All the more interesting when one of the most prominent members of the community is an Orthodox Jewish synagogue. Shalom, y’all.

Bootsie Lucas writes: While on our daily walk around our intown Atlanta neighborhood, my husband and I spied a hole about the size of a bathtub in the front yard of some apartments on North Highland Avenue. “Whatcha making there?” we asked a man working in the yard. “Well, ya know, we thought maybe we needed an outdoor toilet…,” he replied.

And one from me: Delta flight attendant inviting another to join a club for flight attendants in Glynn County, Ga., where the county seat is Brunswick: “We call ourselves the Brunswick Stews.”

About the author Keith Graham: Keith Graham lives in Atlanta most of the time and on St. Simons Island on Georgia’s coast the rest.

He has worked for a series of newspapers, including The Atlanta Journal and Constitution from 1979 to 2007.
