Truck is loaded up, headed out camping for a few days. Nothing crazy, just a few nights in the woods.
Luckily fire season is really mild in Oregon this year so we can actually have campfires, unlike the last few years.
I†ve got a good friend who is a single mom and has a young son who has never been camping and really wants to go. The kid is on the spectrum so it should make things pretty interesting. Bought some bells and lots of glow sticks to tie onto him, hopefully they won†t be necessary

The accent is mostly along the coast. You don't really hear it much in the mountains. You do encounter a few people with it of course, along with occasional NY accents and French Canadienne accents.

Minor smoking of it isn't the problem, but there are more heavy duty smokers who smoke 10 times more than people used to smoke it. And its more potent.

I tend to agree with this. Though I'm sure there's some correlation with weed legalization too, but I'm betting the Covid candy was the main driver It was definitely the main driver, that and our gen Z generation is largely as useless as a paperweight

What's with sports talking heads and jabber jocks constantly saying "At the end of the day..." at the start of their sentence? Who started that? I'm trying to watch the Raiders in Canton, and the announcers start every fifth sentence with that phrase. But it's not just them, they all do it. Wtf?

Iâ€ve got a tiny bit of service, Iâ€m disappointed Zigbeenews.com cleaned things up. The world needs to know what a retarded scumbag Pitch really is. I donâ€t care if people think I use awful language.
The weather is tremendous. The North Umpqua river is beautiful. The beer is cold. The beef is about to be on the grill.
Suck start a shotgun Pitch. You are lower than whale sh*t

You could always combine all the threads that P1tch starts into one combined P1tch mega-thread; at least until he averages less than three new threads per day, or some such.
