So we were out walking the dogs and said fuck it. Turned off of the main street into a neighborhood. Pretty crappy houses, cars etc... As we are walking I see a nice house, which was strange for the area. Anyway, this guy was in the yard and says hello to us. We stop and talk to him.
He says the problem here is drugs. Which he says the city is working on and it is getting better. He also said the Wal Mart had to stop drug testing it's employees / applicants in order to have enough employees. This guy was pretty funny to talk to. Very animated and throws out one liners. Come to find out he grew up and worked 2 cities away from where I grew up.
We had to get going but he invited me over for coffee today. My wife is feel worse today so I may head over there.
