I'm moving to Georgia

Not really, but it sure sounds inviting.


One of the most popular items on the menu at Mulligan's bar in suburban Decatur, Ga., is the ``hamdog,'' a half-pound of hamburger meat wrapped around a hotdog, which is deep-fried and served on a hoagie topped with chili, bacon and a fried egg. The bar also offers the ``Luther,'' a half-pound burger served with bacon and cheese on a Krispy Kreme donut, and, for dessert, fried Twinkies, two deep-fried Kap'n Crunch-coated Twinkies topped with chocolate and cherry sauce.

You may not have to worry about moving to Georgia (Gods country BTW!) but you will have to worry about living to a ripe old age if you start eating that stuff!

Next time you visit family in Georgia, I would like a full report, and pictures of the hamdog with "captain crunch coated twinkies deep fried with chocolate and cherry sauce"

I might have to drive the family to Orlando, with a suspicios journey through Decatur.

Death by Twinkie is still death. Go to the Varsity instead...right across from Georgia Tech on I-75. It's an institution...even Nipsy Russell worked there as a kid. I think they're still open. Don't subject yourself to a heart attack before you get to Macon!

The Varsity = Heaven...Well, at least it would if it were in Tuscaloosa!

I wouldn't be caught dead in Decatur! No offense to anyone living in Decatur, but if it's inside the 285 beltway you might as well be inside the DMZ. I'll stay south of Macon, thank ya very much. Simp

I lived in Athens for 6 months. Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, it was great, for the cheap food, cheap beer, cheap golf, cheap housing (my own 2br/2ba apt for $485/mo?!??!) and plentiful young ladies ( I was 23).

The rest of the time it was AWFUL, all fast food restaurants and bars. To go to a decent store, drive 45 min. To go to the airport, drive 2 hours. To go ANYWHERE other than Target, Wal*Mart, and _________ drivethrough, drive 45 min.

Blech.

I never loved CT so much as when I lived in GA.

I spent some time at my sister's home when she lived in Peach Tree City...beautiful country. But those Georgia fireants would run Godzilla back to Japan. Some mean little buggers.

Know what you mean...Tuesday, I was spreading some fire ant bait/poison on a hill in my front yard...standing a couple of feet to one side...and all at once, I felt them on my sandaled feet...I ran to the garden hose and washed off both feet...those little buggers are mean...it took the full force of the hose nosel to get them off my feet... I dug up some once, and it was a seething mass of ticked-off ants. I used a half can of Raid and must have slaughtered a hundred thousand of 'em. Man, I hate those little B******S. (self censored).
