They Can’t Have Gone Far

Sarnia police ask for help in locating owners of missing walkers Yes, that was a stupid joke, but I couldn’t resist making it. In all seriousness, it appears they’ve been stolen. I feel comfortable saying this because while there are many aspects of this world that I do not understand, I do know that generally …

Never Get High While In Charge Of The Supply

There’s never a good time to fall asleep at a red light, but doing so in the middle of the afternoon while you’re driving around with a veritable pharmacy worth of illegal substances in your car is especially bad.
