I'll do my best to sneak out of work to be there for a couple of hours.....it all depends on what crises pop up.

3. Road show indeed

Shrub is “obviously making an effort to talk to real people and open a discussion,” according to a quote by the GA GOP spokeswoman Clelia Davis to 11Alive.com. I wonder which script she was reading. I wish I could protest, but I'll be stuck in my cube.

4. VERY Important

He is also going to Wesley Woods Geriatric Center. Anyone traveling around downtown, midtown, Emory will be affected. Clifton road was crawling with law enforcement an hour and a half ago when I dropped my daughter at school.

I suspect Clifton and Briarcliff will get shut down.

The $hithead has landed.

5. Nope, I heard on WSB Radio this morning

that he won't be going to Wesley Woods.
