My mother worked there in the 50's. The only other name that comes to mind is Cato's as I believe they were in that location after the Joanly Shop closed.

In this new rendition of the lottery, bands have two months to write songs and practice before their performance date in March. If you don’t like your band, you have two options: drop out, or just get over yourself and have fun with it. It’s not unusual to start with a band of five and end up with a band of three on the night of the performance. Or two. Or in a few unfortunate cases, no band at all. It’s all about the luck of the draw and the dedication of the band members. Major T Payne performs at Rock Lotto 2009.

Arsenic is used by many of the chicken farmers much to the dislike of the consumers that are aware of the matter. I guess if that is stopped the byproduct will cease as well?

I object to the principle that says the party may sign away my right to representation of my choice, and to a party which is so spineless and irresponsible that it will not even OFFER me a choice. Republicans are bouind to win against lethargy. The Democrats are NEVER going to win the sixth District if they won’t even field a candidate to challenge the spineless party hack Goodlatte.

]]> Comment on A Year Later, The Prospect of Fracking Remains by nancy http://hburgnews.com/2011/03/21/a-year-later-the-prospect-of-fracking-remains/comment-page-1/#comment-739537 nancy Tue, 29 Nov 2011 20:21:07 +0000 http://hburgnews.com/?p=11115#comment-739537 I wish more of Rockingham's supervisors were equally concerned about the potential negative impacts on this section of the county. Water pollution can't be undone. Areas can be destroyed by these companies, and property owners left surrounded by an industrial, possibly toxic, mess. If Carrizo is allowed to drill one test well, they will just keep on going and ruin this beautiful area. How will the neighbors of these sites be compensated for the lost value of their own property? DMME needs to pull its head out of the sand,and the state legislature needs to think in terms of protecting its constituency. We elected these people, didn't we?
