That same scam is also ran on every other payment method. These would all be prevented by not accepting checks that aren't for the exact amount and don't pay the difference in cash to the check writer.

Oregon is a lovely place to visit, but it is a mess to live in. After the tourists have left, it rains like crazy here. Mosquitoes are big as Sherman tanks. The people are unfriendly... and most of us are starving... Our freeways are jammed tighter than scorched rice pudding. Our smog is awful... some days you can't see from Molalla to Silverton. Fuel bills are so high most people just build igloos in the back yard and spend the winter there... There are no fish in the streams... and nobody has seen a rose around here for years. Actually what happens in the summer when tourists come is that we paint our hills green, put up false silhouettes for mountains, borrow a few lakes from Washington and California, and hire some actors to look cheerful. So... spread the word. Oregon is a great place to visit, but no place to call home.[

Now where is my participation trophy?

At some point I stopped listening to music while running, but I was a fan of the afterzhokz aeropex. They didn't seem to be a problem for me with sunglasses and a hat that I always run with.

Millenials once again serving as fall guys for the baby boomers.

Like the Robin Williams joke about Reagan, the animatronics on this one are are starting to run out. Disney needs a newer model.

A government using "safety" for political reasons? Never seen thst before.

Total Annihilation of the Core Commander.

"You're kinda raised to hate..." seems like kind of a common problem for humans.

Thats great news. I didn't even realize how long its been since the Umatilla site was finished.

not caring about what others think of my clothes, car, jewellery or gadgets.

That really goes a long way.

I'm just here for the blackjack and hookers.
