Link Of The Week

The buzz for the past year in neighborhoods has been about meth labs and crack houses in operation under our noses, and we don't know anything about it until we hear it on the nightly news.  We're living proof of that when a meth lab was raided about a half mile from The Compound a few weeks ago.  People have no idea it's going on until the lab has been raided or it exploded. 

Another thing we watch out for is sex offenders living in our 'hoods.  Thanks to the registries, finding out if there's a convicted sex offender living near us is only a website away.  A good friend from work sent me this link from the Family Watchdog organization, where you can find out if in deed a convicted sex offender is living near you.  Just go to http://www.familywatchdog.us and click on the link on the right that says "find sex offenders close to me" and enter your address, city, state or zip code and it will bring up a map that shows all of the registered sex offenders near you.  I hope you don't find someone you know on there.
