RE: the TV show AX MEN. Living the storm and seeing it on TV are very different. It brought back very unpleasant memories. I can still see the evidence every day. Men continue to work cutting and clearing the downed trees and I'm sure it will continue for many months to come.
One of the things we all noticed while watching on TV - they didn't capture the sound of the wind!!! It was a 36 hour long horrible scream and roar - we were without power for 101 hours/11 minutes here at my house. Some people were without power for 2 weeks!!
The river they mentioned (Nehalem) is the river I live on. It is just 50 feet from my deck but I am 40 above the river so flooding isn't something I have to worry about.
Here's a video you history buffs might enjoy:
(Wilkes county, NC, is the birthplace of the present Senator Byrd of West Virginia.)
m. obama will be MUCH MORE than just 1st lady in B. Hussein O's administration. It will be a co-presidency to, IMHO, a much greater extent than the clinton's ever imagined they had. I am just sick to death that the CRAT party is trying to ram this obama nightmare down our throats and there seems very little we can do to prevent it.
