“”Does anyone still chew gum?””

She apparently does or has a fetish!! Not surprised that I didn’t see a picture of the “usual” suspect...in Irvine, they’d stand out like a sore thumb. OR perhaps not - been gone from there for 20 years...no telling the “makeup” of the citzenry there now...

Well, she can now be hauled in -in California you can only steal up to $950/day before being charged. Too bad she didn't have a calculator like a number of thieves do when stealing things to make sure they're under the $950 limit.

I used to love chewing gum. Too many dental issues now as I’ve gotten older. 😞
