stigma of being part of LaVergne. I know several folks who live right across the Smyrna / LaVergne line and claim to be Smyrna residents even though they aren't technically. Sadly their property value doesn't reflect their personal beliefs.

Have you considered Lebanon / Mt Juliet? Both are in Wilson County. You're going to pay less for both real estate and on property taxes out there than you will in either Williamson or Rutherford counties. If I were to move inside the mid-state area right now, I would be looking at those places. Not to pick a bone with Mustangdave or anything, but Cane Ridge is still Antioch no matter how much the residents don't want it to be. They have made strides towards turning it into a very nice "Green Zone" (their own schools, their own post office, their own ZIP code) but the fact remains that prior to about 6 years ago it was all Antioch. What would help most would be a nice perimeter of concertina wire between Cane Ridge's very pretty upscale neighborhoods and the rest of Antioch. Maybe a moat. With a dragon. I'd seriously look for land along the SR-840 corridor between Rutherford and Wilson counties. Easy access to Lebanon, Mt. Juliet, Murfreesboro and Smyrna. Easy access to I-24 and I-40 for trips elsewhere. Lots of open space out there.
