Support your local businesses

Beautiful day out today for those of us who work outdoors. Worked downtown. Visited with the owner of the T.V /stereo store. Yes, it was his store that had a 55 inch T.V stolen. Just shattered the glass on the door and out went the T.V.
Do you think that somebody might have seen 2 guys hauling out a 55 inch T.V at wee hours of the morning and found it unusual? He said local police treating it like his bike was stolen.
Joe's bar was busy this morning, god it's always so dark in there.
Take off your hat and sun glasses before entering the bank.
Went in to Concrete store. "What the hell you want" was first thing I hear. "Just gonna read your meters" I said. "Well don't bother they shut um off." "Oh sorry" I said, "gotta read them anyway" and off I went into the dark back room and into the basement. This dude is just sitting in his business in the dark, with no heat. Just sitting there.
Sure enough, Red tagged the electric meter (means shut off due to non payment). Damn, need new flashlight batteries......maybe I should remove my sunglasses.
Hardware store going out of business. Sorry, Menards has it all.
Standin in front of the Probation office, 50 year old guy that had it all, busted for drugs, second time. His lawyer must have bonded out again. Looked like he was waiting for a ride. He should be in prison. "Hey, Where's your BMW?...Laughing.."Oh yeah, that's right, the Fed's took it!"
