That's pretty good. I remember when I first moved here I assumed you pronounced it like Dracula, just without the R. Now that I'm moving there, I assume I ought to pronounce it right.

This is hilarious stuff. For those of us new to the area, it's especially helpful to hear how everyone is characterizing different parts of ATL. Please keep going with the slogans!

Default Story Behind the Gwinnett Water Towers

In case anyone is interested...

Gwinnett's towers of power coming down (http://www.gwinnettdailypost.com/main.asp?SectionID=17&SubSectionID=116&ArticleID=6 2520&TM=53762.33 - broken link)

I know its been mentioned before, but the water towers are coming down. For me, it's not so much that there coming down, but the timing. There taking down two towers that say Gwinnett Is Great and Success Lives Here at a time when they have a budget mess and are fixin to make big time cuts and when they have a growing illegal immigration and crime problem.

I understand why there coming down, but its almost like there saying 'we're not that great anymore' or 'some sucess lives here.'
