God is so good. Chick-fil-a blessed many families with their generosity. The staff at Beechwood and Epps Bridge were outstanding in their handling of the stampede that stormed thru their barn doors in spite of the drenching sun showers that moved over the lunch and dinner crowds! Moo! We love you folks from the chicken coup!

Imagine that! A mockery of a representative calling an issue a mockery! How much of his outrageousRead More salary and benefit package is he willing to give up? And what he calls fact is seriously distorted information. Good leaders don't run and hide from an issue and then blame others for their shortcomings... I realize good leaders are hard to find.... but, why do we continue to tolerate mediocrity? A vacant seat would be just as effective as this congressman... actually, as I think about it, probably more effective.
