Apartment Complex Namer Not Even Trying Anymore

Developer: We're building some residences and we need a name for the complex. Apartment Complex Namer: Ok, where are these residences? Developer: On McGinnis Ferry.

Happy Birthday, Peachtree Corners!

Today we say happy birthday to Gwinnett's largest and newest city, home of the Harlem Globetrotters , which was incorporated on this date way back in 2012. Before 2020 was the apocalypse, 2012 was supposed to be the year it all ended. Remember the Mayan calendar and the John Cusack disaster film?

As that most famous Globetrotter of all, Wilt Chamberlain, said, "It is said that good things come to those who wait. I believe that good things come to those who work," so we're going to keep working on it.
