I always have to buy a filter or just buy bottled water. <br /><br /> The worst places were in #<span class="tag"><a href="https://nu.federati.net/tag/mississippi" rel="tag">Mississippi</a></span> (Jackson, Starkville #<span class="tag"><a href="https://nu.federati.net/tag/ms" rel="tag">MS</a></span>), #<span class="tag"><a href="https://nu.federati.net/tag/louisiana" rel="tag">Louisiana</a></span> (Baton Rouge #<span class="tag"><a href="https://nu.federati.net/tag/la" rel="tag">LA</a></span>) and #<span class="tag"><a href="https://nu.federati.net/tag/california" rel="tag">California</a></span> (Irwindale #<span class="tag"><a href="https://nu.federati.net/tag/ca" rel="tag">CA</a></span>). <br /><br /> In Irwindale, the water came out looking like diluted milk ... and stayed that way several minutes later. It is an old rock quarrying town, so I suspect it was just rock debris suspended in the water. <br /><br /> In Mississippi, the water came out yellow for a few days before getting clear again. The same thing happened in #<span class="tag"><a href="https://nu.federati.net/tag/batonrouge" rel="tag">Baton_Rouge</a></span>, but it was only one or two days and it only happened once.http://activitystrea.ms/schema/1.0/post2022-11-22T17:33:23+00:002022-11-22T17:33:23+00:00http://activitystrea.ms/schema/1.0/personhttps://nu.federati.net/user/2lnxw48a1Main account.

In some countries, they just do not have the infrastructure set up to allow that. But I noticed when I was working in #<span class="tag"><a href="https://nu.federati.net/tag/batonrouge" rel="tag">Baton_Rouge</a></span>, #<span class="tag"><a href="https://nu.federati.net/tag/la" rel="tag">LA</a></span>, one time that three out of five men did not even pretend to wash their hands. One out of five pretended, and one out of five actually did. As a fairly heavy coffee drinker, I spent a lot of time in the facilities "returning water", so I got pretty good at telling what was happening just by the sound.<br /><br /> Think about that for a moment. In a government office in the US, handwashing rates were approximately the same as the global rate, which includes people in countries or areas where soap and running water are not available.http://activitystrea.ms/schema/1.0/post2020-03-15T20:25:29+00:002020-03-15T20:25:29+00:00http://activitystrea.ms/schema/1.0/personhttps://nu.federati.net/user/2lnxw48a1Main account.

There was a big storm moving in (with tornadoes and everything) and lots of wind and rain, but it was drive to the casino or starve, so Mark and I met there, while S went to a different casino in another parish. We were already inside and eating when the power went out. It came back after 10-15 minutes, and they let us stay there and eat (but they were not serving new guests until power came back). After we finished, he went to play some slots and I started my trek back to the hotel. Power went out again before I got out of the building. <br /><br /> I hadn't taken my company cell phone with me, so when I got back, I found that management was freaking out about the storm and afraid that people may have been hurt or killed. One guy had gone to see a movie (on Christmas day, imagine that) and turned his phone off. They had called everyone at least twice (and they followed with another couple of calls after I got back to the hotel). It was probably almost 17:00 US-Central when the movie guy turned his phone back on and found that he had dozens of panicked messages.<br /><br /> Lesson learned: get something that tastes decent that you can eat in the room instead of going to hotel and casino banquets for holiday meals. The casino food was expensive and not very good. There was a huge quantity, but there's only so much one person can eat.http://activitystrea.ms/schema/1.0/post2019-12-25T19:27:08+00:002019-12-25T19:27:08+00:00http://activitystrea.ms/schema/1.0/personhttps://nu.federati.net/user/2lnxw48a1Main account.

I noticed a couple of years ago that they had a sign saying they now accept EBT for hot food purchases. I don’t know what restrictions, if any, remain.http://activitystrea.ms/schema/1.0/post2018-12-09T00:14:54+00:002018-12-09T00:14:54+00:00http://activitystrea.ms/schema/1.0/personhttps://nu.federati.net/user/2lnxw48a1Main account.
