Yes, a beautiful sight. I live about 3 miles from there.

CDC is definitely the first Atlanta target, then the Big Chicken.

You should have seen the outrage when KFC was going to tear it down! Smashing the Big Chicken would demoralize people and cause mass confusion for drivers.

It seems like I remember that the Big Chicken's beak moves. Am I right?

It would be very interesting to see how much money these guys had left when they died and what they did with it.

Well, if Forrest Sawyer's report is to be believed, at least three of them spent their last living night spending heavily at a strip club...

Gwinnett County is not that big. Yes, it is a "suburb" county of Atlanta, but the airport is just a "spot on the side of the road". Everyone be watchful for your local airports.

There is also a Federal Reserve Bank in Atlanta, and Georgia-Pacific World Headquarters are also located in Atlanta.

"IMO, They would target CNN in Atlanta."

Thought so myself; but then OTOH. . .they need CNN; it is their mouthpiece to the world; and where they get much of their 'info' as well.

But maybe not, in any event, there is enough here for them; but maybe on the 'long list'. . .

Think I sat with three terrorist a few years ago, on a Delta flight. . .

To a safe America. . .for the good guys. . .

Heck, they may have been taking lessons so that they could pilot the Big Chicken into some other target!

I live in intown Atlanta and have driven by the CDC a few times. It's located on Clifton Rd. near Emory University. It's a very nondescript building--looks like just another Emory building. There is no fence around it.

The first time I saw it I was surprised at how ordinary it looked considering what's inside of it. I don't see how it can be adequately secured in its location--near a university and in a big city. Scary.

Yep, the beak opens and closes and the eyeballs rotate around. It's a sight to see.
