There are two state parks I like to go camping at. Campers who don't, find out the hard way. Squirrels and raccoons that aren't given their "protection insurance" ie 2-3 slices of bread, the squirrels will visit non paying campers in the early morning, while the raccoons will raid non paying campers during the night.

I paid the squirrels and had no problem with them unlike the two campers across from me. The squirrels made a mess of the neighboring campers campsite.

I neglected to pay the raccoons. That evening about dark I chased a pair of raccoons away. They brought reinforcements and had a party. They are all but 1 slice of bologna from a new pack, left only 3 pieces of partially eaten slices of cheese from a new pack, all my potato salad, and most of a loaf of bread, leaving me a mess of trash to clean up and a trip to the local grocery store.

Sign or no sign I pay both gangs to ensure my cooler of food and cooking supplies don't get raided when I'm sleeping.

Wow, and we think Possums are a nuisance when camping at the river.

Apparently cassette tapes are making a comeback...new stuff being released by artists...so unless they have managed to solve this problem....then they will be learning....and to keep a pencil near....

NDAs, Obsessive Buyers, and $400 for Sublime: Inside the Baffling Revival of the Cassette Tape

The humble cassette tape is in the midst of a revival, thanks to Billie Eilish, Taylor Swift, and other pop stars who are embracing the format.

@spike.t, you owe me. It's only 7:50 AM on the East Coast, and I already have coffee all over my keyboard and shirt. Oh, and I'm at work. BTW, coffee doesn't taste good when it comes out of your nose.
