Warning

Yes, buying illegal drugs is a health hazard, and this is clear proof of that assertion. This is just one thing you can never truly be sure of in the world today.

I don't love these stories but I don't want to see a child or pet get hurt. So, this is a warning for all of us in Alabama and something we all need to know.

I made this discovery when staying with my daughter and grandchildren for a few days.

Anything described as "creepy" and "invasive" is worth taking note of, in my humble opinion. Get familiar with the Hammerhead worm, which is now being spotted in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. These things are invasive, slimy and just serve no good purpose at all.
