The reporter is smoking. Wonder if the husband was banging her.

More likely the reporter is trashing the Commissioner and his wife in the press and the wife is fed up with it.

Also, there are a lot of women on this site (including me). When we see comments like this, it makes us think the men here think of nothing but sex. All I ask is you keep in mind your audience. If you wouldn't say it to your wife, don't post it here. Thanks.

The reporter wrote that she didn't swing her arms. The cops responded "Sounds like a cat fight."

I would have no problem wondering aloud to Mrs. L,TOWM whether the reporter was doing some investigative journalism into county finances or if the wife suspected that the reporter was a ‘special friend’ of her hubby, the Commish...

Based on the “There it is, I’m sick of it” comment, it could be either:

A reporter being aggressive or even unfair

or

The wife was being cheated on and at least one of the other county employees was pleased that the affair was going to get resolved one way or the other.

I would then talk about sports...

High capacity cup with a short barrel straw. A double whammy. Ban them both!

There really isn't enough information in the article to draw any conclusions about Mr. & Mrs. Commissioner's trip to Paris.

  1. Was it a private trip paid for by themselves?
  2. A taxpayer funded junket?
  3. Or, most likely, something in between such as an actual business trip where the Mr. agreed to downgrade from business to coach class in return for being able to take his wife along?

Uhh, we are talking about Summerville, Ga. North of Rome on the Martha Berry Highway 27. Well known for beautiful scenery and some what low SAT scores. The local football coach complained about how his teams were handicapped because there were lots of guys who had to go home to work on the farm and were not available for football practice. All those other teams were city schools and did not have farms. At any rate...beautiful countryside. Many times called God’s Country. Dropped a soda liquid on another woman’s head. Just the liquid, not the bottle. A little bit slow. Civilized and other wise polite.

No, I think the reporter was asking him if taxpayers funded their honeymoon and the wife took issue.

Ban ASSAULT SODAS!..........................

Bloomberg doen't want to take away your sodas... only your "high capacity" assault sodas.

No one needs a 20oz soda.

“When we see comments like this, it makes us think the men here think of nothing but sex.”

Not true. Sometimes we think about guns. Or food. Or beer. That comprises maybe 7% total.

At least for me anyway.

Should probably be thankful it wasn’t tar & feathers. Although soda and feathers sounds symbolic enough to work.

So, when you pour soda on someone's head is that a "yes" or a "no"? ;-)
