I would think using that service to plan a route ahead of time would be optimal...

Back in the late 70's, my dad ran the local branch of the Humane Society, which, at the time, was responsible for all animal control duties within the city limits of our town. During that time, our area had a big influx of Vietnamese immigrants settling in. The amount of calls that came in accusing our new immigrant neighbors of stealing and eating dogs was unreal. Dad was a special deputy tasked with investigating animal cruelty cases, so he would look into these at first, but there was never any solid evidence that it ever actually happened, and they eventually just started ignoring the calls. I have to imagine that a lot of them were probably just racially motivated attempts at harassment...

I went through the US Navy's damage control and fire-fighting training back in '81 and we trained with their oxygen breathing apparatus (OBA). I remember we'd have to pull a pin like in a grenade to light them off, and when we were done we'd have to release the canister into a barrel of water because they were like super-hazardous...

so does anyone know the story of Mary's mother? I kinda wonder what her dad had to say...

cleaning the inside of those windshields was a real challenge, and you didn't dare set anything on the dashboard because if it slid up near the windshield you wouldn't be able to reach it...

She's Generation Jones. So am I (b. 1963)

Damn, they even have her picture on the page 😆

Generation Jones is noted for coming of age after a huge swath of their older siblings in the earlier portion of the Baby Boomer population; thus, many note that there was a paucity of resources and privileges available to them that were seemingly abundant to older Boomers. Therefore, there is a certain level of bitterness and "jonesing" for the level of doting and affluence granted to older Boomers but denied to them

I have been partoking for 45 years. I'm not used to having A choice, let alone this many choices... I feel like I need to go to all of the places and try all of the things! I'd love to hear from any fellow Floridians about their favorite dispensaries etc...
