Baby Blues 02/20/2014

One of my favorite strips out there. By Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott.



Needless to say my favorite character is the middle child, and only boy, Hammie.

88 Wheels, Tires Stolen Off Cars at Galveston Dealership

http://www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/88-Wheels-Tires-Stolen-Off-Cars-at-Galveston-Dealership-244746421.html

Thieves have stolen the wheels from 22 new cars and trucks at a Southeast Texas dealership and left the vehicles on unsteady wooden blocks.

Texas City police are investigating the theft of 88 wheels, including tires, from DeMontrond Chevrolet.

The Galveston County Daily News reported Monday that some vehicles fell off the blocks and have frame damage. No damage estimate was immediately released.

Investigators believe the theft happened between Saturday night and Sunday morning when the dealership was closed. Sgt. David Fairchild says the crooks cut the locks off the gates, snipped wires to light poles and stole the wheels.


Damn, that's a lot of wheels and tires. Took a while, time and space to haul them off. Surely someone saw something?

Please explain Heroin's allure to me.

Because I don't understand. I'm a 56 old white male. I smoked cannabis about half a dozen times about 30 years ago, and all it did was make me hungry and sleepy. So I gave it up. I have never used tobacco. The only alcohol I drink are frozen mixed drinks, and I can't remember the last time I had one. I don't like getting drunk or high because I do not like to be out of control of my senses. I even quit taking some OTC antihistamines because they make me high. So I do not understand the allure of something that has shown repeatedly to be so deadly to so many people. And why are so many creative people seemingly drawn to use Heroin?
