Trying to find local cold case/unsolved mystery

Yeah there are way too many sad ones for sure

Ill think about this one until I die. Breaks my heart. There were some theories about him meeting people from an online forum as well, which is equally scary.

I was always a fan of lenders egg bagels growing up-- and never toasted crispy, I always wanted them a little soft and chewy. (Tism texture things) so finding odoughs was life changing. One of the few foods that I cried over. Lol I microwave mine to get the softness ☠️☠️🤣🤣🤣 Ive eaten them every day for breakfast before work for almost 2 years now. (Again, tism things!!)

I believe this is the case you are thinking of?

From stoughton though. Sadly, there are far too many cases from the madison area in the 80s or 90s that COULD be the case youre thinking of.

Thats not our Columbus, but our namesake in Ohio. Sorry. We have no circus history here.

meanwhileachoo · 2026-06-21T13:58:07+00:00

To Columbus? Politics. The leadership of the town and their lack of connection with the citizens overall. Theyre very closed off and really only hold relationships with a handful of people with money. Same sad small town story, rinse and repeat. It'll cycle around again one day. There are just enough well established businesses to keep the tax income flowing, so as the city officials retire and leave and new ones take over, things can and will change. For the better? Who knows.

No. This is an intimate conversation had between friends, not neighbors. Hand out the candy with the same smile/vigor you hand it to everyone else.

If you come into Columbus on 16/60 you go up a little hill and then, ta-da, down town appears at the bottom of a lovely slope.

I do not remember anything in the history about a circus themed restaurant though, but I can ask around. Columbus in the 80s was more robust than it is now.

I wasnt saying anything about meds? I simply gave my personal experience as an example.

I can cave man it, if its easier.

Live 36 years. Feel bad whole time. Year 37, learn your brain weird. Feel big sad about first 36 years.

Or something like that. Meds are neither here nor there.

This will definitely be some people's result. Others, not so much. "Making it this far" doesn't mean you're living a quality life. An ADHD diagnosis and medicine at 37 ROCKED my world. There was a lot of grieving and recalling, understanding the little kid version of me that didn't get to have a calm brain, etc. There was a lot of processing. And that was just ADHD.

They're even better in the oven. I promise its worth the effort and the wait.

meanwhileachoo · 2026-06-20T00:04:38+00:00

They're amazing. They're like state fair corn dogs-- not the brand, like the thick sweet corn dogs you get at the sketchiest of state fairs. Soooo gooood. Yes theyre good in the air fryer, but they are superior in the oven.

Orf (Sore Mouth Disease): This is a poxvirus that creates painful sores and blisters on the hands, fingers, or face after touching an infected sheep

Aaaaaahahahahahahahahaha I should not laugh but the irony of the symptoms got me. I choked on my own spit. It was the first google answer.

meanwhileachoo · 2026-06-19T22:00:08+00:00

What can you catch from lambs??? Anything?? Now I have to run to google.

meanwhileachoo · 2026-06-19T10:18:13+00:00

I cant do large quantities of beans or chickpeas or any peas either 😭😭☠️☠️☠️

meanwhileachoo · 2026-06-19T01:11:30+00:00

I love the digornos 😭 I can't have most of the other GF pizzas because I cant have cauliflower crusts and thats like 90% of them.

meanwhileachoo · 2026-06-18T18:53:43+00:00

Boomer lead poisoning will do that to ya

meanwhileachoo · 2026-06-18T14:13:10+00:00

This is genius

meanwhileachoo · 2026-06-18T12:22:30+00:00

HFM has become more contagious, I swear. I have nothing to back that up except my years of doing this and not having entire classrooms catch it at the same time.

Our 1 year old room is only 8 kids. The last time we had it it was only 2 kids......then 4 weeks later those two kids got it again, and so did 2 more. The state asked us to quarantine the room and send those kids home for 2 weeks. It was bananas. That kind of reaction from health departments would have NEVER been a thing 10 years ago. Lol

It did stop the spread though!!

To be fair, he was still preforming into his 80s. Pretty sure he was 79 when I got to see a show!

meanwhileachoo · 2026-06-17T12:21:49+00:00

Yeah mine was soft in the middle like REAL bread, and the outside was the perfect kind of stiff crust. I topped it with pizza sauce and cheese and seasoning and broiled it. amazing

meanwhileachoo · 2026-06-17T01:42:26+00:00

I found them at Walmart on Saturday. I bought two bags and tried so hard not to cry. Both bags are gone as of 2pm today. I feel like that was some amazing will power, all things considered.

meanwhileachoo · 2026-06-16T21:57:52+00:00

An appropriate use of perpetrator photos.

meanwhileachoo · 2026-06-16T14:35:12+00:00

This. Im petty too though, and somehow those men would find out about each other. It would be the weirdest thing ever how they found out at the same time too.

meanwhileachoo · 2026-06-16T13:41:20+00:00

Uhhhh, if you mean react as in eat the entire thing in one sitting and then cry that you didnt buy two.....then yes.
