Aug. 19th, 2008 11:16 am* A Friend in a similar northern clime posted a picture today of a shut-down business, a true sign of depressed economic times in her locale:

"NSNC" is how I code them in my notes- for "no show no call," just like my supervisors used on me at my work-study job 100 years ago.
