The Clairmont Heights Association blog has a note from DeKalb Commissioner Kathie Gannon alerting the public that due to the flooding of the Maloof Auditorium  “Winning the Water War Workshops on Saturday and Monday as well as the Tuesday Board of Commissioners meeting have moved.”

Guess the Maloof Building lost its own Water War today.  Why am I not surprised?

Brent sends in this surveillance cam video of a suspect who stole a laptop from a neighboring office on Decatur Square this morning around 10:20am.

If you see or recognize the guy at the beginning of this video, please contact Decatur Police immediately.

Beware you landlubbers…Irishlass reminds me of something that InDecatur posted a couple days ago.

The dreaded Captain Drew has again gathered his crew of pirate miscreants for a 1:30p landing at Twain’s tomorrow for their annual pub crawl/pillaging of poor, defenseless Decatur.

From the PiratePalooza website (who knew pirate ships had internet access?)…

The Pubcrawl

The pubcrawl features four locations this year: Twain’s (1:30pm-2:30pm), The Brick Store (2:45pm-4:00pm), the Commodore Stephen Decatur Plaza (above the MARTA station)(4:05pm-4:30pm) and Eddie’s Attic (4:35pm-6:00pm).

The PubSing (a pirate concert)

The PubSing will take place at the James Joyce Irish Pub in Avondale Estates and will begin around 6:30pm, thirty minutes after the pubcrawl has been completed. The PubSing will feature bands who play traditional sea chanteys, traditional Irish music, and a few fun extras tossed in for good measure. The Joyce has good parking, but as the crowd grows you may need to park on side streets and other nearby locations.

I have to assume he meant “good docking” and not “good parking.”

My apologies if you’ve already clicked over to this link, but these pics, linked to by Fencesitter, demand more exposure.

Apparently the flooding has been so bad up at Medlock Park, just north of the Decatur city limits, that the crawdaddies are movin’ in!

These are just a couple of the pics posted on the Druid Hills Youth Sports webpage.
