Sucessful raid today by "Walton County Code Enforcment"

Or better yet. Eliminate some of the silly laws, cutting down on the need, lowering the budget, reducing taxes, causing more economic development, as proven by John F. Kennedy and Ronald Reagan.

But then that would not be pretty.

I'm just glad to see them do some work. Need to disband the whole Code Enforcement Dept. Based on those photos looks like about 1 hours work.

Totally worthless expenditure of public dollars.

Now now. They do have this one guy that patrols the bike paths and makes sure the signs are straight and the sprinklers do not get anyone wet. That has to be worth something.

Today Walton County Code Enforcement officers were out in force protecting our wonderful county road 30-A. After enduring the heat for several hours the cracked team of "Code Enforcement" successfully removed many damaging signs that harm our eyes. The team removed signs from homes, business, restaurants any establishment that is trying to hang on in this tough economy. The dedicated men and women from "Code Enforcement" braved the heat to protect ourselves regardless of the expense of a local trying to make a living. There was many a cheer at the "Code Enforcement" trailer for another "Street sign sweep" well done. Here are a pictures of the criminals. Maybe we should have a show like cops but called "Code Enforcement." Bobby J. you are the balloon coordinator any calls about rouge balloons? :yikes

we would definitely not have this problem if the county would allow monument signage in shopping areas along 30a. i do wish someone would grab the 15 - 20 signs for "isle of view realty" sitting on a property for rent across from butler elementary. how about one sign???????

Yep, I agree. They could've raided the beach and picked up lots of stuff that people seem to think they have a right to leave there. :roll:

Seems no one is happy about anything code enforcement does...laws ignored...folks unhappy, laws enforced...folks unhappy...a lot of those signs look like "left overs" from garage sales, open houses, etc...similar to the junk folks leave on our beaches....think of the money and the time saved by our county... if folks would just pick up after themselves.

It's the new symbol for the Republican Party reflecting their current situation of distress!

An avatar is used to identify yourself online. Folks often use it to make a statement. I am inquiring as to how you are identifying yourself and/or what statement you are making via your new avatar.

So...
Let's hear it.

P.S. I ask many people what's in their tar. So hopefully you don't feel singled out or put on the spot...

PM the guy. Jeez......

They need to send that guy to the home just West of the Tom Thumb on 30-A on the West End. I rode my bike that way last weekend and two sprinklers hit me at chest level shooting water over the sidewalk. That wakes you up!

I feel much safer now that those signs are gone!

PM the guy. Jeez......

I guess that you could have also PM'd Geo

Not only that, but also abbreviating the American Flag which has thirteen stripes and 50 stars. If you look closely at the image wearing 3D glasses, you can see it says vote for Jesus. I didn't know that Jesus was running.

avatar-- (origin) In English, the word has come to mean "an embodiment, a bodily manifestation of the Divine." However, the Sanskrit word Avatara means "incarnation." The term is used primarily in [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinduism"]Hindu[/ame] texts. For example, [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krishna"]Krishna[/ame] is the eighth avatar (incarnation) of [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vishnu"]Vishnu[/ame] the Preserver, whom many Hindus worship as God. The [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avatar"]Dasavatara[/ame] are ten particular "great" incarnations of [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vishnu"]Vishnu[/ame].

Being far from being pleased with the Republican party, I at least hold hope they will come to their senses and come forth with some reasonable solutions to many of our problems. If not, maybe we need a new, independent party. I hold absolutely no hope for the Democrat party, whatsoever. The sign of distress is appilicable to a lot more than either political party. If you look around a little, you'll see what I mean and if you don't understand now, you soon will if we continue our present course.

Maybe you also have a quote for when socialism comes to America?

AA: I feel your pain. BTW...I'm more of a libertarian than either a Far Left/Right Repubocrat!

But there again, I prefer animals over humans......they are far more civilized

You didn't ask me about mine! What of it? ie so what?

I've never heard of Sinclair Lewis, and could care less. a lot of people say a lot of things. That's called freedom of speech. Doesn't mean anything.

I Googled this for us--let's all learn together:

Sinclair Lewis, the first American to win the Nobel Prize for Literature, was born in Sauk Centre, Minnesota, in 1885. Although he was proud of his Midwestern roots, he traveled widely and was interested in many different aspects of American society, from business and medicine to religion and small town life. His concern with issues involving women, race, and the powerless in society make his work still vital and pertinent today. As Sheldon Norman Grebstein wrote in his work Sinclair Lewis, Lewis "was the conscience of his generation and he could well serve as the conscience of our own. His analysis of the America of the 1920s holds true for the America of today. His prophecies have become our truths and his fears our most crucial problems." Sinclair Lewis was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize for Main Street and Babbitt, and won the award for Arrowsmith (although he turned it down). He was a member of the National Institute of Arts and Letters and the American Academy of Arts and Letters. He died in Rome in 1951.

Still, a statement of such nonsense doesn't warrant my respect.

Still, a statment of such nonsense just warrent my respect.

But it makes learning fun. I thought Sinclair Lewis was Shari Lewis' husband--ya know, the one with the puppet Lambchop?
