Funny, just looked at a state map…. why *is* there a Bartow County? It’s tiny. They should just split it up and tack the pieces onto the surrounding counties.

Well, cover me with butter and call me a biscuit, there’s a train from Cordele to Plains…?! Are you kidding me? I used to live down there, and I can’t imagine why even the most desperate tourist would take such a trip…

Free Westchester! There’s vehicles all over the lawn again today! It looks like a tractor pull!

I think you’ve got your political platform pretty much ready to go Robbie.

Just remember to steer clear of anything related to parking or historic districts. If anyone brings those topics up, do a little jig and back out of the room.

Just to be clear – I wasn’t making fun of anybody in particluar there.

I believe the brain train could be one of the smartest moves we could make – truly uniting the two leading academic environments in this state. Not too mention, as Right Wing mentions above, so many of these folks aalong the route re already commuting into the city that it would have benefits far beyond simply connecting points A & B.
