Blue Ridge Message Boards

In my continuing efforts to learn all I can about my future home, I came across a Blue Ridge message board on the internet. Reading the posts was very educational. The following are taken verbatim from some of the posts.

If this discussion thread is any indication, I’m glad I’m happily married and will remain so in Fannin County.

 

Senor Frog:  does anyone know of an escorts in fannin county?

 

Bearfoot25:  I see one every now and then, but Ford doestn build them anymore so they are getting harder to find.

 

Renee:  i believe frog is refering to a woman escort

 

Solarpower4life:  try that girl who works at bills one stop the one who looks like a transvestite

 

Open minded:  lisa ledwell is still around & it will only cost you a six-pack or a loratab…

 

This one was entitled “Is Rusty Dead?”

 

Billy bad boy:  was told Rusty Whitenburger was found dead at home .ive asked a cpl of people and know one knows .if anyone knows for sure plse post what happened thanks

 

Tjrocky:  Rusty isnt dead just spoke to him a little while ago.Just becaus hishair style is in a coma and his clothes died in the 70s with disco doesnt mean hes dead lol .

 

Rusty eventually chimed in and informed us that he was alive and well. I’m glad because I’d like to see what he looks like. Sounds like he’s not hard to miss.

 

Based on the following post, it appears that north Georgia has a drug problem too.

 

Help:  Friens tells us she gots foods gone to food lion and the give to box fulls me wants everybody no so we can gets help to.every days 8 at nite nice store

 

CountryGeekGirl:  ...what?

 

Madame LaForte:  I think this is what happens when you mix meth and prescription drugs. Along with texting while driving.

 

LaForte Fan:  This might translate as someone at Food Lion is giving away boxes of food at 8 every night.

 

Sadly, there are also marital problems in the mountains.

 

Scott Reed:  to who it may conren
My spouse AMANDA REED of Epworth is divorsing me for aman she met here on this webpage. We been married for 8 year coming up in december. She said she never met thsi person in real life but i want to knw WHO it is. I tried getting in her login and cant to see who it is, iI'm hurt real bad. WHO RU? speak up and dont be a wimp. If you want her fine but i just wanted who you know that you have messt up a good home

 

Everyman:  If she lef u for someone on this site u have not suffered a loss but a gain

 

I think that’s a little harsh of Everyman, don’t you?

 

Finally, this post lets me know there is still wildlife in the area.

 

Joe:  Anybody heard anything about a panther found in Fannin County?

 

Boss:  Yea I think there mad about the Zimmerman verdict

 

Dempster:   Sorry but GA does not have brown bears, if by brown bears you're thinking of grizzlies. Despite their name of black bear, "black bears" can sometimes be brown, too. And yes, we have panthers. It's been a very long time since I've seen or heard one, maybe about 10-12 years. My last sighting was while camping in the rock creek area. But we have them. I've heard that one stays in Mineral Bluff, somewhere off of Douthit. No brown bears though...sorry.

 

Caz67s Husband:  We were in Blue ridge in late May this year and did see a black bear, pretty big one, around 3 in the afternoon. We were in the McDonalds parking lot just kind of looking at the theater and it walked out from behind the theater, walked about a hundred feet along the tree lone and went back into the woods. Figured it was dumpster diving. Very cool to see.

 

I find it interesting that bears are easier to spot than Rusty Whitenburger. Maybe the bear had just caught the early afternoon matinee. I wonder what was showing?
