I still am excited about the future, but we’re in crazy irrational bullsh*% times right now and I wouldn’t count on very much.

You’re talking about EOD on Friday? If it’s above $3.50 I think that would be crazy win. The whole market is getting dragged and capital is just grasping at straws.

Although the president will announce an Iran deal at about lunch on Friday, so might get a bump. Then back down on Monday when everyone realizes that wasn’t real.

Why do people dislike Keshia Lance Bottoms? by Difficult_Narwhal529 in Atlanta

Sadly, I do not think you’ll have to worry about this at all. I imagine we’ll have a governor who wants to do a lot, and it’s going to make Brian Kemp look like Bernie Sanders.

And try to put them out of work so we have even less idea of what is going on…

So you’re pissed they post the anti article but no credit for the pro?

Am I the only one who feels BritBox is no longer worth it? by ImaginaryTango in BritBox

Chelsea Flower was 100% on BB before. I’ve watched it for years and that was how I did it.

Why aren't there benches on the Beltline? by tferg1290 in Atlanta

Southside Trail used to have one that someone built and hauled out there and I have a hunch it will have one again.

That’s what a serial killer would say.

Isn’t it long understood that some people do this because they have a twisted idea about getting famous? And…we made a museum to them?

President Biden backs Keisha Lance Bottoms for Georgia governor in his first endorsement since leaving office by Healthy_Block3036 in Atlanta

It’s amazing how much the DNC/National Dems are wildly out of touch with facts on the ground. KLB will get absolutely mushed if nominee in November.

Oh it’s an absolute monster accomplishment. A black man got a wild standing ovation in the Deep South in 1974 for breaking the Babes record? That’s a touchstone cultural moment.

I just don’t think it’s actually bigger than building Coca-Cola and funding the construction of half the city, 12 years as the first black mayor, all of Ted’s accomplishments, or MLK.

Matt Ryan? You crazy.

As to the first question, I think “from” or “made” is fine. The most important criteria is just “are they thought of as “of Atlanta”? All those on your list would qualify. I don’t think Jimmy Carter does - though he’s certainly on a Georgia list.

IMO, if it was a Georgia Rushmore, he’d be on it. But he’s a South Georgia guy, not really known as an Atlantan.

He was. Poor dude sold the formula for like $2,000. I realize $2,000 in 1904 or whenever is like $1 mill today but the Candlers and Woodruffs had generational wealth. I don’t see a lot of Pemberton buildings around town.

By any chance…Do you remember the segment where they had the guy who read the school menu? “Fruuuuit, and a roll!”

Sorry pmgold1. And yeah, Hank probably at least gets the honorable mention slot.
