If I had to write the resume of someone I'd want to be mayor, it'd be Andre's. Looking forward to his tenure.

Chicago has the best architecture to me. ATL keeps building the same generic mix used developments. We dont even have a signature architecture style really where you can say “thats atlanta” when you see it. This why they live filming here cause you can say jts any damn city due to the lack of identity.

IMO its

1. NY
2. Chicago
3. Miami

I gotta commend y'all up here that be driving on these roads. I'm up here on vacation for a week since yesterday. About an hour or so north of Atlanta and thank God I'm not driving cuz I feel like I'm bout to die on these mountain roads. Nothing but dark roads and sharp inclines thru out, even have to gun it up the hill just to get to our spot. shyt is nice and peaceful out here, I'm just not used to these high terrains. I know we going to the coca cola factory and the aquarium one of the days. Any good places to eat around that area? Or other spots to hit up? Looking for some authentic stuff and not no chain shyt that I can get back home. Had some decent mexican food near where we staying earlier. Gotta see if we find some good bbq. Tomorrow we hitting up Chattanooga cuz they got some caves and waterfalls out there and some other nature stuff. Gonna see if we hit up Stone Mountain and some place called Helen also another day. See all this nature and mountains that we don't have in Florida so that should all be interesting.

Mayor of Stonecrest to resign hours before facing federal fraud charges

Mayor of Stonecrest to resign hours before facing federal fraud charges


STONECREST, Ga. — The Mayor of Stonecrest announced he will resign hours before he’s set to appear in court on federal fraud charges.

Jason Lary addressed the city Tuesday, saying the resignation will be effective at 10 a.m. Wednesday. Lary is accused of stealing more than $650,000 in COVID-19 relief funds to cover his own tax liabilities and pay off the mortgage on his lake house.


During a 45-minute Zoom call, which at one point was hacked, Lary talked about his tenure as mayor of Stonecrest, which was founded in 2016.

“I ask that you all measure me by the whole story. I did the best that I could do with what we had in place,” Lary said in a Zoom call.


Federal prosecutors said Lary conducted a scheme where he asked small businesses and churches who he allocated grants to, to give 25% of the money to companies connected to himself and co-conspirators.

One of the grants was to his church, which he awarded $150,000. He then asked the church to give $50,000 back to one of the companies included in the scheme.

Lary previously pleaded not guilty to the charges, but his attorney, Dwight Thomas, indicated on Nov. 10 that he would take a plea deal.

Lary was supposed to be in office until the end of 2023.
