I was talking to a coworker about these new phishing attacks that send your name and address and sometimes a picture of your house, and I was saying how creepy it is, and they told me that phonebooks were delivered to everyone and used to have like literally everyone in a city listed by last name with their phone number and address. Is that for real?

    I’m from Pittsburgh. I think we ran a cross country meet in Hershey once.

    The amusement park and factory tour are all quite charming. It’s hard to recommend one make a dedicated trip, but if anyone is ever on a road trip nearby, it’s worth the detour to stop by for a day.

    Then again, my recommendation is 20 years old. It could be either better or worse now.

      I’m from Pittsburgh. I think we ran a cross country meet It’s been maybe a little longer for me :)

      But in the meantime the park has grown from a neighborhood attraction to an east coast destination. I am always a bit amused when my coworkers vacation there.
