i like the pop-ups associated with clicking on every story on this site.I've looked at 6 stories and i have 6 repeat pop-ups.wonder how many I would have if I didn't have the pop-up blocker on.Melissa they are doing a good job,but they aren't using scissors to cut the grass and it really isn't growing year round.They milk the clock,we've all seen it.Not to mention the "bosses" who sit in the truck,insuring quality control of the people in charge of making sure the shovel doesn't run away.You have to lean on a shovel just so to make sure it doesn't get up and run off.

I have you know that there is only 30-38 DOT workers in Beaufort Co., which about 8-10 of them have to do the mowing required for the county. So for the 30 that maintain our roads here, keep up the good work!
