Blunt = one of the terms you learn when you return to college at an advanced age to study art and interact with 20 year old students! As to Woodstock, I am SOOOO envious! Do you have photos?

Heck no! That would have been "evidence." LOL I bet my boyfriend took pictures, but that was so long ago.

Don't be too envious. Traffic jams for miles and miles. Lots of heat, rain and mud. Hard to hear or see the musicians. Crazy people tripping out on acid, running around naked and having sex in the mud. I think I recognize some of them on CSPAN. Had to pee wherever I could find a place to squat. Did I mention mud? Wish I still had my ticket, however. (I actually had one, unlike the 500,000 people who crashed) I bet it's worth a lot of money. Probably lost it in the mud.

The strike lasted 3 days and has been over for more then 6 weeks now. I live in Canada, so whoever gave you the information that it's "been months" either does not know, or is being economical with the truth.

LOL...I knew what she meant by "blunt", but I thought it was more of a rap or hip-hop term. Well, I'm glad to hear Woodstock WAS really a sea of mud. My friends all went, and my husband (22) and I (19) were planning on going on Sat., but heard on the news it was a mud-fest, so we stayed home. Later, I heard the "sea of mud" was exaggerated by the officials to keep more people from coming. Regardless, I wasn't much of an outdoors type, so I probably would've been miserable.

Smile I Think This Has Something To Do With It:

How are out-of-state sales tracked?

The Southeastern Association of Tax Administrators (SEATA) exchanges information to help ensure transactions are taxed fairly across state boundaries. Member states collect and exchange audited sales and purchases information for other member states. Customers who are identified through audit verification will be billed for use tax, penalties, and interest.
The SEATA member states are: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia.

Thread necromancer! Nice first post, but come on, the story was from over 2 years ago. No need to dig up old stuff.
