Store had whole chickens at .39. The use or freeze by date is tomorrow so I bought 2 and need to get them both in the oven.

Tiger king came out a year ago.

Cool, I think I've earned a merit badge for mostly ignoring that for one year.

Really, shouldn't there be life achievement merit badges? I can think of so many that they I should be getting: the never been arrested merit badge, the manual transmission merit badge, the squirrel and deer warrior merit badge, the bird photography merit badge (junior grade), the shade gardener merit badge, the urban bikers merit badge, the 5K/10K merit badge, the mustache insanity merit badge and the Iowa State gamewatch merit badge just for starters. It's a long list, my shoulder sash would be covered with them.

I could join you on about half of these. :D

couldn't you freeze one?

Reminds me of a pet peeves, stuff on sale with the "Previously Frozen" tag. Usually pass on stocking up since I don't like refreezing stuff. Did ask about the previously frozen walleye once this winter and they opened a box of the same, still frozen in vacuum freezer wrap.

Does being told to meet the cops down at the station to discuss something considered being arrested? I don’t think so, so I could cover most of those.

Teen me helped our chief of police break into my neighbors house back in small town Iowa. Crawled in through a basement window IIRCC (ah, 50 years ago). Turned out our neighbor had died in her sleep. :(

So, civic duty burglary badge?

That could be a slightly traumatic situation pending how the kid discovers stuff.

Not so traumatic but a bit somber. Gus was an elderly gal and was in her bed like she was asleep on her back like someone had tucked her in, just obviously quite dead and gray.

Co-EMT was on a call where the person had been there long enough where there was a smell and they had started to sink into the couch. That could mess a kid up.

My dad has found a body after the guy hanged himself several days prior. I think it was the middle of summer as well. I have never asked him about it, but I can imagine that is something that stays with you.
 
When I delivered meals on wheels in college I always wondered if I would find something but thankfully never did.
