This actually happened last November, I don't know why it's hitting my news feed now.

The plane had problems and crash-landed outside of Milwaukee, sliding across three holes on the golf course, snapping off its wings and spilling 300 gallons of aviation fuel into a marsh. The three people on-board and some of the dogs had minor injuries.

And the dogs started getting adopted out pretty much on the spot. A fund-raiser for the dogs' increased expenses rapidly blew past its $5,000 initial goal and is now sitting at $11,000.

Keep in mind it's a very small city, 35,000 or so. And it's being held back, a council of unelected people are trying to keep it in the '50s.

New Mexico legalized recreational marijuana about a year ago.

I think we may have more licensed recreational marijuana dispensaries than churches now! And that's saying a lot! We definitely have more dispensaries than title loan locations now as some dispensaries have moved into said sites!

It's quite amazing how many dispensaries have sprung up. I've seen so many, and it seems like a new one opens every month. Next to our Arby's they put in this building with a BBQ and a title loan company, now the latter is a dispensary. A State Farm agent moved up the road a couple of miles, old site is now a dispensary.

One thing that's tricky about NM and legal recreational MJ is transport. Because we're a border state, there are several Border Patrol checkpoints. And MJ is still against federal law. It makes it hard for distributors to move product from the north to the south and vice-versa as these checkpoints are at certain choke-points on major roads.

My wife bought some chocolates, they don't do much to me that I can notice but she says they help her with her stress levels.
