This Antenna Isn't Fooling Anybody

One of these things is not like the other. Casual passers-by on Duluth Highway in Lawrenceville may have missed it but the discerning eye will quickly find the imposter. We here at DGHQ were stumped concerning the true nature of this device, so we turned to The Man On The Street for his thoughts, and he rather sagaciously suggested that the mysteriously camouflaged antenna is a logical nesting site for the bird surveillance drones that we have previously reported on.

Woman Fully Committed to Painting Purchased at Buford TJ Maxx

We've all been there. Roaming the aisles of TJ Maxx, idly perusing the wares, not really planning on buying anything (disposable income? in this economy?), but secretly open to the possibility that there is something we in fact cannot live without, when like a bolt of pastel lightning, there it is!

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...

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.
