April Fool's Day
I'm Baaaaaack! In fact I really never left, it was an April Fool's Joke.
Seems there was a Realtor's sign showed up in my yard so I left it there to see what kind of reaction it would bring. I placed the "Sold" sign on it and sure enough it created a lot of excitement among a few. Sorry if I traumatized a few by getting their hopes up that I was leaving and then dash those hopes on the rocks of grief and despair. To all those who called and those who wrote well wishes I apologize for the deception but life is short and we all need a few smiles every now and again.

Too funny! all too easy to get a rumor mill started from those ready to attack. Welcome back.
But shameful that an adult would resolt to such trickery just to get something stirred up.
Exactly, who would have put a for sale sign in Barrett's yard? Definitely some one very immature. But I do applaud the intro into a nice April fool's joke. Had a lot of biters.
3:12
I wouldn't put it past Barrett to have staged the entire episode. Does this bring to mind another caper involving signs? Why do they seem so similar?
Is false advertisement against the law? LOL
GOOD ONE, WAB.
6:19 just can't take a joke can you. bet you didn't even laugh when you were a member of the three stooges.
Ahhh, a classic April Fool's caper we won't soon forget. Hat's off.
There will also be hats off in the courtroom for the McAlister sign caper. When will that be coming up? I understand it will be right away, and I need to make plans to be there to watch.
If this blog is for news reporting, can someone shed any light on that?
Why don't you call Clay and ask him? You may also call the City of Pulaski's attorney Andy Hoover and ask him. Or call Barrett directly and ask him. Or why don't you call Chief Dickey and ask him. Or any of the other numerous officers named in the case? Since you want to know so bad wouldn't that be the best thing to do? Then you can contribute by posting your findings here or are you just on here to cause trouble?
I am rolling on the floor at the thought of what some of the people who'd love to have him move were doing` probably drank campagne, bought a car and called their friends~~~really like to have seen that balloon pop! I only hope he was recording the area to see who came to check it out~ Good one
9:46 (10:00)
No, I was simply pointing out the hypocrisy of it all.
Yes, I am sure there were a lot of happy people who had hoped barrett would be moving. But isn't it sad that there would be so many people out there who would be happy with that?
10:23 Doubt Mr. Barrett loses any sleep over who would like to see him gone as there are a greater number of folks who appreciate all he does for Giles county. Are you not the CG? You posted you were glad he was moving so are you PO'd you fell for the bait?
10:54
Yes, I am a Christian and a gentleman, and you can be assured that I was happy when I heard he was moving.
If there are a greater number of people here who appreciate troublemaking and the sowing of strife, then maybe I ought to move. Would that make you and the other one or two here happy?
Extremely happy, you April Fool!
12:49
Do you honestly think that a true Christian would take pleasure in trying to embarrass or make fools of others? Yes or no.
10:24 I was only posting the same as the enabler to show how foolish those type of posts are? Whenever any one asks a question about any government official it is always the same post from the enabler.
12.52 YES. At least in Giles county.
1:32
There is no enabler...unless it is you. I was called that name by none other than allen barrett. It was a lie when he told it and remains as such today. You keep promoting that lie, and I promise you that I will keep reminding you both that it is.
As I have asked you before, is there an issue you would like to discuss?
Keep reminding us all you want but as you tell lies on Barrett and others you are the true enabler. You always seem to forget that you are judged by your posts and not by anything Barrett has stated. You have been given ample opportunity to prove via facts anything contrary to you being an enabler of those in county government who chose to do wrong, but you have provided no proof and sided with ones who break the law when there is undeniable proof.
Any one can state they are not an enabler of wrongful deeds or that they are Christian but if it comes from the mouth of a proven liar such as yourself then it is just another lie. I'll keep reminding you of that.

Fayetteville Frito Lay Plant Gets Nod For Expansion
Posted on April 03, 2012
The Fayetteville Regional Planning Commission gave site plan approval last week for a 125,000-square-foot warehouse expansion at Frito-Lay.
The snack food manufacturer, which has produced chips at the Fayetteville plant since 1997, anticipates beginning construction in early May. Officials estimate that it will probably be March of 2013 before the expansion is completed.
Of the 125,000 square feet in additional warehouse space, 35,000 will consist of digitally controlled storage.
While representatives did not discuss how many additional jobs the expansion will create, they did note that 150 parking spaces are planned in support of the facility. A 20-foot wide gravel road, with three-foot shoulders on either side, is also expected to be added in support of the project.
Thank you EDC and IDB for blocking another opportunity for good paying jobs to come into Giles County. When is something going to be done about the imbeciles? We need more than a psychology major heading our EDC.
3:05
Oh trust me; I will remind you as often as you promote that lie barrett told. It makes the both of you look bad. Stop bringing it up, and you won't hear anything from me. But we both know you can't leave it alone...don't we? So who in reality is the enabler? I believe it's you.
Take your best shots. I'll be here, the Lord willing, to defend myself. There's absolutely no need for this kind of troublemaking.
You are.
12:52 I always heard the only one who can make a fool of someone is that person . No one else can make a fool of you and from the looks of it you didn't need any help making yourself look like a fool, but then look at all the practice you've had.
WAB Best April fool's joke I've heard in a long time.
I would of loved to have seen cg's face when he/she found out you really wasn't going anywhere. lol
We can’t control what other people do and how they decide to treat us, but we can control our response to them. “Do Yourself a Favor…Forgive”
10:22
I was disappointed but not surprised. Our county will never be rid of him.
Thank God!
I'm with you 1:06. This county needs Mr Barrett and more like him now more than ever.
I can't believe some people have blowed themselves up so much they can't laugh anymore, maybe they're afraid if they laugh their face will break and all that gas will escape. Even God has a sense of humor just look at how funny looking he made some of us.
Yeah, we need him all right....to leave and never come back.
Who is the most despicable man in Giles County? I would like to see someone take a survey and find out whose name will pop up the most.
CG and you are running neck and neck or maybe in the same clothes 10:41
11:50
Whjen he does leave, IO hope he will take you with him. But of course you and he may be one and the same. LOL!
Whjen?
10:41 cg!!
1:07
WHEN he does leave, I hope he will take you with him. But of course you and he may be one and the same.
10:41 You want a survey? Then YOU do it.
5:37
Why should I? I already know who will win hands down, and you do too.
Best April Fools joke yet. Thanks Allen. Keep up the good work.
10:05
You think it funny? It takes a devious mind to set traps like that. Idle hands truly are the devil's workshop. Aren't you enabling him by offering encouragement?
I don't understand this. If someone put a For Sale sign in WAB's yard, why is it WAB's fault for leaving it then putting SOLD over it.
8:06 is going to have a stroke if he/SHE don't get over her feelings for Barrett.
It's hard to take a joke when your head is kept in your intestinal track
when you see nothing but fecal matter flow in your life it's hard to have a sense of humor.

6:09 PM Then stop suggesting other people do your dirty work. Its a bad habit of yours - telling other people what to do.
It's my understanding that barrett himself put the sign in the yard. Is that not true?
Apparently he only placed the sold portion on a sign that one of his admirers stuck in his yard. Did you not read his posts or are you just attacking him again?

Please elaborate on your statement. Was it gossip, did you witness it, are you making "your understanding" up, is your bias against Mr. Barrett causing you to "blow smoke" and attempt to make him look bad in every situation causing you create idiotic statements, etc.?I am sincerely asking this,and as a Christian, I would think you would want others to "understand" also.
If you are a gentleman as you claim, you will help this Christian Lady understand your understanding.
Thank you in advance.
12:01
Look, someone on this blog aluded to that as a possibility. Nobody said it was a fact. I think it's not beyond the realm of possibility. Did he move the sign in his yard or not? I don't know.
8:49 What does it matter who put the sign there?
Look, yourself. You are right, someone on this blog did alude to the possibility that he put the sign in his yard. It was you. On the attack again, saying Mr. Barrett is stirring up trouble when it is you and you alone that slings mud, calls names, makes wild accusations at a private citizen with no proof or examples of his behavior. You even lie on a regular basis. You promised you would speak out against any public official that engaged in illegal or unethical behavior. Mrs. Garner admitted to such behavior and said she would do it again. Your response was that you didn't know enough about the situation to comment. What a cop-out. Always demanding that issues should be discussed but when someone asks you a question regarding ANY issue, you claim people are making light of your Christianity and quickly steer the "conversation" away from the issues. The only issue worthy of input in your eyes is how bad you think Mr. Barrett is and that anyone who speaks against POSSIBLE corruption is a Barrett follower. That in itself makes you a liar as you also claim there are only two or three of those followers. Also you lied when you said you never accused Mr. Barrett of posting anonymously. You've done that on a regular basis. When your lies don't work and someone calls you on it, you quickly start whining that people are attacking your Christianity, and that has never happened. And now with this thread, you can't even enjoy the hilarious April Fool's Day harmless fun. You have to turn it into an evil and diabolical plot conceived by "Mr. Barrett and one or two loyal followers." I've heard many non-Christians claim that the reason they are not interested in becoming a Christian is because they can't have any fun. You confirmed their erroneous belief and unfortunately, you may be the only BIBLE those people ever read. So again let me ask, where did you hear that Mr. Barrett put the sign in his own yard? (and btw when did someone putting a "for sale" in their own yard become a trouble-making event?)
Anonymous Lady (who is calling the enabler's bluff)
10:00
Wrong. I was NOT the one who made that statement about barrett.
I stand by what I said about Mrs. Garner. I do NOT know enough about the situation to comment one way or the other. OK?
Since you are so concerned with my previous posts, why don't you go find the one wherein I said that if a certain county official did not have the proper credentials then he should not have the job he now has. Go look for it instead of calling names and making false accusations about me.
I'm wondering if you aren't simply angry that a certian person we know can't get elected or even appointed as dogcatcher in Giles County? Isn't that really what's in play here? Jealousy and resentment?
As for my opinion on barrett, you are right. Yes, I think he is a bad person who has caused this county a lot of misery. That's an opinion for which I am just as entitled to hold as the one you have toward me.
As I said before, I simply commented on the fact that barrett may have planned the entire scenario about the sign in his (or your) yard. I don't KNOW what happened there. Someone else mentioned that he could have done that, and I merely agreed that it was a possibility. That's EXACTLY what I did with respect to barrett's posting anonymously.
Read your post again, and ask yourself if you aren't trying to be a troublemaker.
HMMMMMM, So you know enough gossip that you can comment on the possibility that Mr. Barrett (a private citizen) may or may not have started the whole clever, very funny joke or if he just took advantage of a trespasser's mischief and capitalized on it which ended up being hilarious. That you can comment on but when a PUBLIC official, whose salary I pay breaks a county ordinance, says she broke a county ordinance, and boldly proclaims that she would do it again, you don't know enough to comment. What is there to know. An ordinance was in effect, the ordinance was violated and the offender not only admitted to it, but plainly said she would do so again if SHE felt it necessary. It is not up to her to make that call.
So let me see if I got this straight: Gossip and innuendo you can comment on but you don't have any comments on a situation that you have the facts for? Does that pretty much sum it. So much for holding officials feet to the fire as you claimed you would. That's just one example of your many lies. You frequently claimed, regardless of how many times you deny it or attempt some silly semantic game. Another example of your lies. You attempt to order people how they should feel about and issue and try and squash freedom of speech when mature adults want to discuss those whose salaries we pay, yet you have no problem name calling and slandering a private citizen. Not that it's any concern of yours, but I don't live in the district that Mr. Barrett lives in so his winning or losing the "election" is a moot point. You claim he has no power yet you yourself gave him enough power to force a magistrate and police officer to serve a warrant on a retired officer with, according to you, no proof of a crime. That sounds to me like he has a lot of power. You profess to hate this blog, yet you canm't get enough of it. Yet more lies. And as I said in a previous post, you delight in the misfortune of another of God's chilren, laugh at him, make fun of him and call him all manner of hateful names. You claim he is a "bad" man. You are being judgmental in the highest degree. You never ever are willing to discuss issues, yet you claim you want to in most of your tirades against one citizen who allows you to ramble on his blog. As I said, you may be the only Bible someone reads. Deal with that!
12:59 Go boy or girl go. I love your post. You told it like it is.
We don't have to care if Barrett gets elected or not to not like the way cg post. I think he does more good not being elected he has kept them better than before.
The paper had what Garner said, I still can't see how she gets away with it. I know some Commissioners didn't like what she said.
12:59
You are correct. It is my firm opinion that barrett is a bad person. I have as much right to my opinion of him as you do of me. But I know who I am, and I don't need your approval.
You mentioned the serving of a warrant on a retired police officer. Mr. McAlister says he is innocent, and it is also my right to believe what he says. Time will tell the story on that anyhow.
To say I delight in the misfortunes of one of God's children is simply a lie. Deal with that.
Oh, is there an issue to discuss? It seems all I do on here is defend myself. Let's talk issues then.
My opinion is when 2:26 talks issues instead of being against WAB or who ever posted against Mrs. Vanzant some commissioners or Mrs. Garner others will talk issues.
I don't understand the fuss over a sign. What does it matter? Did it hurt anyone?
A good April fool joke or not, it's funny.
you right 5:37 everbody got a good laught but old cg who ain't had a good laugh since 1968 when he had his last bowel movement.
8:43
Well, I see you just can't let this thing between you and me go, can you? What is the matter with you? Is your life that dull and empty?
May I suggest that you make friends with the Lord Jesus Christ and perhaps you will then stop attacking me?
By the way, that smart remark about my bowel movements was so asinine. Besides, my toileting habits are none of your business anyway.
Do you have an issue you want to discuss or do we talk about defecation and regularity?
Perhaps the blogmaster will open a new thread on the issue of irregularity and how to deal with it?
9:03 Whine, whine, whine. If you used the toilet you would drown.
8:26
How often do you have a bowel movement? Let's discuss it, shall we? I believe it's a topic well-suited for this blog.
9:03 For once will you take your own advice and not worry about others. If any one on here needs to develop a relationship with Jesus it is you.
5:39
Thank for your concern, but I already know the Lord Jesus Christ.
To the one who embraces the title of "enabler." True to form, you answered none of my questions. You also assumed that 6:21's posts were mine. Guess that's two of the three "followers" speaking out today. You've got a lot of nerve telling anyone that "If any one on here needs to develop a relationship with Jesus it is you." Again, that is a judgement and the BIBLE is very clear about judging others harshly. I really wish you would stop the judging as there are probably many non-Christians reading this blog and your attitude MIGHT (please do not skip the word "MIGHT")cause these souls to have the wrong idea about our loving and caring SAVIOR! I did not lie when I stated that you laugh at another of GOD's children when problems arise. There are countless examples on this blog of you trying to humiliate Mr. Barrett and anyone that agrees with him. You laughed about the election, you laugh when you state he will never be a part of our local government, you laughed when a lawsuit arose, which ironically gives him an awful lot of power. (and this is just a small fraction of the lies you have told while proving that I indeed told the truth.) And the real irony of it all is that it is YOU that gave him the power. Apparently he is being sued for defamation as the tape he produced goes blank at just the right time. So, putting YOUR posts together, Mr. Barrett, according to you was able to convince a police officer and a magistrate to take legal action with absolutely no proof at all. As I said before, that is pretty powerful. If that's not what happened, (remember this is the scenario you have laid out), then you have to be accusing the magistrate and officer of being neglectful in their duties. So which is it? They two scenarios are mutually exclusive, so since you believe Mr. McAllister, is Mr. Barrett that powerful or are the others failing to do their duties?
I have no illusions that you will actually address any point in my post, but I do hope it will give you something to think about, especially your harsh judgements of people. You asked if others before this post if they wanted to discuss issues, I am answering with a resounding "YES". Please discuss the issues in my post.
9:37
You seem woefully confused. I did post 9:03 and 6:21 but NOT 5:39.
Now, as for as "embracing" the lie allen barrett told that I enable wrong, I completely reject and deny that.
Yes, I believe there are one or possibly two on this blog who have attacked those like me who have the audacity to have different views about thing. Aren't you one of them?
I suppose you could say that I laughed about barrett's losing his second bid for a commission seat. I was relieved that he was defeated. I have a right to that opinion.
Yes, I understand that wab is being sued by Mr. McAlister, and it is my belief that he (Mr. McAlister) was telling the truth. I also have a right to that belief. And I am not accusing anyone of anything with respect to this trial.
You charge that I have tried countless times to humiliate wab. That's simply not true. However, I do plead guilty to asking him to stop with the name-calling and troublemaking. It is my opinion that he has caused immeasurable strife in this county. I have a right to that opinion.
Have I answered at least some of your concerns?
Peace.
10:06 The only thing you cleared up was that you and McAlister are abouit equal when it comes to lying. You him and Janet are cut from the same cloth
liars, liars liars.
7:38
We shall see.
12:26 Are we going to see if cg is about equal with Mr. Mc Alister?
Would think Mr McAlister is better than cg.
I hate Clay let cg's whining about the sign got him to trying to fix the problem by moving Mrs. Vanzant's sign out where it could be seen.
No you just ducked and dodged; You have countless times laughed at and ridiculed Mr. Barrett and others. You have some ridiculous notion that only 3 people disagree with you. A number you undoubtedly pulled out of the air as there is no basis for that #. You can't have it both ways regarding the lawsuit. Either there was something on the tape that made the officer do his duty or there wasn't and the "powerless" WAB convinced those in charge to issue a warrant anyway. Which is it? What about the officials that have admitted to wrong doing, still don't know enough about the situation? The ordinances and laws are facts that can be researched, but that is much more difficult that tossing barbs at others, and keeping your word regarding speaking out against officials who do wrong.
I am done with you. I refuse to engage further useless dialogue.
1:44
Yes, I have laughed at and ridiculed barrett on many occasions as have "countless" others.
You are done with me? I hope I can take you at your word on that.
Many others, sooo just following.
I heard McAlister spent a bundle on lawyers and didn't even get enough to break even. What a dunce.
10:42
If Mr. McAlister got a settlement, what does that say for his innocence? And if he got anything at all, it looks to me like that would prove it.
11:05 Could it be like the county gave a settlement to a lady? Guess that means vanzant wasn't innocence.
Was the settlement your big story?
8:29
Look, all i asked was if Mr. McAlister received a settlement, would that not show him to be innocent? Well, would it?
9:06 AM No, it would not show McAlister to be innocent. Sometimes attorneys settle on a token gesture from everyone involved to pay a bit towards costs. You can bet your life if Barrett was wrong he would have been sued for all he is worth. Besides, isn't that what the CG 'knew' was going to happen? Too bad you may have missed the theater of the courtroom case that you were looking foward to attending. that is if the case has truly been settled.
9:06 No it wouldn't rove he is innocent. 9:39 just gave a good answer for you.
Did it prove vanzant was innocent when the county paid off Mrs. White?
10:05
Oh, but it would prove Mr. McAlister was innocent. Accept that and let's move on.
So the county was guilty of discrimination because they settled with Mrs. White. Per 10:20's thinking let's all accept that and move on.
10:20 Sure move on, don't say anything against vanzant.
12:32 I agree with you.
One can't be innocent when they pay off and the other one not. lol
McAlister is stupid and this lawsuit just proves it all over again. He was a bully when he was a THP and he is still a bully.
11:33
If Mr. McAlister won a settlement, does that not tell you that he was innocent? Did he win? If he did, then who did the court think was the liar?
Did the county win the lawsuit against Mrs. White? No Mrs. White got the money.
I don't know McAlister or anything about him. If he won, how much did he get? Did he get money from the city and policeman too?
If he won it should of been told on the radio and in the paper.
I haven't heard anything about a trail for Mr. McAlister. If he got paid off does that have anything to do with what the court thought? I thought that was just an agreement between two lawyers and their client.
8:49 Not if there was a gag order.
Who wanted the gag order?
If I was McAlister I certainly wouldn't sign for the gag order unless
I needed the money badly.
11:35
I don't know that anybody did. I was simply making a statement.
12:14
Perhaps wab can enlighten the readers as to what's going on with that case.
When is the gossiping huge story coming out?
It's out there already
5:53 Out where?
At the gossip's meeting place.
7:06
Instead of shooting off your mouth and trying to impress your buddies on here, why don't you try to find out for yourself what the story seems to be?
I doubt there is a story. Someone wanted people to think they were big and knew something others didn't know.
How would you suggest I go about finding out the story?
Everyone I've talked to hasn't heard of a big story.
6:18
If what I heard is true it's going to make someone look really bad.
6:31 That someone must be WAB.
I asked around town today and no one knew what I was talking about. All that accomplished was I joined the gossips.
Ask Mr.Barrett. If what I heard is true, he knows.
I don't know Barrett. Would he tell a stranger and who would I say heard a huge story? Maybe say cg heard a huge story?
9:48
As I've told you on more than one occasion, you just can't seem to stand the fact that I refer to myself as a Christian (not an enabler of wrongdoings) and a gentleman (not a female)? Why can't you just let it go?
Yeah, you know barrett; please don't lie.
I don't know about 9:48 but I don't know Barrett. I've seen him on what video's have been taped of the commissioner meetings and read this blog. But as far as personal knowing him or him knowing me, no.
Why do you think everybody that don't agree with you is a buddy of Barrett?
Again I don't see where 9:48 can't get over you being a christian and a gentleman. Didn't I see where you signed a post as CG. Sounds like you don't want to be called that or was it your only way of whining.
Have a good day, I have to go to work now at my job out of the county.
4:38
Well, you do make a good point or two. Food for thought, you know.
Yes, I've signed some of my posts as CG when I wanted to make sure I was identified as the writer. You know how it goes...on this blog, ownership of some posts are just so mandatory.
I never said that EVERYBODY who disagrees with me is a friend of barrett. But those who give me a hard time on this blog ARE his buddies.
6:00 you are so full of it it must be seeping out your ears that's why even your comments stink. You refer to yourself as a Christian Gentleman and continually whine that you are such but when someone refers to you as the Christian Gentleman you have a hissy fit and whine that they are making fun of your religion. Personally I'm convinced that you are just a stupid person who can't resist writing and take both side of the issue of being and enabler of wrong doing/Christian gentleman. How do you want people to identify you if no name used so far is acceptable even the one given to yourself.
7:51
Well, at least you didn't call me a fool in this post.
The only enablers of wrongdoing I see on here are those like you who insist on keeping something stirred up. I prefer being thought of as a Christian and as a gentleman. Thank you.
I'll say it. You are a fool 8:13. Why do you not want to take ownership of all your posts? Maybe the the alleged anonymous Barret posts are the posts you do not want any one to know were actually yours.
Sincerely,
CG Lies & Whines
10:47 I noticed that you always post anonymously, so let me ask you again. Can you not see any hypocrisy in your behavior?
You just can't let this go, can you? Why does it offend you that I refer to myself as a Christian? If I'm a fool for being a Christian, then so be it. I believe the Apopstle Paul was quoted as saying he was a fool for Christ. But that was because of scoffers like you.
12:50 When you post anonymous how can you accuse someone else of posting anonymous. Are you loosing it over this blog?
I can't see 10:47 saying anything about you being a Christian. You just can't stand it that is their way of identifying you.
1:44
On the contrary. I hope people will always know me as a Christian.
I have never made anonymous posting an issue. You guys do enoguh of that, so why should i add to the strife?
4:12 Did you post 12:50?
7:03
Indeed , I did. Why?
7:48 Here is why.. "10:47 I noticed that you always post anonymously, so let me ask you again. Can you not see any hypocrisy in your behavior?"
Is that not making anonymous an issue?
6:01 It's the quarrelsome who want to make it an issue. I dfon't care who posts anonymously.
Is there an issue on the horizon that needs to fiscussed other than who maqy be a Christian and who posts anonymously? Is this all there is?
The Apostle Paul was indeed "a fool for Christ" and he spend the last years of his life proving it. You are simply a fool for yourself and prove it with every post. Pitiful, just pitiful. The way you use Christian is blasphemous.
11:43
Wrong. Blasphemy is in essence the unforgiveable sin of unbelief. I am certainly not one of those.
I have on many occasions given a clear and understandable reason for referring to myself as a Christian. It was because allen barrett demanded proof that I am not one who goes along with wrongdoings. To me, that was my best proof, and neither he nor you could accept it. Instead it's been a constant attack on me for making that claim. THAT is what is pitiful.
You may call me a fool all you want, but it doesn't change one thing. Do you routinely run around calling people fools for being Christians? Pitifil, pitiful if you do.
didn't call you a fool for being a Christian, fool. I called you a Christian because of the way you act and talk. Your reason for not being a enebler is because you said you ain't just don't cut it then you hide behind being a Christian to keep from showing any proof you don't enebe. Barrett already showed to much proof that you are a enabler for you to deny it.
1:37
Wrong once again. The fact that I am a Christian is all the proof I needed to offer. The way I act and talk proves that.
The problem is that barrett lied. Neither he nor you can accept it, and that's too bad.
Your turn again.
Has this blog degenerated to a discussion of whether or not I'm a Christian? Are there other issues besdies that?
Who created this problem anyhow? I only defended myself against a lie that was told on me.
Wasn't a lie you defended the behavior of Terry Harwell when he attacked a private citizen even after you watched the attack on youtube. You defended the behavior of Garner when she dipped into the hospital money even when she made a public acknowledgement of doing it, you defended Vanzant when she lied on a bunch of things, Whether you are a Christian or not isn't my call or concern but being a Christian don't prevent a person from enabling wrongdoing when it suits them.
3:24
Here we go again. You just can't stand it that I refer to myself as a Christian. As long as you keep bringing it up, we will have confrontation. Isn't this getting old for you? Haven't I many times explained to you my reason for referring to myself as a Christian gentleman? It's making you look pretty foolish.
NOW, as for defending Mr. Harwell's right to come to the aid of his wife, you are right. Furthermore, I am not aware of the lies you accuse Mrs. Vanzant of telling. Moreover, I do not know what happened with respect to Mrs. Garner and the hospital funds. But I do know that she would not have done that without some prior sanctioning and permission...perhaps out of necessity.
You are right that whether or not I am a Christian is not your call or concern. If you really believe that, why don't you stop trying to judge me? True Christians do not willfully go along with wrongdoings anymore than they would willfully tell lies and cause trouble in the community.
Ok, it's again your turn.
3:24
I just had a brainstorm. Why don't you suggest to barrett that he change the name of this blog to
"Name That Christian"? That way, it would sound more like the game show that it's evolving into. Just a thought.
Will you ever understand that people are not critical or or complaining about you being a Christian, I know it's convenient for you to think that so you don't have to talk about what people are really saying. If Mrs Garner gave an interview in the paper and told the whole story that she dipped into the hospital money and would do it again if SHE felt like it. She also said she did not check with or get approval from anyone. So how can you deny she did wrong. Claiming to not know anything about it is like that fat sgt. on Hogans Heroes who never knew anything. But you always to claim to know so much about everything else. You are either a liar, a fool or supporter of wrong. You can't close your eyes and pretend everything is OK except some people are making fun of you being a Christian. Outrageous.
7:04
I only referred to myself as a Christian because of the lie allen barrett told on me that I willfully go along with wrongdoing. That's a low-down lie.
You know what? The more you make this an issue, the more I am going to remindf you that he did tell that lie. It makes the both of you look bad.
My offer stills stands. Stop promoting that lie, and I won't make any further comments about it. In time, people will forget it. That's a win-win situation for the both of you.
Again, I believe it's your turn.
4:40
You said:
I do not know what happened with respect to Mrs. Garner and the hospital funds. But I do know that she would not have done that without some prior sanctioning and permission...perhaps out of necessity.
Did she not state in the paper she didn't ask anyone and she would do it again?
All I'm asking is an answer to that question. Did she or not?
9:37
Look, I stand by what I said. I do not know enough about it to comment one way or the other. And I didn't read what was said in the newspaper. However, if she misused funds, please tell me why the state wasn't on her like a duck on a June bug. Could you do that for me?
You don't read the paper?
I thought you knew everything going on. Guess word of mouth is how you get your news.
Sometimes thing are done that shouldn't be yet not bad enough for the state to jump. One reason I've heard why nothing was done is too many commissioners wouldn't go against vanzant. One thing they wouldn't get paid if there was no money. Ambulance and police wouldn't get paid.
11:07
Actually, I don't read the paper very often. But that's none of your business.
I am well read and usually am reading two or three books at a time.
I think you have been listening to a troublemaker too long now and need to start thinking for yourself. There's no need for all this jealousy and resentment. Those things, just like love for one another, are quite contagious.
8:19 I read books also but never two or three at a time. I finish one before starting another. But those books have nothing to do with what is going on in the county.
I understand anyone not reading the paper, you've already heard it somewhere else before it's in there.
Even the radio, it always "thanks to a Lawrenceburg paper, radio or somewhere else" when you do read or hear it.
8:19 I used to read two and three books at a time to but I kept dropping them when I tried to turn the pages so now I only read one at a time.
Maybe if you stop reading so many at the same time and concentrate on just one you would understand it better but I guess it don't take much to read Superman, Batman and Archie all at the same time.
I don't understand why evrbody don't just laugh at the joke Barrett played and get on with life.
8:37 (9:330
I realize that yopu are just trying to impress your one or two allies here, but you knew perfectly well what I meant by reading two or three books at any given time. You know I didn't say I try to read all three at the exact same time.
Although it's none of your business, the three I am reading right now are The Measure of a Man by Sidney Poitier, No Higher Honor by Dr. Condi Rice, and The Conservative Mind from Burke to Eliot by Russell Kirk. What about that? I'm fairly certain these are over your head, and its laughable how familiar you are with comic books.
Do you have anything you want to discuss or is this all you've got?
Try reading "Dreams of my Father" or have you already it?
You think everyone else is so dumb but you. So how could we know what you mean?
You said reading two or three books at a time. Little word AT.
8:23
Well here you are spewing again. Don't you have anything to do?
No, I wouldn't read that Obama book. I only keep quality books in my home library.
Who do you thinki you are to be passing judgment on me that I think I'm smarter than anyone else. That's a lie. The only one I know of who thinks like that is the one who constantly tries to portray those he dislikes or resents as unintelligent, anal buffoons. And you defend him. Can you see the irony?
I thought I had made it more than clear what I meant by reading two or three books at a time.
Is there anything you want to discuss besdies me?
Your turn.
Just one thing you said that sounded like you thought you was smarter than
who ever posted 9:33: "I'm fairly certain these are over your head,"
7:38
Look, the attacker was smarting off to me about the books I read. He/she referred to them as comic books. So I responded with the names of three books I am reading right now. Yes, I did say they were probably over that person's head Tit for tat, you know. Ohover that person's head.
Question. Why was it ok for the writer to make a smart remark about what I reade but NOT ACCEPTABLE for me to respond in like manner? Please answer that question for me? Do you see any hypocrisy in your thinking?
You attacked two different post.
I think you call for the snide remark made about you. You bring it on yourself, how about watching the way you say things and I pray they want come back at you.
Saw this and thought of you, cg
“Honey, folks are gonna talk about you till the day you die...
and ain't nothing you can do .
LET FOLKS TALK
It ain't about what they call you,
it's what you answer to. You
remember that. You hear me?”
-Madea-
10:18 (10:26)
Wrong. I never would have responded as I did had the smart-aleck and classless remark not been made. Again, why is ok for you guys to smart off but not OK for someone else to do it? Hypocritical, don't you think?
People are going to talk about me til the day I die. I hope when it's all over they will say I was a Christian man. What about you?
You need to take longer breaks between posts.
Ok, your turn again.
One post wasn't. Thinking power a little off.
11:17 Your problem is that no one is talking about you. You nevr done nothing worth talking about and you ain't nothing worth talking about.
You just get on here and try to sound important but you can't say nothing but your opinion and everbody got one of them. You just try to make people think you know things and or important but you not that the reason you so full of hate and angry. You need to face the facts youu just ain't important enough to talk about ad that what make you so mad.
11:51
Please answer the question. Why is it ok for you guys to smart off but not ok for someone else to do it? Again, can you see the hypocrisy?
I only ask that those who truly are filled with hate and jealousy stop mistreating those who have different opinions and views. You guys sghould know by now that you have made yourselves out to be the laughing stocks of Giles County. Don't take my word for that; just ask around.
How about taking your own opinion.
"I only ask that those who truly are filled with hate and jealousy stop mistreating those who have different opinions and views."
I've asked around town, yes I was gossiping," and they will laugh and say which one Barrett or the Christan Gentleman, don't see any difference.
One big difference is Barrett signs what he writes and everyone knows its him. If you don't like what he says call him up and complain.
On the other hand old CG is still shaking in their anonymous closet spreading rumors and gossip and never takes responsibility for what he writes.
3:27 and 3:27
I'm sure you did. Hilarious.
Exacttly what rumors have I spread? May I have an example since you keep such close tabs on me?
I'm not about to call that guy up. What would be the point. He would right, and I would be wrong.
Thanks for referring to me as a Christian gentleman.
Your turn.
5:56 I see you got so excited you double posted again. What ain't you spread like jam on bread.
Evertime you pass 2nd and 3rd hand info you pass on gossip and that's a mighty fine occupation for a fine Christian Gentleman.
6:22
Judge me if you must, but your verdict doesn't count. I am a Christian and a gentleman, and you apparently just cannot stand that.
Exactly what gossip have I passed on?
7:33
Actually, what you and the other one or two can't stand is the fact that I disagree with most of what you guys are doing, and I do NOT respect or admire the troublemaker-in-chief. To me, hypocrisy and arrogance are not very fashionable traits. Would you agree with me on that?
The truth and self confidence are to be praised and that is what you severely lack.
7:21
Hypocrisy can be dressed up to appear pleasing right along with arrogance and pride, but those virtues do not come anywhere close to being fashionable.
6:12 You are probably right a lot can't stand you disagree with them. But turn it around, you can't stand that they disagree with you. tit for tat.
Wrong. I just don't like the constant attacks.
Maybe they don't like your attacks. Did you ever think about that?
10:36
As I told you on another thread this morning, I have asked that the name-calling and personal attacks stop. If you've been reading this blog very long, you know this.
If you want it to stop, why attack back? I've noticed you have the last post on every thread.
8:39 You confuse counter-attacking with self defense.
Your turn.
Did anyone ever find out what the huge story was?
It's being kept quiet. Shameful.
Shameful is right.
It's nothing just someone trying to stir up trouble.
Happy Mother's Day to all Mothers.
hehehe 6:44...you said tit.
