At the radio station? Extremely.

I can definitely point anybody who wants to a good tech recruiter. She was the architect for all this.
On a totally unrelated note, I've been watching some videos on "sovereign citizens" and...good lord. Just when I thought Trump supporters were the dumbest bunch, these morons raise the bar to all new levels.
Be suspicious if anyone in the South tries to sell you a "genuine eyeful tower."

2) How do you steal a radio tower and no one notices?!
3) How do you not notice your radio station isn't transmitting?
It's AM, no one was listening.

That, and:
The tower was probably built way back in the hills with only a 5 mile dirt road leading to it, because it was cheaper, so there was nobody to witness the act
and
It's a radio station, it's probably been reduced to a manager and 2 sales guys, and they outsource one engineer part time to keep everything running, but all the content and on-air "talent" is prerecording their show out of Denver and it's all automation and smoke and mirrors after that, indiscernable from 300 other radio stations across the country airing the exact same thing at the exact same time.
And then OH OH OH, OH REILLEEEEEEEEEEY
Auto parts.
OW
They belong to ME. Period.
Well are you going to pay for postage to get them sent to you? From places like Walla Walla, Keokuk, Cucamonga, or Seattle?
You guys know that scene in the Godfather when Michael and Enzo the Baker are standing in front of the hospital to guard the mortally wounded Don Corleone, and Enzo is so terrified that his hands are shaking too hard to work a cigarette lighter, so Michael lights his cigarette for him? And there's a brief moment afterwards when Michael looks at the lighter in his hands with an expression of mild surprise, because his hands aren't shaking at all? It's like, being scared is normal in this situation, so maybe Michael is pondering why he's not scared, and what that says about him. Basically, you don't really know how you'll react in any given situation until you really find yourself in it, and your reaction may be unexpected and illuminating.
Anyway, today I accidentally spilled an entire soft drink on my father in law, and to my surprise I didn't feel embarrassed at all. It's weird cause feeling embarrassed about something like this should be normal, especially since my FIL has always been nice to me. Maybe I just don't feel embarrassed about spilling beverages on people? What does that say about me?

I haven’t received anything from them in months. I’m suspicious.

Unpopular opinion, but "chocolately" chips are better than real chocolate when it comes to ice cream.
As a Belgian, I'm afraid I will now have to ask you to meet me in the courtyard for pistols at dawn.
Since I most definitely won't be up at dawn, though, let's meet up for ice cream in the afternoon.
From how much?

I spent $50 in May of 2022. It went down as far as like $12 at one point.
But WHY?!? Are people really tripping over themselves to get at Dick Tracy? I don't remember a huge demand for it when it came out the first time. And frankly, the only reason I know Dick Tracy still exists is because of the Comic Curmudgeon.
Maybe it's better Annette Bening seems to be the breadwinner in that house.

From what I've read, it's to spite a specific disney bean counter and another studio that tried to make a TV version without him.
He probably thinks that character is about him.
