The trolley between Uptown and Novant Hospital sure is a sink hole.

Was Charlotte the city where excessive bond was required for a Tea Party demonstration whereas nothing was required for Occupy or am I confusing it with a other town?

I hope so. Will there be a special election if Foxx goes Fed? I’m in Union County.

Could be. They sure put up with the Occupy group for quite a while. They were using the sewer drains as toilets in their encampment.

Ditto. I used to visit some weekends but haven’t in years and don’t miss it.

We go to church in Mint Hill and to the library in Matthews, but don’t do much in Charlotte itself. It’s easier to get to Monroe!

No $h!t! You would think this country is as Black as most African nations when you look at the FUBO Admin.

My aunt and uncle had some nice family farmland on McKee road until they sold and moved away. It was pretty out there.

The only thing that will get me into Charlotte proper is a paying photo/video or IT gig. What few there were have apparently dried up completely. Pretty much the same in other surrounding areas around Columbia.

I know people in the new subdivisions along McKee Road, and eventually you get to the Greek Orthodox church. A pretty nice area.
