Gas Availability

The point I was trying to make is not that tourists actually pay the taxes but by contributing 60 BILLION DOLLARS to your economy enables you to pay LESS taxes!!! By the way, this is Mister Ladydebubba60 speaking and I am fuming over the gouging that is going on by Exxon, etc.,etc., etc.,etc.

Understood. However, you are not going to apologize for your blanket statement calling me lazy and incompetent? Shame on you.:nono1:

Smiling Joe, I want you to keep on smiling. I will apologize for my husband. I have never put anything out of line on here and didn't like it when he did. He is more opinionated than I am. EZ talked like we are not welcome nor wanted there. We are coming in tomorrow and do love coming there.

Dang! I thought we had a crossdresser on here. Now, where is that tangent thread?

"Can't we all just get along?"

You mean, can't we just ignore one another? I get along with many people, but I take offense to someone calling me lazy and incompetent. I hear an apology coming from Ms. ladybubba, but she says her husband typed that post. The apology from Ms ladybubba is acknowledged, but the apology is meaningless to me unless it is sincerely stated from the offender, mr ladybubba. I will be happy to ignore mr ladybubba, but get along with him, I certainly do not have to do.

I'm guessing the post from Mrs. Lady was a PM to SJ (?). I also received a nice PM from the Mrs. Lady. Friends don't let friends post ugliness using their account! I enjoy reading other opinions on this board...it's good to hear what others are thinking, but attacks on people here are not welcome. In fact, I have never blocked anyone here...but this might just be the time.

Hey, SJ, if "lazy and incompetent" describes you and the many other locals who go around for days after storms (we've had two so far this summer) taking photos of people's homes (including the places where vacationers plan to stay) at their request so that they can have some information quickly (and giving information about beach accesses and other concerns), then you've all sure set a very high bar for being "lazy and incompetent"! After Ivan, there were plenty of locals around offering free food, services, and good will to all the workers who got things up and running quickly along 30A -- and they took very good care of the tourists who came back quickly after Ivan to help support the economy, too.

I'm not a local (yet, perhaps in about 8 years), nor am I a tourist since we own property there and visit regularly. But I am most appreciative of what both tourists and locals bring to this beautiful area... most appreciative.

I am from Tennessee and I'm very nice, almost always wear shoes, and have all of my teeth. :lol:

We have indoor plumbing here in KY- I know, hard to believe. And tonight we are having pizza delivered instead of the usual Saturday night possum roast.
If we make it up late enough, we head down to the cockfights.

Not from TX are you? I can understand not having BIG HAIR, but you don't say y'all????? Do you say you guys? Help is on the way...many of us can help you!!!!

Locals,
Please know that Mister Lady does NOT speak for other Tennesseans!! But.... he is from West TN &..... well....enough said about that!!! We are typically really nice, kind folks from TN....whether in person or hiding behind a computer screen!!!
One of my favorite signs from So Walton is BE NICE OR LEAVE!!!
Love it!!!

I live in West TN and we are nice people!!! Remember, a few bad apples spoil the cart......as we have seen in the Big Easy!!!!!

Yesterday afternoon the Tom Thumb at the intersection of Hwys 98 & 331 had bags on all the pumps. I did not see any other stations during the trip.

They have gas now.

We are leaving our personal paradise in Seagrove named 'Lemondrop' and driving back to Atlanta. Anyone know about the gas situation in Montgomery, Al or going north up to Atlanta?

We have a full tank and may get close to home but may need to gas up to finish the trip and would hate to run out looking for gas.

Any shortages reported in Montgomery north to Atlanta? TIA for the info. :cool: :clap_1: :clap_1:
