It is not raining or snowing right now. It did start doing what you see on the left at about 8:30 PM. But now at 2 AM there is just a wet sidewalk and a little snow on top of the grass and cars.
The photo to the left was taken at 8:30 PM just as the snow started.
It looks like all we get today is some light rain and then a low of 40 degrees and a high of 56 degrees.
So I can get out and pick up some Coke. I would like to get down to Subway and get a couple of their $5.00 subs. This month their standard 12 inch subs are $5.00 of course that was the old price anyway.
The Subways open at 7 AM and I like that but I do not think I will go today. There is a block or two with no sidewalks to get to it. So I would have to walk in mud. (OK, I could go across the street and walk down on that side walk. But I am lazy.)
I posted here about Pintoli compression socks. Since I said good things about compression socks and about the Pintoli socks I would like to be honest and upfront with you. The company liked my Amazon review and what I said about their socks and on Saturday I received free two pair of compression socks.
They sent one pair of Pintoli socks travel & trouser (large size) PTI-1067. They also sent one pair of athletic PTI-1066 (XL size) because I had blogged that I wanted to try XL.
I think you all know that I am honest about what I say here and a pair or two of socks is not going to bribe me. (It would take three pair. Just kidding. Smile)
Last night I was just looking around on the web to see what I could find. I found sites back in the Kansas City area that list who was arrested. It gives their names and information about them. In fact it list everyone arrested by that police department. I also found sites that list everyone in their jail and the names and information on the ones released.
The Cass County site listed people wanted. Long list. Thank God my name was not listed non any of my family.
In the listing of people in jail I did find the name of a kid that was my son’s age. So he would be about 30 years old now. He was a wild kid when he was a teen. We heard that the kid got arrested by the local police for drugs. Then a day or two later he was out of jail. He called my son and my daughter and we heard he called other kids their age and was asking if they could get him drugs. The police had offered him a deal, I guess, give us other names and set someone up for us.
Well I see he is jail now for domestic assault and for a felony probation violation.
I love the internet and information. I would have loved when I was working hospital security to access to all this sort of information. When I arrested someone I would have loved to look up and see what the charge was listed as and their court date and their bond and information like that and loved to know when they were released. Hell I arrested a guy one time and he must have had bond money in his pocket because a couple of hours later he came back to the hospital and I arrested him again.
Of course it sounds like some of those sites are not undated in real time.
But I also am not sure about the information. When I was a kid my father was arrested a couple of times for DWI. I would not have wanted that information out there for people to find.
I also had other family members that had got arrested. I would hate to have others finding that sort of information.
We lived in a small town (30K people) for years and the local paper printed the names and information of everyone that had contact with the police. I mean everything…. stopped for speeding…barking dog etc. I guess it all comes down to if it is someone else getting the bad PR or your family or friends.
