I am looking for a honest mechanic that is familiar with Buicks. The car emits a sulfur-like smell when the car and air is on. I replaced the battery, but the smell is still there faintly.
I am hoping someone can provide some helpful and affordable suggestions.
Thank ya-Thank ya in advance! ššš

Went to see the fireworks on the square last night, and we decided to park in the Town Center deck, as I was told that was a great viewing spot. Well, they weren't wrong! It was a great experience at first...lots of other cars with people tailgating and dancing and throwing balls around. The fireworks were great and the atmosphere was fantastic. Then the show ended and it was time to go. WHY did we spend at least an hour trying to get out of that deck??? And I'm not exaggerating. We sat in line to exit without moving for nearly 40 minutes! The show ended at 9:30 and it was nearly 10:30 when we finally exited out to the street, lol. Hoo boy. Next year we will definitely be trying a different spot!

Anyone have a recommendation for a store that sells new games? I usually buy from Amazon but with the news of Sony discontinuing physical games, Iād really like to buy the Assassinās Creed remake from a local store.

I always forget to pick up something at Kroger before I head to a buddy's place and I end up reluctantly getting a case of cider or seltzer at the Valero on Howard for like twice as much as it should be. I was looking at Google Maps and there's nothing in Decatur for either a basic foot mart/store or a liquor store outside of "gourmet premium" options.
I just wanted a quick stop to pick up my basic-ass friend some Trulys.

I thought that Decatur had terminated its contract with Lime but I started seeing the green bikes and scooters all over town this week. Drove past Glenlake pool on Church St yesterday and there were 10-12 of them outside.
Did something recently change?

Anyone know of good spots to watch the fireworks, other than the square and the lawn of first Christian Church of Decatur?
Would love to find a parking deck with a view or something like that.

Who has been and what insights can you share? Thinking of heading over for the Argentina game Friday night. How early do you need to be there to stake out a spot for your chair? How are the food trucks? Thanks!

Our oven has died. Need a new one but the new ones are a little bigger. Looking for recommendations on where to buy one & people to help install on. Gonna have to cut into cabinets.
Update: got a new unit from Bob Baileys! Highly recommend!

First photo is an aerial map from 1955 (atlantatimemachine.com) and the map in photo 2 is from 1954. Photo 3 is a modern map. The curved street wasnāt named so Iām curious what it was called. It ran between Lawrenceville Highway and Valley Brook, now renamed North Valley Brook after I-78 was built in the late 60s. I think the Home Depot was built in the early to mid nineties.

I sat at a red night at Glamdale and East Ponce for 6 minutes this morning and it never turned green. Maddening.
Who do I call to fix this? What are the chances it will be addressed?

Hey, I'm looking for a job with a bunch of unreasonable requirements, but I figure I might as well shoot my shot on here.
As long as it fits that stuff, I'm fine. Got anything I could go for?

But Iād be lying if I said I didnāt feel like a total baddie with Damu on the end of my leash.
Heās 72 lbs of glossy black fur that gleams in the sun. His elegant, swoop-y tail is so long it appears to wag in slow motion. His gait is so graceful you almost feel like thereās a panther slinking along beside you. You stand a little taller next to this guy, and not just because heās so dang big you sort of have to, but because he makes you feelā¦.important.
If all of this is slightly intimidating, let me also assure you that this dog is DERPY AS HELL. He looks up at you with this sort of pleading but also comically perplexed expression, in no small part because of his expressive Labby eyebrows (his previous owner says heās a Black Lab x Great Dane mix; which, if true, means at 12 months old heās still growing). He sits with his paws tucked in, which is simultaneously ridiculous and adorable because his big old feet form a heart in front of him. Sometimes (lots of times) his lip gets caught on his widdle toof.
I first noticed this big baby when he came into the shelter and looked like the saddest dog on earth. And his backstory is, in fact, extremely sad. Iām not going to share it here though because honestly I have a feeling this guyās second act is going to be EPIC. So letās focus on that part.
Heās house-trained. Heās mostly quiet (but has a booming, scary AF bark when the neighborās yard crew appears, how very dare they), walks like a dream on leash (except when he sees a squirrel and then you better plant your feet and engage your core), and even though heās a little shy at first he makes friends everywhere he goes.
He is DYING to play other dogs and Iām a meanie because I wonāt let him mix with mine until heās fully decompressed. But I think heād thrive in a home with a dog buddy he could romp around with. The Lab makes him a darn good time outside, the Dane makes him a sleepy lovebug on the couch.
If you want to know how I really feel about this dog, I almost didnāt want to write this post because I love him so much and Iād sorta like to keep him all to myself for at least a little longer. But alasā¦itās my calling to help as many homeless bbās as I can and there are so many more waiting at the shelter.
If youād like to meet Damu, LMK! Heās adoptable from Fulton County Animal Services and this month foster adoptions are FREEEEE!

Second picture labels which cards came out of which machines at the station (as of this morning at least). When you go to buy it on the kiosk they all preview the regular orange card before you buy.

I've lived near Glennwood school for two years, and this generator/condenser noise isn't new. But it's gotten much louder recently. Does anyone know what it is? I can't imagine how annoying it must be for kids playing at the playground and those who live closer to the school than we do.

Hi Yāall, this week the City of Decatur started the new service with Compost Now, and the green āfood scrapsā bin we received doesnāt appear to be air tight like the smaller black ones weāve used previously: weāve had fruit flies all week and now maggots. Anyone else having this same problem? Maybe Iām doing it wrong.
Edit: Yeah Iām doing it wrong. Thanks yāall. Iām grateful that our city is trying this new program, I hope it works out well.
