Our law enforcement officers find all whatever they leave, clothes, water bottles, dead bodies, backpacks of mariijuana, meth, you name it. They REALLY work very hard.

Not a pleasant thing to talk about, but it is a fact of life. Put up those electrified border fences !!! Keep immigrants out.

Sorry folks, but I'm very passionate about this living right in the middle.

amen to that

Rt 66, the Mother Road, Onion fried hambugers. The motel scene from Rainman filmed here. Tom Cruze and Dustin Hoffman in town for a while with the film crew. And wouldn't you know it...they later tore down the motel where it was filmed. Go figure!

Notre Dame University. Go Irish. Actually Notre Dame is a city of its own, but South Bend and Mishawaka (my city) is right next door.
