    I feel the same way. Growing up in Tallahassee as a Braves fan Atlanta was always where I wanted to end up after college. My dad's buddy worked for the braves so we'd come up for a long weekend every summer and I always loved it. 11 years later and outside of moving back to Florida to be near family there's nowhere else I'd rather be

    Problem with that negativity is Dems will invest In infrastructure once in power

    And the population is growing

    1million new people in the metro areas and a 1 percent decline in rural areas

    We need to invest in infrastructure no matter what alternate reality austerity republicans live in

    Gonna be interesting in the next 5-10 years if WFH remains a common thing and how the need for massive office buildings and living in a major city might be affected.

    Very true

    And why I want more broadband investment along middle GA and regional cities

    We've got a full floor in the King Building and now predominantly remote moving forward. In year 2 of a 7 year lease, expect they sublet at least half.

    Hey y'all - wife and I are going away for thanksgiving w/ my sister and bro-in-law for a small family Thanksgiving gathering at the beach. He's from KY and bringing some pretty nice bourbons...what are some good local beers that I should load up on for us to drink at the beach/pool during the day? Looking for some less traditional recommendations than the Tropicailia/Hopsicutioner/420's of the world...

    For lagers I really enjoy Arches Southside (more traditional) and Mexican Empire (darker Vienna style)

    Halfway Crooks is putting out killer Euro-style pilsners, lagers, etc. as well. Their IPAs are legit too.

    I have always liked the crew behind Monday Night but always thought the beer itself was average. Glad to hear they are doing good things, I haven't had any of their stuff in years I'll grab some when home for the Holidays.

    this is the ticket right now. cant go wrong with their new brown ale, breakfast after meridiem, either. torched hop has some nice ipas that they have canned. the juice willis series at wrecking bar is fantastic. anything three taverns puts out is legit.

    Hey gents - have had a mother cat and a baby in my warehouse for last few weeks...finally put a trap out last night and caught the mother. Very tame, let's me get close to her (very scared at the moment, she'll probably be sitting my lap in 24 hours) and a cutie! Putting a trap out for the baby tonight.

    Going to keep them in my office for a day or two until I can find a permanent solution, anyone know someone in ATL looking for a cat or two? Both cute, black with some white spots and white feet. Picture of the mother below:

    Last few times I’ve been to Miller Union it’s been as good as anything I’ve had in the city. La Grotta is a kick ass old school Italian joint with wise guy waiters and an absurd wine list. You can also splurge and get truffles shaved on your meal.

    Find a restaurant that you like that is also struggling badly. Go order many drinks, apps, and entrees and tip like you're dying.

    The food will be good and he'll respect you for trying to help a struggling business.



    Or go to Le Colonia

    Nah thats why we wanted to try it out bc we had the dog with us, but they either had it filled up or reserved out, so we got seated in the main entryway.

    Will be a great all-around spot if we ever get on the other side of this pandemic.

    Yeah, the breezeway is huge and nicely spaced out. We pretty much always do mussels, fries, and beer but everything on the menu is solid.
