Oh sweet Bodega, how I appreciate you. Other gas stations sell gas, sodas, beer, and snacks. But that’s not good enough for you. You rip out the pumps and add rolling papers, counterfeit NBA gear, phone cards to Mexico, and little lighters that look like grenades. If it weren’t for you, were would I go to buy rolling papers, a snaple, two dirty magazines and a five dollar Spurs hat all at once? If it werent for your strict policy of 24 hour operations with two employees, My friends and I would be shit outta luck when we are craving some beef jerky and a phone call to honduras at 2am. Your colorful selection of novelty lighters has entertained me when I was broke. Your floor to ceiling selection of papers, blunts, and incense has been a godsend for that midnight cruising emergency. So here’s to you Mr. Bodega owner. Thanks for being that guy.
A bodega is a convenience store that dosent sell gas, and has lots of nudie mags, malt liquor, rolling papers, chore boy for the crackheads, international phone cards, Counterfit NBA hats, gun shaped lighters, four year old spam, and head rags. Usually run by pakistanis.
Sounds like a 7-11. The one in my town used to be runned by Pakistani's for awhile. But it got back by some White's several years back. Nothing beat seeing one of those crazy Pakistani's chase my friend Paul out of the store and up High Street with a machete. Soon after, that crazy employee was hauled off out West to Brentwood lol.
No, there for making drug deals. They even do that around here. Alot of the times when big time dealers get busted in a raid, lots of calling cards are found. They think its safer and they cant be traced.
I don’t know about anymore, but it used to be that CDMA and TDMA phones were just about foolproof. As long as you kept moving, it was impossible to intercept your call. Base stations assign CDMA phone calls a code that identifies that call. Your conversation is spread out over a channel and a half (spread spectrum) and then overlayed with hundreds more phone calls. The code your phone is assigned while on that base station is what keeps you from hearing other people calls. As you roam and hand off to other base stations, your call is assigned new codes on new channels. So to intercept one, you would have to be at the transmitting base station, know the code, and have a decoder to piece together the call. Perhaps now they have a way to track a call across the network but I bet you some cash that if you allow your phone to roam onto other networks, anyone listening in will get the slip.
