Horror Hill

Any thoughts on Horror Hill and the county trying to shut it down?? Its been in business for nearly 30 years with no major incidents. Why does the county suddenly have a problem with it? C. Stanford

Truitt Cathy / Ted Turner

Not that I uphold this man in any way but I remember when all the Christians were up in arms when Ted Turner made all his statements about religion and such. All the nonchristians were supportive. Now Tuitt Cathy makes a statement about his views and the Christians are supporting him and the non Christians are not. His personal views are not those of Chikfila but his own. Don't throw rocks at the company or those who work there because of his opinion. I dont remember anyone boycotting turner field or tbs. I'm a Christian and while I dont love homosexuality I am commanded by God to love everyone as I love myself. To love the sinner but the sin. I may not love it when my daughter disobeys me but I still love my daughter. Ok theres my soap box for the day.

Bank Fees

Anyone else notice that Bank of Coweta is charging to cash a check on a person who has an account with them. My wife went up there to cash a personal check for her mother who has an account there(since it opened) and they wanted to charge my wife $5 to cash a $200 check. Man that bank is getting worse and worse. Bank of America and BB&T don't do that to their customers. Just saying, the banks are ridiculously in a bad way. I will not do business with banks like that....Regions is worse!

Chick-fil-A Kiss In

Here's my Vent... Mad because my 10 year old felt the need to ask why people were planning to do a kiss-in at Chick-fila. Why does a 10 year old have to worry about such things.

wording of the amendments

Sometimes when I'm in the voting booth I just want to turn around and ask "am I the only one who doesn't understand what this is saying?" The wording of the amendments is ridiculous.

Coweta County Job Openings

Why don't they ever advertise any of the Government job openings in Coweta County any more? They used to put them in the paper and on the county website, now it seems like its just for people in the know. They haven't posted a job opening in years on the website. submitted by J. Smith

Sharpsburg Business Owner

In reply to vent regarding "the owner" of the shops in Sharpsburg is the one who has ruined the town.  Why would "the owner" want to ruin Sharpsburg??   He has promoted Sharpsburg all his life, his ancestors starting the town, and brought hundreds of people to shop in the town at the Spring and Fall Festivals.   This was great until the mayor found out that the government would give thousands of dollars to improve small towns.  He had no money to run "his" town so he hired staff and they got the grant.  Did he use the money to improve the town and help the people living there??  Such as sewage especially since the town's historic older buildings were built over a hundred years ago and cover the downtown and there is no place for septic tanks hence no toilets in the old post office, drug store, bank, etc.  No, he chose to beautify the city by ruining the "old town historic" look adding fancy sidewalks and cutting up the parking area so very few cars can park by the stores and ruining the entrances to residences.  Then, along come the ordinances that all shops must have handicap toilets!!!!  I wonder if they have to work??  Maybe the owner could just add them but say "out of order"????   So you see the mayor and his staff have a nice re-modeled office, drawing a nice salary to do nothing as there is nothing much to do in a "ruined town" but, hey, it is fun to put the blame on someone else.  By the way, "the owner"  cannot vote in Sharpsburg elections as his residence is out of city limits.

Dog Poop

Seems there's a lot of fuss about dog poop lately. Whether it's people complaining about people not picking it up or people complaining about being ask to pick it up. When did this whole practice start? I never remember anyone picking up dog poop when I was a kid and somehow we survived, and had a lot less human mess than we do now! If I would have went around after a dog with a sack back then people would have probably thought me to be crazy. Now people just throw stuff down when they're done with it, what ever happened to that crying indian, I miss him. Submitted by NewnanGuide

Wachovia customers

I am curious as to whether the other former Wachovia customers who have become Wells Fargo customers by virtue of the unfortunate acquisition are as UNHAPPY as I am? I was so pleased with Wachovia, and Wells Fargo is so awful. Wells Fargo has zero customer service and is now charging unbelievably high fees for everything. I am fed up! I am moving my accounts to Delta Community Credit Union this week!!! Julie Buie Williams

I miss the old Newnan

Vent #2 - (this is kinda therapeutic, and theres nothing better than FREE therapy) haha ok but seriously.... back to my vent.... - I love Newnan but I miss the old Newnan. So many small businesses have went under and are continuing to go under. It's sad. Before long we are going to be some huge city, and it makes me sad. I remember years ago, when Newnan was small, and there were no BIG stores here. When you went out, most people knew each other, traffic was a breeze for the most part, it was safe, and really kinda just a nice, quiet southern place to live. Now its hectic, traffic is horrible, too many people here, too many red lights that aren't synched, it's a nightmare. I hate having to leave my house to go anywhere now. Whats something you miss about old Newnan? How it used to be here? Let's reminisce.... Valarie Hayes via Facebook

Art Walk

I enjoy things like the art walk downtown, it encourages people to visit local businesses while seeing the work of local artists. why not a day long event downtown with music & vendors, utilizing the parks and court square as venues for shows put on every couple of hours culminating with an evening concert at the auditorium, encouraging people to walk around town and see what the local business and music scene has to offer. vendors could have booths all over town selling merchandise, turn the entire town into a festival for a Saturday...

Coweta County best deal

Wish it wasn't announced that Coweta County is the best deal to live in for Georgia. Now everyone will come & we already knew it! Angie Whitlock

Georgias Immigration Law

Every state needs to have a similar law since the federal government seems unable or unwilling to do anything. Illegals are deteriorating this country. Our kids get less of an education by being forced to teach in a second language. If you want to pay for their medical, schooling their anchor babies get out your checkbook. How many people do you think are killed or injured every year by illegals with no drivers license and no business driving?.. a lot, I could list 3 I know of right now.  Enough... deport every last one of them and close the borders. If you can't follow the laws you have no business being here, we have enough criminals of our own. And why is it the ACLU only seems concerned when they can defend the rights of a criminal ? Yes they are hard workers but some of our own lazy Americans need to step up to the plate and take some of these jobs. How is it that so many Americans cannot find work but all these "immigrants" can come here and not even speak English but have no problem finding a job ? Wake up and smell the coffee America if you want to keep it. To many Americans have fought hard and made sacrifices to give us what we have for anyone to take it for granted. It's time to stop spending taxpayer money to support them and do something to fix the problem.

Overly cautious drivers

Sometimes I think overly cautious drivers are just as dangerous as the crazy drivers stop hesitating and go!

Coweta Vietnam Veterans

Thank you to All the Coweta Vietnam Veterans who served in our armed forces.So many were young but patriotic and gave up so much. They all deserve to have a United States Flag flown over the U.S. Capitol in thier honor of thier service and present to them. This can be done Coweta!! Let's get together!!

For any of you who do not salute ALL of our Coweta Veterans, please pack up and move to another county!! Thanks!!

"Graduation" Block Party in Senoia

This sounds like just another excuse for all the thugs to get together http://youtu.be/ARHHTgGpumI . Kinda a mini Freaknik in Senoia. What a joke, who would approve a permit for something like this. They had to call in Fayette County and Coweta Deputies to clear them out last year. Notice the "related videos" that are puled up when you play it.

The problem with Newnan

The problem with newnan and coweta county is the same now as it has always been. if you dont go to church with, sleep with, work with, are in business with, drink with or are married to or related to any of the "powers that be" you are treated poorly and have no voice, and god help you if you try to do anything not approved of. if you do they will rain down on you like a hurricane.

Times Herald

Why are all these people waging personal attacks against the Times-Herald ?? I think they do a pretty good job of reporting with a fair balanced viewpoint. What have they done to make these people so against them ? Anyway if you don't like it don't read it !
