Elliott Brack’s Perspective
BRACK: Even when searching for a dog, be careful; Scams abound
By Elliott Brack | Somehow, I think was on the way to getting scammed. Over all things, a dog. Ever since our 16-year-old rescue dog, Hercules, died about three months ago, we’ve been thinking about getting another dog. We’ve always had dogs, four main ones, living with us for 9, 15, 18 and (for Herk) 16 years.
BRACK: Dacula, Harbins lose cherished member in Winford Lindsay
By Elliott Brack | Dacula and the Harbins community lost a cherished member when Winford Vernon Lindsay Sr. died on November 1. He lived a half a year beyond age 100. Winford was a giant of a gentleman, the son of a farming family, and Bible scholar. He may have been the last surviving Gwinnett County resident who had been a member of the Civilian Conservation Corps, prior to enlisting in the U.S. Army Air Corps in 1940.
BRACK: Random thoughts about the negative transit vote and election results
By Elliott Brack | Random thoughts concerning the General Election are on our mind today.
Gwinnett voters in 2020 easily approved the continuation of a one cent sales tax to help fund school infrastructure (76.6 percent), yet were almost equally divided in turning down a one cent sales tax for improved transit. The difference was 1,013 votes out of the 398,000 votes cast! Talk about a closely-split 50.1 percent difference!
