Decatur Diner Receives “50” On Latest Health Inspection

A reader points out this new – as of Tuesday – health score for Decatur Diner. And while I’m generally not all that influenced by health inspection scores – I’ve mentioned here numerous times before that my kitchen would almost certainly fail the tough standards – this one is quite low.

In the interest of comparison, looking through other Decatur establishments recent health scores, I couldn’t find another restaurant that had as low or a lower score on a recent inspection.

Some Emory Prank Chickens Rescued, Fate of Others Unknown

Allison posted this video on YouTube yesterday.  Subsequently, this note was posted on the Oakhurst Message Board…

This year’s Senior prank at Emory was to unleash a flock of chickens and chicks in our library. Comical, but there are chickens that need homes or they may be put down.

Around 10 left at Dekalb Animal Control: 404-294-2996. The address is 845 Camp Rd., Decatur, 30032.

Anyone know if the other 10 were ever retrieved?
