Does Minooka offer horseback riding? We don't need a paved road just somewhere closer than Heflin and Sulfur Springs (Cullman area) to camp and ride our ole mules.

Simple Question! If the County were to vote to go wet would all the different cities have to go through this? I actually don't know, just wandering!

I loved the quote by Judge Martin " He let his employees leave at 3 after an exceptionally slow day". I started working for the State 21 years ago and the one thing I was told when I was hired, In private business you earn enough business to get paid, in goverment the money is already there (taxes) it is our responsibility to use it wisely. So to say " we didn't take in enough to pay the clerks", that comment really don't hold water to me.

Sure has been a lot of stuff went on at that trailer park in the past few months / years. It's one thing to be low income but another thing to just plain be a lazy thug. When I was his age I didn't have money either but I worked every little odd job I could to make money, never even thought of robbery, stealing or anything like that. PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY!!!!!

Steve, You know it's always someone else's fault. Personal responsibility doesn't exist anymore just finger pointing.

The amount of rain we have had along with the fact that the ground is already saturated, is going to cause more flooding. Be realistic, no matter how educated an engineer may be, you can't control flood waters in a flood zone.

Just curious countywatch... what is your solution to keeping flood waters moving? I am not an engineer but I have worked in this type field for 21 years and there are places that when flood waters get up, we must wait for them to go down and address any problems. It has nothing to do with Engineering and everything to do with location. I guess you could eliminate the roads in flood areas and this would solve the problem but then how would people (who choose to live there) get to their homes? Just asking.

Paving a road also will not elimate flooding, that seems like 2 different complaints all together.

That's too funny. I haven't seen it but it reminds me of an e mail I saw when workers were painting the word SCHOOL at a crossing and spelled it SCHOLL. I guess that's what happens when you get bored with your job.
