    Paragraphs work great at breaking up individual thoughts and topics. Not so much here, but elsewhere.

    Nice on the Mrs. with the PSP.

    I'm trying to think of the different places around here that I've bumped into people while OC lately. It would include the Blakeslee Wawa, the flea market in Blakeslee, Lackawanna State forest, Rita's water ice in Mt. Pocono, and several times fishing for catfish at Lake Wallenpaupack. Not a peep from anyone.

    That's a good weekend. I walked into Sheetz this afternoon and noticed a 30 something woman looking at me. I was ordering from the touchscreen and heard her comment " isn't it terrible"? The bf or husband " inaudible...against the law". Granted it might not have been me they were discussing but I think it was.

    Great encounters! I'm sure your wife was a nice inspiration to those young girls that women can (and should!) take their safety very seriously. Cool story about the PSP trooper too.

    That was me and the wife. We were complaining about how Sheetz doesn't offer Sriracha as a condiment. Should be against the law. I have to conceal carry a bottle into most restaurants too.
