Petition: Rename Five Forks Trickum Road

It's existential crisis day here at DGHQ and we're asking all the big questions. Is there a God? What is the meaning of life? Where is the fifth fork of Five Forks Trickum? We don't claim to have all the answers, and in this case, we have none. According to various sources, Five Forks Trickum road gets part of its name from the now vanished community of Trickum, which was near Five Forks (shown above). Trickum was the site of a cavalry raid in the Civil War. Unfortunately, all local records were apparently destroyed in an 1871 fire. But what exactly are the five forks of Five Forks Trickum Road, you ask? According to the Gwinnett Historical Society, the name derives from the intersection of Five Forks Trickum Road, Oak Road, Dogwood Road, River Drive, and a fifth road whose identity has been lost to time. Even that theory proposes its own conundrums. First, this is what a road fork looks like: A fork is when the road splits. It's not an intersection of two or more roa...

Business Spotlight: Park Avenue Thrift Outlet

It's Wednesday, my dudes, and that means it's time for a trip to the Park Avenue Thrift Outlet on Clayton Street in Lawrenceville. What is Park Avenue Thrift Outlet, you ask? It is none other than the dumping ground for everything that can't be sold ... at a Park Avenue Thrift store. That's right, my dudes, if it goes unsold at any of the Gwinnett-area Park Avenue Thrift stores or doesn't meet their rigorous pre-owned merchandise standards, it winds up at the Park Avenue Thrift Outlet. Use your imagination and think of the wares that are unfit for a Park Avenue Thrift, then go lower. But why Wednesday, you ask? That, my dudes, is because the outlet uses flat rate pricing. Everything in the store is the same price! The price varies by day, for example on Saturday everything is $1.75, but on Wednesday, every item in the store is 25 CENTS! No, I am not making this up, and here's what we bought for a quarter today (edited for those with delicate sensibilities): Not...

12Stone Entrance Definitely Has 13 Stones

Thousands of commuters pass the iconic 12Stone Church entrance on Buford Drove every day, and most or all have probably never bothered to count the stones themselves, but we here at the Daily Gwinnetian pride ourselves on doing the hard work and asking the tough questions, such as, "Who was counting the rocks on landscape installation day?" and "Why is it called 12Stone and not 12 Stones?" and "Since electricity follows the path of least resistance, shouldn't lightning only strike France?"
