The Safety Action Plan

Image
My town has drafted a proposal about safer driving & wanted citizens to read it & give thoughts. I did read it.  And I did have thoughts.  I do have thoughts on things but I have to be in a... quirky mood to actually voice what I'm thinking, which apparently I was on that day.  I messaged them saying this. On the Safe Roads Hattiesburg Safety Action Plan post it say, "Residents are encouraged to review the draft and provide feedback". I'm unsure what this means. I did review it, but am unsure what feedback means. I do have some safety issue concerns that weren't addressed, but I'm not certain that's what you're looking for. I only saw one thing that seemed to be a typo & an idea that I'm not certain will be beneficial. I'm not sure how to give feedback & if it's the "comment" on the draft at the top, I'd rather not do it that way. Could I just... say the things here? They responded with that this would...

The name is really because Lil' Small assumed I'd be making desserts with an actual Easy Bake Oven.  "Yes, sir. You'll want to come back in about three days for your dessert. Light bulb baking takes a while."   Which, I...

Earlier in the week, there was a scavenger hunt, turned deadly, in my home town.  New pledges of the  Delta Mu Chapter of Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity at the University of Southern Mississippi were sent off on a scavenger hunt.  One of the requirements was to take a photo of a flamingo.  But being nineteen, male, and probably drunk, they decided that stealing a flamingo would be more fun instead. Chilean Flamingo at local zoo; photo from local news Long story short; they broke into the zoo around one am, they abducted the female flamingo, and attacked the male flamingo when he came to the rescue of his mate.  They then proceeded to torture the female flamingo and then dump her injured, but still alive body, on my street.  The police were called, they returned the female flamingo, but her injuries were so terrible that she had to be put down.  Later that day the male flamingo died from his injuries sustained in the 'battle'. The guy who actually att...
