GREEN HILLS VOLUNTEER OF THE MONTH NEWS Page 3 TICKED OFF Page 8 JULY 7, 2016 VOLUME 28 NUMBER 27 Financial leaders say locally owned banks donʼt compete with each other Why the “Truth Booth” is coming to Nashville Bankers working in several of Nashville’s locally owned banks are not surprised when two Nashville financial institutions join forces. The move is almost always meant to bolster the confidence of a few grassroots investors who started the company while the bank that stays, keeping its name, is seen by the public as supporting the local economy. That’s what happened last Friday, July 1, when Pinnacle Bank purchased Avenue Bank. So far, top executives at several other banks are not expecting the effects of the acquisition to make the market for new clients any more competitive for other local bank and wealth management groups. But, for national chains riding the economic surge in Nashville by placing a branch here will feel the change. “The local...

However, the Nashville Public Library, along with a group of artists and ethnographers, is hoping Nashville residents will do just that. During a two-day art project on July 15-16, a group known as Cause Collective, is encouraging people to share their thoughts about today's issues in a "The Truth Booth," an inflatable video 4-DAY FORECAST recording booth. The unmanned booth will record a two-minute video of each person completing the statement, "The truth is ..." “Using this open-ended format, we hope to engage directly with people and create an innovative form of cross-cultural conversation and understanding,” said Ryan Alexiev, a member of Cause Collection, the group that created the installation. “Not all are usable, but it’s still far more than Thu. 7/7 Rain 20% 96ºF 76ºF New fairgrounds director selected we usually expect to get and some are just stunning.” Cause Collective is a team of artists, designers and ethnographers creating art in the public realm.

The growth is a result of a federal Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality grant that will allow the department to add Nashville Humane Association Be PET-RIOTIC this July Don't let your cat or dog's independence add to the overpopulation explosion.

The routes sometimes vary by time of day, and HELP trucks are sometimes sent off regular routes to help with traffic control at major incident scenes; but patrols are maintained on the assigned routes as much as possible. With the Nashville expansion of the HELP program will come nine additional operators and trucks, bringing the total number to 33 and three expansion routes, including I-24 east of Nashville, from Exit 57 (Harding Place) to Exit 78 (SR96) in Murfreesboro - two additional routes (additional 23 miles, and I-65 south of Nashville, from Exit 78 (Harding Place) to Exit 65 (SR-96) - one additional route (13 miles). The lime-yellow HELP trucks are equipped with a variety of tools and emergency medical equipment, to provide emergency services without charge, and HELP operators do not accept tips. To contact a HELP driver, motorists may call the local non-emergency number (615862-8600) for local law enforcement agencies to request roadway assistance or report roadway incidents.

Many people want a new relationship because they are fed up with a larger bank,” said Truxton Trust Chairman & Chief Executive Officer Thomas S. Stumb. However, he does predict small businesses and individuals currently banking with national entities will begin looking at more local options as people begin seeing the two local banks become one. “Banks think they need a branch in Nashville. The grass is always greener,” said Stumb. Friday’s announcement was one of many transitions that banks have taken this year as they seek a foothold in Nashville. However, given the entrepreneurial nature in which Pinnacle originally formed, some in the banking community are concerned what this means for bank startups. But, others, like Jim Rieniets, president and CEO of INSBANK, a Nashville-based bank and wealth management group, sees excess in regulation, not a consolidation of bank entities, as the cause for the recent disappearance of bank start-ups. “It’s an unfortunate phenomenon for commercial entities that want close access to decision makers that know the area’s market. Banks are merging, consolidating and acquiring other banks, but not creating anything new,” said Rieniets. Yet, as Rieniets states, the market has a way for correcting itself. “That’s capitalism.” Following the purchase, stocks were down .75 percent of a point when the NASDAQ closed.when the NASDAQ closed.

The Nashville Public Library is the first public library and the first southern United States location to host the Truth Booth. NPL Director Kent Oliver said, “Our goal is to represent and celebrate Nashville’s diverse people, cultures, and thoughts on ‘the truth’ as we all grapple with today’s issues. At the library we tell Nashville’s story, and the Truth Booth is a new and exciting way to contribute to that story.” Held in the lobby of the downtown Main Nashville Library, guests are encouraged to tell “their truth” between 12 and 6 p.m. on one of the two days the exhibit is in town.

Youth volunteers take to the radio When the “ON AIR” sign lights up across the room at the non-profit, Radio Free Nashville, 107.1 FM., volunteer Krystle Couch takes a deep breath and sets her music playlist in motion. For Couch and the other volunteers at Radio Free Nashville (RFN), speaking to Middle Tennessee through the radio is all part of a volunteer’s weekly routine. “I don’t see it as work. I see it as friends coming together and hanging out and talking about common interests,” Couch says about her role as a volunteer disk-jockey on Saturday afternoons. When not orchestrating music playlists, she researches news stories to help other volunteers with their radio shows. With a degree in journalism and electronic media, the station gives Couch an outlet to use her gifts and interests. RFN also provides her with an outlet to put her passions for news, music, and technology to work. “You may never realize the impact you have on people,” said Couch. Today, she hopes listeners will want to give back after hearing her show.

Thompson The End of the Streetcar Lines: Trolley Parks At the end of the Glendale and Fairfield streetcar lines, were amusement parks. The Nashville Railway and Light Company, who were the owners and operators of the city's streetcars, built a sixty-four acre amusement park and zoo at the end of the Glendale streetcar line. The park opened in 1888 to attract passengers for the railway. Railway was the correct term, because originally, the streetcars were run by steam. They became electric streetcars in 1893. The Glendale Zoo was added to the park in 1912. Glendale Park was located roughly around our present Glendale Lane and Lealand Lane areas. The present Lealand Lane heading out from town was not a street back then. It was where the streetcar tracks were located. The old Glendale streetcar would go out to the park, make a big rounding turn on the tracks, and then head back to town. Close to our present Glendale Lane off of Leland Lane is where the streetcar made its big turn. In addition to some amusements and picnic facilities at the park, a big attraction was the Glendale Park Zoo. Today, if we drive slowly around the homes on Glendale Lane, Scenic Drive, Tower Place, Dale Avenue, and the surrounding area, we will be riding around old Glendale Park. Glendale Park closed in 1932. It was the casualty of the advent of automobiles and The Great Depression. During the hurtful days of segregation, Greenwood Park was built as a “trolley park” at the end of the Fairfield streetcar line in Nashville. Greenwood Park opened in 1905 by Preston Taylor, son of slave parents, who became a successful businessman, religious leader, undertaker, philanthropist, and husband of Georgia Gordon, one of the original Fisk Jubilee singers. Reverend Taylor was the founder of Lea Avenue Christian Church. Reverend Preston Taylor was a very distinguished citizen in our area. The Preston Taylor Homes on Clifton Avenue were named for him. Taylor was born in Shreveport, Louisiana in 1849. Taylor came to Nashville in 1884 and purchased 37 acres of land near “Buttermilk Ridge” at Elm Hill Pike and Spence Lane. In 1888, Taylor established the second oldest cemetery for AfricanAmericans. The Greenwood Cemetery still sits today off of Elm Hill Pike. In 1905, Taylor extended his real estate holdings with the purchase of more than 37 acres near the corner of Spence Lane and Lebanon Pike. Taylor built his family home there as well as the famous Greenwood Park for AfricanAmerican citizens. Preston Taylor's 40-acre private Greenwood Park was located near the intersection of Elm Hill Pike and Spence Lane. The entrance to the park was on Lebanon Pike. The park owned by Reverend Preston Taylor was very elaborate with fountains, gardens, clubhouse, theatre, skating rink, roller coaster, merry-go-round, shooting gallery, a swimming pool, and a baseball diamond (home of the Greenwood Giants), among other things. W. W. Mishaw, manager of Greenwood Park, scheduled many good shows during the summer for the citizens. The Fourth of July was always a big celebration day at Greenwood Park. The site was used as the annual “Black State Fair” as well as a Boy Scout summer camp. The park maintained a track and stables for the annual AfricanAmerican State Fair. The Fair sometimes had 14,000 patrons in one day.Taylor's horse-drawn “pleasure wagons” met the electric streetcars at the GreenFairfield Street turn-around and took customers to the Lebanon Pike entrance. There was no challenge to Greenwood Park until the first city-owned park for AfricanAmericans, Hadley Park, was opened in July of 1912. Reverend Preston Taylor died in the 1930's. For a period of time, his widow attempted to keep the Greenwood Park in operation, but it was reported to be very dif- Nashville ranked 95th among 200 cities in driverʼs report Allstate Insurance Company recently released its 12th Annual Allstate America’s Best Drivers Report®, which ranks America’s 200 largest cities in terms of collision frequency. Nashville drivers rank dropped 12 spots to 95th safest city overall. The release of this year’s report coincides with the deadliest day on the road for drivers, the Fourth of July, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). “As Nashville drivers look forward to celebrating the holiday weekend, the results of our report are an important reminder to put safety first on the road,” said Tennessee agency owner, Karen Teske. “We encourage drivers in Nashville to refocus on safe-driving practices, to help reduce roadway collisions that may result in unfortunate consequences, such as tragic fatalities and potentially higher insurance costs.” For the second straight year, the report also provides insight into braking habits in more than 100 cities across the country. A hard braking event is defined as slowing down eight miles per hour or more over a one-second time interval. Allstate found a correlation between hard braking and collision frequency. Cities with higher collision frequency also recorded more hard braking events. It’s noted that Nashville drivers performed better than the national average. The U.S. Department of Transportation says that from March 2015 to February 2016 there was an increase of more than 3 percent in miles driven over the previous 12 months, leading to the largest year-toyear increase in over two decades. More than 38,000 roadway fatalities occurred last year, the highest count since 2008. Preventable human factors, like drunk, distracted or drowsy driving; speeding; and failure to use safety features contribute to 94 percent of car crashes. This year, Brownsville, Texas, came in at number one.

Feeling completely useless, I slumped down in my Lazy-boy and watched the Daytona 400. I rarely sit through a race from beginning to end. I felt so miserable; I just sat there for the whole show. But, even when you are watching others perform and listen to the discussion of certain aspects of the performance, you can not avoid hearing one primary thread—Strategy. So what is the strategy of racing? First, you must prepare yourself to be a race car driver. That may require lots of training and actual handson activity. The next step involves obtaining the right car with the best qualities of safety and performance. The strategy of racing can take two approaches: get in front and stay in front or pace the “pack” and wait for someone to make a mistake. Someone will always make a mistake. Then move into a better position, by carefully avoiding the crash. Business Strategy is similar. I know of no one who would plunge into a business, buy inventory, rent or by office or storefront, without first preparing for the venture. Many businesses fail because the fail to plan. We offer our clients a full-range of planning and forecasting using complex models of possible events. It is impossible to assure anyone that a business will be successful, but careful planning and strategy will educate the entrepreneur and afford a better than average course for success. Modern business strategy emerged as a field of study and practice in the 1960’s; prior to that time, the words "strategy" and "competition" rarely appeared in the most prominent management literature. Alfred Chandler wrote in 1962 that: "Strategy is the determination of the basic long-term goals of an enterprise, and the adoption of courses of action and the allocation of resources necessary for carrying out these goals." Michael Porter defined strategy in 1980 as the "...broad formula for how a business is going to compete, what its goals should be, and what policies will be needed to carry out those goals" and the "...combination of the ends (goals) for which the firm is striving and the means (policies) by which it is seeking to get there." Henry Mintzberg described five definitions of strategy in 1998: •Strategy as plan – a directed course of action to achieve an intended set of goals; similar to the strategic planning concept; •Strategy as pattern – a consistent pattern of past behavior, with a strategy realized over time rather than planned or intended. Where the realized pattern was different from the intent, he referred to the strategy as emergent; •Strategy as position – locating brands, products, or companies within the market, based on the conceptual framework of con- sumers or other stakeholders; a strategy determined primarily by factors outside the firm; •Strategy as ploy – a specific maneuver intended to outwit a competitor; and •Strategy as perspective – executing strategy based on a "theory of the business" or natural extension of the mindset or ideological perspective of the organization.[16] Just as in racing, mistakes will occur. There will be some choice that was not well made. The objective is to learn from mistakes made by others and avoid the perils that often cause the demise of the business. Do not jump into your business without a road map. We are here to assist you with your Strategy.

The grant supports two of Junior Achievement’s top annual programs: the Nashville Business Hall of Fame Dinner and Shark Tank. Each year, the Nashville Business Hall of Fame Dinner honors a Nashville icon who has demonstrated business excellence, courageous thinking and acting, inspired leadership, and community mindedness. Recent inductees include Amy Grant, Jack Bovender, Rob McCabe, Mark Emkes, Hal Pennington, Ron Samuels and Joe Scarlett. The Shark Tank program is a play on the hit television program of the same name, with high school students pitching business ideas to “Sharks,” represented by Phoenix Club members. Winning teams leave with cash investments to continue their projects. The program is an example of the creativity that the Phoenix Club brings to other nonprofits through its ‘venture philanthropy’ process. The Phoenix Club has eagerly supported both programs for the past few years, in recognition of Junior Achievement’s platform for preparing students for the real business world. “We are so grateful to be able to support local youth organizations in a meaningful way,” said Justin Graham, President of the Phoenix Club. “We love what Junior Achievement does for kids in Middle Tennessee and we look forward to continuing our strong partnership with their organization.” 26 YEARS YEARS Summer SALE On All In Stock Already Discounted Items HOME OF CASUAL OUTDOOR AND INDOOR FURNITURE 4201 SIDCO DRIVE | Exit at I-65 and Harding Place to Sidco Drive | 615-331-9002 | Mon - Fri: 9:00-5:30, Sat: 9:00-5:00 www.MisterTsPatioFurniture.com Page 6- The News, July 7, 2016 Green Hills explores roundabouts and infrastructure updates David Smith Staff Writer After years of gathering input from the community and planning to resolve traffic and pedestrian concerns, as well as determining the best options for an outdated high school, the major component — money —of moving forward is now in place. Next year’s capital improvements budget includes $475 million for the Metro Council districts that encompass Green Hills. The majority of those dollars will pay for construction for the new Hillsboro High School, which will be taken apart and rebuilt in phases, as well as improving the sidewalk in front of the school. Intersection configurations are confusing, dangerous to pedestrians and drivers and add to traffic congestion at Hillsboro Circle, Abbott Martin and Warfield drives, and Whole Foods and the YMCA. Possible solutions could include a round- about. “We want people to safely cross the streets in places that they can’t today,” said District 25 councilman Russ Pulley. Drivers in Green Hills could soon see Public Works employees monitoring traffic and pedestrian conditions that will be designed to create a safer environment for pedestrians. Pulley said he has received several calls from the retirement community in Green Hills telling stories of pedestrians almost being hit by a motor vehicle or knowing someone who was hit. Early this year, a moving vehicle at the crosswalk struck a resident at the Retired Teachers building. She died as a result of her injuries. “We need more education. Operator error doesn’t mean a crosswalk is designed poorly,” said Benny Word, a Public Works official, who is deeply involved in intersection planning. Improving pedestrian safety requires changes, however small, for both drivers and pedestrians. For example, a “No Right Turn” sign could return to the traffic signal on Abbott Martin. “There is a plethora of options to make the roads safer for people,” said Pulley. “These options include everything from painting new lines and adding more visible driving directions to rethinking the four way-style intersections in favor of roundabouts.” Updating or completely revising technology may be necessary to accommodate an increasing number of drivers, bicyclists, mass transit services and pedestrians along city roads, especially major corridors. Traditionally, the goal of using traffic light technology was to ensure that lights would not turn red just as cars are approaching, or have a car waiting at a red light when no crosstraffic is going through the intersection. Updates to the traffic lights in Green Hills are part of a citywide effort to update transit conditions as roads are repaved and countdowns to pedestrian signals are added, along with updates made to traffic light technology. But, given the size of the county, each district has its own unique set of issues that involve solutions far beyond well-timed light changes. Like, Green Hills. “Infrastructure along Hillsboro Road is absolutely terrible,” said Pulley, recently. However, one side of the street is pulling ahead from the other when it comes to improvements, most notably sidewalks that connect the major economic anchor points along Hillsboro Road, such as the grocery stores to the retail spots to the bus stations. The new high school is one of several developments along the east side of Hillsboro Road encouraging connectivity through new construction. The sale of Best One Tire and the subsequent summer thunder- storm that knocked down the back wall of the new building during the construction phase has given the new owners an opportunity to move the building further back from the street and create a wider sidewalk. The Southern Land Company will also be required to build a new sidewalk. Local officials highlight the potential new construction projects can have in contributing structural updates to nearby public space. However, looking toward the west side of the street, where slower redevelopment is happening, Pulley and others are hopeful that change can happen with or without new construction. “I don’t think we can wait for new development to begin before we do something,” said Pulley.

According to the Red Cross, blood donations over the past few months have resulted in 39,000 fewer donations. Donors in Donelson can donate blood on July 11, from 3 p.m. - 7 p.m. at Grace Church of the Nazarene, 2620 Pennington Bend Road, Donelson, TN 37214 Overall, blood donations have fallen short of hospital needs for the past few months, resulting in about 39,000 fewer donations than what’s needed, as well as a significant draw down of the overall Red Cross blood supply. In addition, the Independence Day holiday may have caused many regular donors to postpone donations due to vacation plans. A recent Red Cross poll revealed that more than 75 percent of donors surveyed indicated vacation plans this summer, many of them occurring the weeks before and after July 4. “Right now, blood products are being distributed to hospitals faster than donations are coming in, which is why we are making this emergency request for donations,” said Tiffany Taylor, external communications manager of the Red Cross Tennessee Valley Blood Services Region.

You have to live in an alternative universe to deny that this program is mostly a failure. God Bless the people who need it and use it to get a boost up until they can do better, but conversely it is a SIN how many work the system that us hard working citizens pay for. My guess is that it has 30% or 40% flagrant abuse, with another 30% - 40% being marginal abuse. I have witnessed countless times while in line the ridiculous purchases made by people using EBT Cards. I have even waited while they sort through all the stuff that they can manage to charge on the card, then pay for beer, cigarettes, expensive shampoo and hair products with cash or another form of credit. I have witnessed the clerk having to add things, then take them off, and then the rude purchaser push the stuff that wouldn’t qualify to the side, never bothering to worry if it would go bad sitting beside the checkout. Sure, it’s easy to form a negative opinion , and conclude that these types are drug using, lazy, We Offer The Finest in Cigars, pipes, tobaccos, humidors & cigar accessories. premium cigars CALL OUR HOTLINE: 615-298-5597 We have added an e-mail address for Ticked Off!

The EBT program began with a noble purpose, but as most government run programs, it is full of waste, and abuse now. Until the laid back, lefties decide to remove many of the unhealthy products from qualifying it will most likely continue to get worse as our taxes skyrocket so we can further enable many people to create an alternative to honest work. Let’s be honest and contact our Representatives in an attempt to curb the abuse; if we do, there will be more money available for those who truly need the program. Kroger, clean your store and lot Last month on Friday, June CIGARS FROM A. FUENTE, ASHTON, CAO, COHIBA, DAVIDOFF, MONTECRISTO, PADRON, TATUAJE, ZINO, & MANY MORE... 3rd at 11:45 am I pulled into the Kroger store in Donelson. As I pulled in I noticed all kinds of trash all over the parking lot, nothing new, I am sure we have all noticed it before and just not paid attention to it. As I turned right and went past the entrance I noticed the trash can by the door was overflowing and trash on the ground around it, I also noticed three Kroger employees sitting out on the patio furniture that is for sale smoking and having drinks, on break I guess, but I thought that really does not look good for the store. I parked over by the CVS and as I walked up to the door I noticed five more Kroger employees sitting at the picnic table they have out there by the front door smoking and talking, but what really caught my eye was the hundreds of cigarette butts all over the ground by the employee table. Now think of this, how many other stores that sell food or any business for that matter have you seen where their employee smoking area is right at the front door for every customer that goes into the business to have to walk by? None that I know of ! As I was walking into the store one employee, Johnathan (I just happened to see his name tag) and a young lady (could not see her name tag) got up from the table and threw their cigarette butts on the ground right by the front door! The two employees walked in the door right in front of me and as I entered I saw there was not one shopping cart there inside the door, of course not, they are all out all over the parking lot! I headed down to the other end of the store to get a shopping cart and the two employees that just walked in ahead of me went up to a register and started to bag groceries for a customer. Neither employee stopped to wash their hands, use hand sanitizer or anything, they just finished smoking, eating and who knows what else and now are bagging and handling your food! As I walked to the other end of the store I see trash on the floor inside the store, the W inchester Antique Mall Mon.-Sat. 9am-8:30pm Sunday 12pm-6pm An eclectic mix of quality antiques and furnishings Belle Meade Plaza 4518 Harding Rd.

At that point it crosses my mind, if the store is this dirty where the customers can see it what it is like in the back of the store where the food is kept?? If Kroger is going to let the front of the store look this bad do you really think they care what happens in the back with your food? Can you imagine what the employee restrooms look like if the store and the break area looks like this?? I turn and walked back the way I came in and decide that I would feel a whole lot better shopping someplace else! As I walk by the "Customer Service" desk I stop to tell the young lady behind the counter that "there is not one shopping cart at the entrance door" to which her reply is "What? Oh, okay." I got in my car, and headed over to Publix basically across the street. As I pulled in I notice the lot is clean, there are a few carts in the lot but they are all in the stands for them and not all over the place. As I walked toward the front door a young man who works at Publix is helping a woman out with her groceries but still says "hello" to me as he walks by, as I walk in the store another employee happens to walk by and she also says "hello" to me. Both employees were neat, clean shirts and pants and well groomed, very different than any employee I just saw in Kroger! As I am shopping three other Publix employees said "hello" and two ask "if I needed help in finding anything". As I went to check out there were more than enough opened check out lanes and all the self check out lanes were working as well. I am greeted nicely by the cashier, and ask if I found everything I was looking for, the young man bags my groceries with care, not piling everything in to one bag and then ask me if I need help out with them, I only had two bags so I politely decline his offer. Way different then about two months ago when and elderly woman checking out in front of me at Kroger ask the young man bagging if he "could help her out wit her bags" and he told her "We don't do that here!" I told her to let me get my stuff paid for and I would help her with her bags and I did. I called back to the Kroger store right after that July 7, 2016, The News- Page 9 CALL OUR HOTLINE: 615-298-5597 happened but never heard back from anyone about it. Just like then I called Kroger but the corporate office this time about what just happened on Friday as soon as I got home, yes, I called, I did not send an email. After getting passed to four different people I spoke to a woman who seemed like she cared about what I was saying but defended the smoking area in front of the store for some reason? She promised me that I would hear from someone from the Kroger store or someone from the Kroger corporate office "before the end of the business day!" Guess what, no surprise I never heard from anyone! This was not my first trip to this Publix, but this trip was the eye opener that told me I will never shop in Kroger again and made me realize just how much cleaner, better run, better staffed, and polite the employees are at Publix. I am not saying they are perfect, but at least I did not have to wade through trash, search for a cart and wonder if their employees washed their hands before bagging my groceries! Clean up your act and the rest of the store, Kroger, and you need to do it fast! Volunteers, pay attention I have a bit of information for all of the candidates and their volunteer workers. When you step onto a condominium or gated property make sure you check to see if there just happens to be a NO TRESPASSING and/or NO SOLICITING sign posted at the entrance because if there is then you are illegally on that property and are subject to arrest/prosecution. So, in closing, to the candidates before you get your little flunkie volunteers to go door to door make sure they are all literate and understand exactly what the words NO TRESPASSING and NO SOLICITING mean. They mean just that! Iʼm doing nothing wrong I was just going to chalk this up to arrogance gone ugly, but you know what, I’m ticked off. And maybe it’s the heat getting to me. I’m taking a summer sabbatical with two goals in mind. One is to write doctrine for a new ministry – Isaiah-49.org, and second, to heat condition myself for the missions work we have planned, which means I have to spend a lot of time sweating in the summer heat. I live about an hour outside of the city, but our project requires me to be in Nashville, so I found the perfect daytime spot for the ministry RV. Since I’ve been parking at the corner of 8th Ave South and Benton, let’s just say that I’ve gotten a less than friendly introduction to the neighborhood, most notably from a few that I share the corner with. They’ve done everything in their power to make me leave! From direct harassment by the property owners in that they assume I am “homeless and living on the street.” I’ve told them plainly that I am here working on a project. They have called the police, to no avail because I’m not doing anything wrong. They even called Metro Codes, also to no avail, because I’m not doing anything wrong! And the more I think about it, the more indignant I become, not for myself since I am uniquely equipped to handle the likes of them, but for the community that I serve — the less fortunate among us. I get it, you think I’m homeless, and you snicker and scowl at what you perceive to be someone’s misfortune. How dare you! How dare you have the audacity to look down your nose at… anyone! Who do you think you are? Well, I can tell you really fast who you aren’t… and God will, too. You might want to open that dusty Bible of yours, provided you own one, and see what He says He’s going to do to the haughty and the proud. And while you’re at it, you might want to ask a Christian what Jesus said about *what you do to the least of these. I refuse to believe that a true Christian would treat another human being the way you have acted towards me. So in closing, to all you haughty and proud ones, if you’re fool enough to keep looking down that nose of yours… well, all I can say is, “Good luck with that.” Drive with your dogs in the backseat This is my gripe. It is being addressed to all of you morons that drive around with your dog in your lap. Do you not realize how dangerous that can be? It is as bad as someone talking/texting on their phone. It is another form of distracted driving. If you are that insecure you need help some very serious help. If you feel your pet has to ride with you confine it to the back seat in a carrier or by a barrier to keep it from coming to the front seat. Before you go and fire off your rebuttal towards me I am a pet owner and I will go even further to say I am a responsible pet owner. My dog rides in the back seat with absolutely no access to the front.
