    Oh-h-h-h, you're so right about that! I blundered into that meat-grinder once, quite innocently and was shocked about the horrified response to what I thought was just a cute comment.

    Although I grew up in East Texas, I moved here after retirement. My wife still works.
    I do have a friend from Waxahachie that worked there as a youth.
