 And it was a rough neighborhood. We were always getting accosted or beat up. My brother and I delivered newspapers before the sun came up each morning. Got chased by stray dogs. We had squirt guns filled with ammonia so that we could defend ourselves against the stray dogs. With ammonia? Are you serious? Yes. It had the drawback that it would dissolve the squirt gun after a while. We had to replace the squirt gun.
