About
Random thoughts, occasional rants, illuminating commentary, and an odd story now and then from the world of 9-1-1 dispatching. All this and more from a gay liberal atheist living in California’s Bible belt. I recently married, so MAGA beware! I’m your worst nightmare! Some names have been omitted to protect the innocent, but the guilty will be hung out to dry!

I think Visalia looked A LOT better back in the 1800’s. Before the superfluous amount of buildings. Ahhh to be back in the good ol’ days.
