Dystopian Gwinnett: The Meadows

Gwinnetians entering or leaving Lawrenceville via Grayson Highway have perhaps given a passing glance to The Meadows, a whimsically named parking lot shopping center marked by a neon sign next to the Popeyes, but few have likely considered the implications. You'll find a variety of bottom-tier enterprises here, including a defunct Big Lots, an unnamed tax accountant, a temp work agency, and just for bonus points, a check-cashing joint next door, but in what sane world could this bleak asphalt grid and collection of dying businesses be considered a meadow?

Prior Law Enforcement Experience: Judge Reinhold: Played Detective Billy Rosewood in Beverly Hills Cop 1, 2, and 3. Baron Reinhold: None Career Experience: Judge Reinhold: Hollywood actor with 100+ credits from 1977 to 2017. Baron Reinhold: 35 years in the US Navy, retired Residency: Judge Reinhold: Little Rock, Arkansas Baron Reinhold: Gwinnett County Political Views: Judge Reinhold: unclear, but has said he loves his country more than politics Baron Reinhold: self-described as a "constitutional conservative" Now you know, and knowing is half the battle. It remains to be seen whether Baron has the same everyman charm and boyish humor that endeared ...

The Editor: I've always got a smile on face here at the editor's desk, because it's impossible to frown when you live in this modern day Eden we call Gwinnett County.
