Hey, a nearby car dealer has a great promotion. A free AK-47 with every truck purchase! The reason given for the promotion is Missouri's meth problem. I assume the idea is to defend yourself against drug addicts trying to steal stuff rather than arming people on meth. But hey, who cares, free AK-47!

Is there a part of the country that actually doesn't have a meth problem? You know, aside from Maine.

Cocaine still seems to be the drug of choice in NYC, rather than meth.

So what kind of gun do they give out there to help with the problem?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I think meth is still mostly a problem in the gay community in NYC, rather than being more widespread. And we don't believe in guns here!!

Hi from New Jersey!! I got in yesterday afternoon--so much for the idea of driving from Chicago in one day. I didn't leave my place until 9:40 on Sunday morning; ended up spending the night in a Super 8 hotel room east of Pittsburgh. Too many state troopers on the turnpikes in Ohio on Sunday and Pennsylvania on Monday to put the petal to the metal, so I kept the cruise control within five miles of the speed limit.

My mom and I are being lazy this morning, and might get ambitious enough to start cleaning out her garage today and tomorrow. Possibly. My niece and nephews will be home in a few days (niece is on a band trip to Europe, nephews are with their mom in CA), so I'll be able to see them by this weekend.

Brother's divorce will probably be final next week, so I'm here for him if he wants to vent. He did have a big date this weekend--good for him!

It's not so much that we hate America, it's just that we don't live there.

Rural Georgia has a meth problem (I just Googled and saw that 70% of Child Services cases now involve meth). We also got plenty of guns, y'all.

Not living in America and hating America is the same thing. No wait, I forgot we aren't the in Bush era anymore. Never mind.

I think it's hard for Meth to get hold in NYC because it's hard to be making it here, right? Meth labs kinda require isolation, thus the large problem in rural/rural adjacent areas.
