Summary

Today. Slater and I are reading Reddit scary stories about close encounters with people who were not who they said they were. A man offers a woman her dream job, but the company doesn't exist!? A friendly neighbor starts knowing things he was never told. A first date takes a deliberate detour. And a hitchhiker carrying a small child through a Montana blizzard may have been one of the most dangerous predators in American history.

As you guys have heard, I ordered a lot of stuff from your small businesses in March. And now when I look around the rogue detecting society, I see a reflection of you all. My coasters, my mugs, my blankets, some candles, all from you guys. And I absolutely love that. I would not have it any other way. And to say thank you for Slater popping by.
