You mean coming your way? Is there a shelter nearby?

Just checked the barge tracker for the Mississippi River out that way. ALL the tow boats and now nosed into the bank and hunkered down.   Imagine being on a boat and having to weather that mess. No thanks.

Looks like Purplelady might get some of this in a couple hours and atm, they are not expecting the storm front to weaken.


Last I heard, I am going to get some storms Sat night Sunday but nothing this bad is predicted for my area.  But that might change.

"..Amazon is going to be disabling the privacy feature that processes voice commands locally on Echo devices at the end of this month. Instead, all voice commands will be sent to Amazon's cloud for processing.

I have already followed my own steps to remediate this:

1. Unplug Echo Device
2. Throw Echo Device in Trash
3. Done .."

The number π is a mathematical constant, approximately equal to 3.14159, that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter.

I am anti certain tech. I was one of the last of our generation to get a cell phone and that was forced. It was simply impossible to exist as a human without one.

Good thing Biden is no longer in charge of American lives. You know like you leftists just sprung into action for NC. And yet you wonder why you lost the election.

I temporarily have a cell phone now but as soon as this house thing gets settled it is gone.
