our local Dick’s Sporting Goods has a uniformed officer in front now on weekends. I knew the officer and was told it was a national push from DSG to hire a uniformed detail. ---

I do work with a local youth sports league. There is a 70 yr old man who has operated the scoreboard for over 20 years and otherwise been involved in the program for over 50. He is a special needs man, with no name to assign to what he contends with. (based on conversations of people who have seen him at the park and work in SpEd - they can’t tell other than he has some delays and cognitive limitations.) As he has aged, he calls me a lot more. I am realizing I am part of his daily routine. If he sees any rain in the local news 7 day forecast, he calls. It is great to be someone he counts on. I feel badly not answering all the calls. Today is heavy call volume, at 12 inbound calls through 1PM. I hope I can keep up answering as many as I can for as long as I need. ---

Fair enough on both counts. I do recall seeing the warning but then being confused about where the reply belonged. I do agree that a warning is better than nothing, at least. ---

I was trying to think up some redundant names where the first name is similar to the last name. So far, every one that I’ve come up with has hits on google. Henry McHenry Michael Carmichael ---

I knew a Dr. Doctor and a Rev. Bible although that was when I was a kid. Also Carol Carroll, but Carroll was her married name… it’s not like her parents named her that. One more that I’m reluctant to share because others might know this co-worker. ---
