DECATUR HOBBY HOUSE / SPEEDWAY

This building use to be The Dekalb Theatre.
When this was taken it was a hobby house selling models of all kinds and it also had slot car tracks for racing.
The front side walk windows had electric trains set up.
It was a neat place I spent alot of time there.
The building to the left of The Hobby House used to be F.W. WOOLWORTH and on the right was The Candler Hotel.
Location: E. Ponce de Leon Ave.

What are your memories of this great place.

This was a few doors down from "The Paper Chase" comics&bookstore, where I used to stay all day, all summer when I was a kid. I confess now that I stole a D&D figurine from this Hobby Store once.

Great photo :)

From 1965 to about 1968 I spend hours and hours here. We lived on Glenn Circle about a mile or two to the east and this magnificent place was within easy walking distance. I spend much of my free time with my Dad and brother building things to run at the track here. We used to take static plastic models and adapt them for slot car chassis. I believe it was on Wednesday nights when they had the official race night. We would occasionally participate, but there were always the electrical geniuses who knew how to "rewind" the slot cars' motors and those guys always won.

Wordsmith's Books Announce they are Closing

One Last Time
By Zachary Steele


I've pondered how to start this, but this is the best I can come up with. There is no great way to begin the end of a dream, and there is no gentle way to state that finality is upon you. That said, I regret to announce that, as of Monday, March 2nd, 2009, Wordsmiths Books will close its doors for good. I don't do this willingly, and I would love to say that there were avenues of exploration yet to wander, possibilities that could avert this outcome, but that would be untruthful. I have explored every possibility open to me, but the sheer magnitude of the decline in sales alone (on the heels of our efforts to right the boat) from our current economic downturn has long since evaporated the fumes. Frankly put, there's nothing left to make the engine go, and sitting on the side of the road with a thumb out doesn't seem to earn you much grace as a business.

It had been my hope to leave more of a gap between the announcement and the closing, or to perhaps discuss it with everyone as the date approached, but that possibility just was not open to me. For all of the things I may regret or wish to offer an apology for, that would be the most prominent. So, to all of our loyal customers, to those who have followed our journey, to those who offered their support when it was needed the most, I apologize that I could not fulfill a more lasting obligation to you. I apologize for falling short in this endeavor. Unfortunately, we are in a period in which it is more difficult to produce the services you would like to offer without losing your shirt, and far more challenging to meet the demands on a daily basis. Not impossible, but difficult nonetheless.

For 2 years, Wordsmiths Books has been recognized for its events, for its atmosphere, and for its venture into a new media that stretches well beyond traditional marketing methods. From a purely idealistic point of view, we achieved what we had hoped to achieve. We left our mark. Hopefully, it will be one that is remembered fondly. I'm not going to revisit the authors or musicians we staged, nor am I going to tell you tales of my favorite moments, or list our accolades, because that would just be indulgence on my part, and I won't presume to force that on you. If you wish to hear me ramble on, or if you wish to pass along your thoughts, you can still reach me via email. I'll do my best to respond to you in a timely manner, and answer any questions that you might have.

Before signing off, I would like to wish my fellow independents well in their journey. To Little Shop of Stories, Eagle Eye, Bound to Be Read, The Blue Elephant, Outwrite Books, Charis, and Acapella, I wish you good luck on your journey. May your days be filled with profit and your businesses thrive for many years to come. To our customers, I say thank you for your support, and thank you for allowing me this opportunity to serve you.

Time to turn the page.

Remembering My Three Sons

MY THREE SONS

U.S. Domestic Comedy

Created by Don Fedderson and Leave it to Beaver alumnus George Tibbles, My Three Sons was one of television's longest running and most influential domestic comedies. The program was conceived originally as a television vehicle for Fred MacMurray, (who owned 50% of the program), when Fedderson was approached by Chevrolet to develop a program that was "representative of America." During its twelve year run, the program averaged a respectable, but not spectacular 22.2 rating and a 35% share, and underwent enormous narrative and character changes. It is most significant for its development of a star-friendly shooting schedule and for its redefinition of the composition of the television family.

Before he agreed to his contract, Fred MacMurray queried veteran television performer, Robert Young, about Young's workload. Upon Young's complaint about television's time-consuming schedule, MacMurray insisted on a unique shooting plan that was to be copied by other top actors and christened "the MacMurray Method." This so-called "writer's nightmare" stipulated that all of MacMurray's scenes were to be shot in 65 non-consecutive days. All other actors had to complete their fill-in shots while MacMurray was on vacation. Practically speaking, this meant the series had to stockpile at least half a season's scripts before the season ever began so that MacMurray's role could be shot during his limited work days. The repercussions of this schedule were enormous. Guest-stars often had to return nine months later to finish filming an episode; MacMurray's co-stars had their hair cut weekly so as to avoid any continuity discrepancies (MacMurray wore a toupee); and any unforeseen event (a sudden growth spurt, a guest-star's death) could cause catastrophe. Often times, the producers were forced to film MacMurray in scriptless episodes, and then construct a script around his very generalized monologues. Frequently, to avoid complication, the writers simply placed his character "out of town," so that there are an inordinate number of episodes in which Steve Douglas communicates to his family only by telephone. Despite the hardship on writers, directors and co-stars, the MacMurray method was adapted by a number of film stars (Jimmy Stewart, Henry Fonda) as a conditional requirement for their work in a television series.

Welcome to Decatur's Own Rose Squared

Considered the 'best little frame shop in town,' last summer JD Isaacs expanded to a new downtown Decatur location on the Old Courthouse Square. The most exciting news though, is that it has given him the space for a gallery to feature prominent and upcoming artists and a classroom to teach painting in watercolor and drawing. It also allows him the opportunity to show his own paintings and drawings. I hope everyone goes by to say hello and look around.

Congrats on the three large commissioned paintings for Parkers on Ponce, one of which will be hung tomorrow morning.
JD Isaacs has a new website , check it out.

Great job JD on the new website

Pink flamingos to help fight crime

mountdesertislander.com photo mark good
Pink flamingos an anti-crime symbol in East Atlanta

By BEN SMITH

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Wednesday, February 18, 2009

There’s campaign afoot in East Atlanta to turn the pink flamingo from an icon of tackiness into a crime-fighting symbol

“You always hear about neighborhood associations coming down on ugly pink flamingos,” said Jason Hatcher. “We thought it would be a clever form of civil disobedience to show that our concerns are being ignored.”
Hatcher, an art director for a local weekly newspaper, and Johnny Castellic (a.k.a. “Johnny Hollywood”) have launched a campaign to raise public awareness of what they insist is a growing crime problem in their area.

They say that problem is being ignored by Atlanta Mayor Shirley Franklin and Atlanta Police Chief Richard Pennington.

“People are practically yelling from the rooftops,” Hatcher said. “And every time we yell they parade out this revolving dog and pony to say that overall crime is down in the city of Atlanta.”

Pennington has said police data shows that while property crimes in some of Atlanta’s gentrified communities have increased, incidents of violent crime are down.

“The community groups work closely together,” said Pennington during a recent interview. “When they hear about one crime, they e-mail their neighbors and then you get a barrage of e-mails. I think they just respond to what they hear. And a lot of times, perception to them is reality.”

The pink plastic birds have shown up in front of restaurants along Flat Shoals Road and Glenwood Avenue and on the front lawns of nearby homes.

Update on Decatur High School Construction

DAVID ELLINGTON at Twains Tonight

Wed, February 18, 8:00pm – 10:30pm
DAVID ELLINGTON - After studying at the Berklee College of Music in Boston from 1980 - 1982, David Ellington moved to New Orleans in 1983 and quickly became a player in its extraordinary music scene. In 1988 he began a three-year stint as pianist/organist for legendary New Orleans guitarist, Walter “Wolfman” Washington, traveling the world and recording for Rounder Records. This led to another three years of study at the University of New Orleans under the tutelage of Ellis Marsalis, Steve Masakowski, Ed Petersen, and Harold Battiste, where his composition, “Armando” won the prestigious composer’s award in UNO’s “Svenson Composition Competition” in 1996. David’s work as a versatile sideman, versed in Funk, Jazz, R&B, and Latin styles, led to the formation of his own group “Chevere” and the release of “Baila Mi Ritmo,” a CD of Ellington originals. Chevere made its New Orleans Jazz and Heritage debut in 2000 and has been a standout at the Festival ever since, returning each year to excellent revues. Hurricane Katrina forced Ellington to abandon a busy musical career in New Orleans as bandleader, valued sideman, and church music director. David landed in Atlanta, near his parents and quickly became a first-call pianist/organist, in demand for many of Atlanta’s best groups and performers. He continues to develop his solid reputation in Atlanta, and has gained “roster” status with “Young Audiences of Atlanta - Woodfuff Arts Center.” David is leader of 'The David Ellington Organ Trio' as well as 'Trio Fino' here in Atlanta and sideman with several acts including singers Tommy Dean and Karin Williams and Atlanta's mainstay 8-piece band, 'The League of Decency'.

Aaron Rents reports $21 million fourth-quarter profit

Aaron Rents reports $21 million fourth-quarter profit

By KELLY YAMANOUCHI

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Tuesday, February 17, 2009

Atlanta-based Aaron Rents Inc., a rent-to-own furniture chain, reported a $21.1 million profit for the fourth quarter, or 39 cents per diluted share, up from $15.5 million, or 28 cents per share, a year earlier.

It had $404.9 million in revenues, up 11 percent from the year-ago quarter. For the full year, Aaron Rents had $90.2 million in profit, or $1.66 per share, up from $80.3 million, or $1.46, in 2007.

Aaron Rents chief executive Robert Loudermilk said the company expects its business to continue to be strong, as “more people see the availability of their credit diminish or disappear.”

The company updated its guidance, saying it now expects to earn $1.72 to $1.87 per diluted share in 2009, up two cents from its previous guidance. It also expects first quarter earnings of 49 cents to 54 cents per diluted share, excluding store or asset sales.

Facebook’s terms-of-service change has users abuzz

By Wailin Wong

Chicago Tribune

Monday, February 16, 2009

Facebook knows your age, alma mater and favorite band. It’s seen your spring break photos and read the messages you sent to your friend. So, can it do anything it wants with that content?

Legally, almost. But in practice, the rules that govern Facebook’s relationship with its users are abstract and subject to constant negotiation.

The blogosphere was abuzz Monday after a popular consumer affairs blog pointed out changes to Facebook’s terms of use that the social networking Web site quietly made earlier this month. The issue of who controls the data posted to the site is a massive gray area that continues to evolve as Internet companies and consumers shape social norms of how to define trust in the digital age and share their lives through new technology.

Under both the old and new rules, members grant Facebook a license to use content “on or in connection with the Facebook Service or the promotion thereof.” But the revised agreement eliminates language saying this license would “automatically expire” if content were removed from the site.

“They’re saying, ‘Once data gets in our database, we can do whatever we want with it,’” said Eric Goldman, associate professor and director of the High Tech Law Institute at the Santa Clara University School of Law.

Suzie White, Facebook’s corporate counsel for commercial transactions, announced on the company’s official blog on Feb. 4 that the site was updating its terms of use. But Facebook didn’t send out a mass notification asking users to sign off on the changes. And White’s brief post, which didn’t call attention to the content license, went unnoticed.

Then, on Sunday, the Consumerist blog, which is owned by the publisher of Consumer Reports, warned readers of the changes by describing the revised policy as, “We Can Do Anything We Want With Your Content. Forever.”

Looking inside were a dozen or so old and/or classic cars.
A vintage Atlanta Police Car, Plymouth-Prowler,and what looks like a (Delorean -Back to the Future) are just a few of what I saw.
I am wondering what brand ice cream it will be ? Could it be Jakes Ice Cream. I don't know for sure but I think that's a good guess.
I guess we will have to wait and see.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 14th - VALENTINE'S DAY!
JOHN GORKA / PETER BRADLEY ADAMS
Show time: 8:00 pm / Doors open: 6:30 pm
Individual tickets: $20 / Tables of 4: $100

For 2 decades JOHN GORKA has been at the forefront of the new-folk movement - perhaps the most respected/admirer performing songwriter by his peers. Simply amazing songs, hummable melodies with serious themes, delivered with a warm/mellow baritone and an engaging/intimate performing style. He's touring in support of his latest CD entitled "Writing In The Margins", which features harmony vocals by Nanci Griffith.




PETER BRADLEY ADAMS, formerly of the duo eastmountainsouth, has the kind of songs that you can listen to over and over. He is a classically trained pianist and has a hushed, mellow voice. His music has been featured in over 30 films and TV shows. His debut solo CD, "Gather Up," received critical acclaim, and he is here tonight performing songs from his second solo release, "leavetaking."

Steak ‘n Shakes promotion in Atlanta offers 1934 price

15-cent Steakburger on sale for 3 hours Friday
Steak ‘n Shakes promotion in Atlanta offers 1934 price

By JOE GUY COLLIER

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution


Atlanta-area Steak ‘n Shakes are rolling back the clock on prices to celebrate the chain’s 75th anniversary and give customers a break in a tough economy.

On Friday, between 8 a.m. and 11 a.m., Atlanta-area outlets will sell the single Steakburger for 15 cents, the cost in 1934. After the initial offer, the single Steakburgers will be 75 cents all day, every day through March 29.

Also on Friday, the first 75 guests at each of the 20 Atlanta-area locations also will get a VIP card providing them a free combo meal each month for a year.

While a nice gesture by Steak ‘n Shake, the offer likely won’t impress diehard Chick-fil-A fans. For every new store it opens, Atlanta-based Chick-fil-A provides the first 100 guests enough coupons to get a free meal each week for a year.
