Chief Prady, good luck and God bless. You will be greatly missed as a Town Official. Chief Barnett, congrats and well deserved. I don't think the town could have went wrong with any of the applicants. Some of the finest officers in the County applied for this job and I know it was a difficult decision to make and I am sure it will not be one that will be regretted. Mayor keep doing what your doing.

Congrats goes out to Chief Ed Prady for his retirement. However it will be a sad day in Thorsby particulary the City Hall and Police Departments as he is a great asset to the department. No offense to other Police Chiefs in the County (I'm sure they will all agree) Prady is by far the best in his position. We wish you luck Chief Prady.

Like Paradise I too have some knowledge of broadband as I have had all that is available in Chilton County. Everything he/she said is correct. Use their advice when considering a provider. As my username states I work in that industry and for the Chilton County area I too reccomend for home use Tridigital or DSL (where available)The satellite service is expensive (up front) and Monthly and the FAP (Fair Access Policy) will cause you headaches. This is what KatherineReece was talking about. If you go over an alloted download/upload threshhold they will scale your speed back for a 24hour period that is not much better than dialup. You may say I don't do web based backup's or maintain a web site...Well do you have kids? or you yourself use Myspace, facebook or online gaming? These sites eat up bandwidth and WILL go over your threshold. Not to mention if you online game or have a child that does you can forget it with satellite becaust of the latency that Paradise described.

Some of the points above are warranted.The law does say speeding tickets however there is no mention of a speeding ticket. It says "a traffic violation" Personally I am glad he was stopped and caught no matter what the reason or who stopped him. At least he was not able to stop anywhere along the next 3 exits and sell those drugs to one of Chilton Counties children or adults for that matter.
That part of the Interstate where they sit is in the Jemison City limits and a part of Jemison, therefore it is also Jemison PD's responsibility to cover. If something were to happen in that section of the interstate Jemison would be required to respond. Contrary to popular belief. The police in this County are the good guys and they ALL work hard with what they are given to work with. Rarely are they praised for the good they do but often pounded when some individuals don't agree with what is done. Just my thoughts.

Paw Paw was a Guardian Angel of sorts for many Officers over the years including myself while he worked at communications. He will no longer tell us where to go but he will continue to be with us while were there. May God bless his family.
