Of course not! You gave up your struggle against the truth long ago.

That video was a lot funnier than the Woonsocket one, but I think maybe we should call a moratorium on these videos for a bit?

Another member of the forum with a taste in "comedy" that seems questionable at best.

It strikes me as a bit too "on the nose" to be truly funny. You can anticipate each set-up's so-called "payoff" long before it manages to get delivered.

To each their own.

This is not comedy at all, for Harris Ave. residents.



West Warwick residents on edge after overnight standoff

https://turnto10.com/news/local/west...-april-24-2024


"Georgio watched from the street as police, guns raised, swarm a home shortly after 9:30 p.m.

"It was scary. It was like world war three over here. Not what you want to be coming home to," he said.
For several hours, SWAT teams dressed in tactical gear surrounded the Harris Avenue home."

Great PBS video that shows West Warwicks rich history. Still a great little town many that many have called home for years.

Oh my God, I went to Dr Harrop when I was a kid. I wonder if it could be the same one? He WAS old!

Still watching - this is fascinating, thanks JB.

PS Do you know what year this is from? I'm wondering if Ill see a great uncle who was involved with the Historical Society and the Friendly Sons of St Patrick

Not sure of the year the video. That's too funny about the doctor I went to a doctor in West Warwick also when I was a child and I faintly remember it being in a house that was old but converted to his doctor's office and he was old also. What I most remember when I small was my dad taking me to majestic hardware when they first got the Honda mini bikes in.

That sounds like the same place. It was around this section of Main Street - could be a few houses down towards Clyde or maybe it's gone

1102 Main St

Used to be a red house, I believe. I liked going to him anytime I needed a physical for school sports or something like that. He basically just made sure your heart was beating and signed the papers. I still remember that stuffy waiting room with the creaky Victorian chairs
