Wow. You have a Jack's? Try 1:15 to the closest Big Mac, Pizza, DQ, etc. The two country stores we have close at 7PM so you can't even buy gas until morning.
We don't have a Jack's but the town 10 miles away does.. lol.
We can get pizza from the Texaco. :-(
Walmart- about 30 miles away.
McDonald's - a little past Walmart.
We can get gas until 9pm or 10pm on weekends from the Texaco but the grocery store is locked up at 8. (unless you call them and tell them youre on the way and to please wait for you)

The police don't need 911 addresses to know where you live.
My spot in church is safe until at least 10 minutes after services start before someone sits there just in case I come in late.

I could prolly 'borrow' ground beef for supper if I called a friend or two.
If my kids get in trouble at school or the youngest doesn't turn in his homework his teacher texts me.
