I have to say that the place I've seen the most spam is actually in Guam of all places. They have tons of the stuff!

Easy to import without it going bad.

I hear Spam is common on lots of Pacific Islands for that reason.

You're the one that tore up the cactus?

No. That wasn't me. I was too busy with more important things

I believe so! Also, it became sort of a status symbol. https://www.cnn.com/2022/10/01/business/spam-popularity-tiktok-sales-record/index.html

Every two years, I get a jury summons.

There is no way in hell I can do jury duty...

I don't even leave Ares with his own father at this point.

I filled out an excuse form. If they won't take it, I'll have to bring him in.

This is not good for Massachusetts:

911 system goes down statewide in Massachusetts

Locals in need of help in Boston were advised to pull fire boxes, call police stations through local numbers or approach officers on the street during the two-hour outage.

The Boston Police Department warned the public: “If you are experiencing an emergency please pull a Fire Box.”

Locals in Boston in need of help were advised to reach out to local district stations through their local phone numbers, pull fire boxes, or approach an officer as police were patrolling the city with blue lights activated “for high visibility” amid the shutdown.

It’s not clear what caused the system failure.

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu acknowledged the issue during a news conference on the Boston Celtics NBA Championship win.

“Calls are not going through. We’ve been in touch with the state and with all the relevant officials to work on getting this resolved,” Wu said. “There are multiple places on the police website you can find the phone numbers for all of the district stations, and those will be available also on social media.”

In April, law enforcement agencies across four states experienced 911 outages that left millions unable to quickly contact authorities. The outages appeared to be related to a wire that was cut while installing a light pole, and services were restored in a matter of hours.

I remember when people used to just call the Operator.

I can visualize what could happen if he loses it in a courtroom and it would be ugly on many levels.

They told me I wad doing disconnects today, but I was juggling it all today including people requesting me personally to stab them because they don't trust anyone else they saw there.today.
Who lacks confidence and makes donors nervous? Sure as hell ain't me.

We're having a heat wave,
A tropical heat wave,
The temperature's rising,
It isn't surprising,

And with that, I'm heading out to brave the heat...... TTFN

It's only 97° here. It's usually hotter this time of year, by about 10-15 degrees.

The company apparently has it worked out how many phlebotomists are needed per donors for optimal operations. Apparently the company has never known anyone like me. Yet again I was juggling more.donors than there should have been. I don't know why whoevers on sticks in getting nervous, I'm doing most the work.
Sorry, Rudy Ray Moore, apparently I'm the Human Tornado.
