It could happen. A past Governor once sat in my backyard in a wooden chair with his tie thrown over his shoulder eating boiled peanuts. He liked them so well we sent all the leftovers with him for the Helicopter ride home.

I was pulled over in the M813 by DOT and told to display my tag and put my farm name on the doors so he would know who I was. Of course I had explained lack of CDL as I was a Farmer and allowed to drive hauling my own stuff without a CDL.

I e-mailed my rep to give her a heads up. I contacted Her 4 weeks ago and informed Her what we were trying to do. I am sure we can count on Her support. Also e-mailed my Senator to express my thanks and got a personal reply from Him.

In my earlier post I did not mean we were lucky the bill passed, I knew it would, I meant we were lucky someone else did not tack something onto it that would cause its downfall. If the amendment could not have been voted on separately then the outcome could have been different.

Great job everyone!! I think the unanimous vote will help a lot in the house. I personally see no reason for them to feel any different that the Senate. We still need to contact our representatives and ask for their support when the time comes. Swiss will let us know when that is. We are...

I have not been in touch with mine but I had him on board 4 weeks ago. He is very well respected and at one time was Ga. State Commander of the National Guard. He is behind us 100 percent. I am going in for hip replacement surgery in the morning so I will be out of the loop for several days.

I have been interviewed for television on farming issues before, and after cutting and editing what I said on TV did not have the meaning I intended. I think we are right to keep this simple. Its working and I am fully confident it will pass without any big shows.

This is election year so the session will be shorter than usual so they can get home and kiss more babies. But usually three months of work is tops and they go home. We still are short on funds to pay the lobbyist, so we need a few more members, hopefully Georgians, to step up and help out...

Once again I agree with Dell. Let's not rock the boat until swiss gives the go ahead. Unfortunately dollars do matter in politics and its a shame but thats the way it is. As I stated earlier my Wife ran for State Office twice, Ga State Commissioner of Agriculture, and everywhere She went to...

I just want to add to Dell's comments. My Wife ran for a State Office 2 times and I have seen a lot about how politics work. She had to hire a lobbyist to work for her when She was running. These Lobbyist are known at the capitol and can roam the Halls and get access to places a concerned...

You could not do the above because Ga would refuse to transfer title and you would be in the same boat. Get your truck home and work on it and help us get the law changed. This is going to be a short session because the members have to get home and campaign to keep their jobs so it is very...

Joe. I think the problem now is only trucks built by one particular manufacturer is not on the DMV list, so other 900 series truck are being titled. The fear is if someone at DMV takes a hard look at the law then these other trucks should not have been titled and registration could be revoked...

I am afraid papabear is correct in his above post. As President of our local antique tractor club we held elections Saturday night and had to twist arms to get someone to run for two positions being vacated by older members. We started the group in 1998 and the same 12 people that organized it...
