Oh good news! I am so glad they got to it in time. The stress test did what it was supposed to, reveal circulation problems.
I’m glad the blockage is fixed by stents. Prayers continue and for Sgt. Ev, too.
FYI,the wind is gusting a little more gustitorially (did I use that right or does it refer to eating?) and the rain is steady and strong. It doesn’t appear to have any cyclonic rotation to the storm at this point. The generator is charged and ready, just in case, but we’re not expecting to need it. We haven’t saved any water. We are good to go with purification.
Got a request to the Church goers in our group and anyone else you know who are as well.
My career was in law enforcement as a criminal investigator, narcotics office and Chief of Police in two cities in Mississippi. One of my duties was to put folks into the jails, pens, even the gas chamber on two accusation's for murder. I know when a person hits the jail wide open he faces a whole new life but of course he made this choice for himself or herself. It is a cruel, harsh, mean life in the jails, not uncommon for rapes on young men and in fact it is the norm. BUT, I am one who believes that regardless what a person does it is our calling to do what we can to help them turn their life around. This is the reason I am requesting that you approach your pastor and ask him to collect Bibles and religious novels and take them to the jails in your area, it sometimes only takes ONE word to turn a man and woman to Christ. Won't you pleas get involved? Our a box in the lobby of your church and a sign ‘Bibles and Religious Novels for Inmates’ on the box. At the end of a month take them to the jail for them to pass them out, if a Chaplain is available he will be MOST happy, no one need to burn in hell so let us do our part.
Ain't preaching, just asking ‘youse guys’ to get involved, it will make you sleep good at night, honest.

I agree, I voted for Gen. Eisenhower and have never changed my party. Sometimes I get upset with them, but I will never vote for a socialist/communist/islamist/big mouth elitist.
Has anyone heard of The Mouth/biden telling of being under fire in Tusla? Roomey just heard a reporter say he heard biden tell of being under fire.
Biden partially fills a major weak spot - foreign policy and world affairs....leaving only about 58 other major weak spots - one for each state
Ha! I agree...57 he has visited and 1 not.
I’ve been following it for some time. I think 3 forensic document/computer whizzes have come to the conclusion nobama’s website has put up a fraudulent birth certificate. If his mother had been in Kenya during her last trimester a reputable airline would not have let her on board. I know, I was flying then. BUT, was she in Kenya? When she married Soetolo did she give up her American citizenship? Did Soetolo officially adopt Barry? Obama, according to one article claims to have been born in 2 hospitals in Hawaii, but one had not yet been built. He claims because he lived in another country other than America, he understand foreigners. He lived in Indonesia,but never learned the language. However, according to his friends, he could quote the quoran, including the rythym in which it is chanted.
I do know one thing....he doesn’t know American history, he thinks we have 57/58 states.
The news of obama’s Keyian birth comes from his father’s first wife, whom he calls grandmother. She told the press he was born in Kenya.
Hopefully Ev will shake his Johnson Lung quickly. I’d hate to see him pass it onto Mozie and Mr. M.
Stay safe, Jem and Toby.
Thanks for your O birth certificate posts.
Congratulations to Sgt Ev. I remember when I made it. In fact, no one told me I’d made it. While I was in the office, I took off my jacket and he took the jacket and pinned my stripes in place. As I was putting on my jacket I saw the stripes. My 1st Sgt gave a congratulary Picaune instead of a cigar...Almost knocked me out on the first puff.
hmmmm..”he took the jacket=they (the fellows) took the.....l.
All have a good night, a safe one and I will check in tomorrow morning.

That’s a wonderful memory.
OK. First season 24 finished. I can get back on with my life.
Wind and rain are still continuing. My flowers are getting a good soaking and my grass is green.
Things just turned interresting. A tornado WARNING has been issued for my county. I’m searching out the particulars now.
Yes, I’ve taken precautions already.
* UNTIL 615 PM CDT
* AT 539 PM CDT...THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDICATED A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM CAPABLE OF PRODUCING A TORNADO 8 MILES EAST OF RUSSELL COUNTY SPORTS COMPLEX...OR 6 MILES SOUTHWEST OF FORT BENNING SOUTH... MOVING NORTHWEST AT 45 MPH.
* THE TORNADO WILL BE NEAR... RUSSELL COUNTY SPORTS COMPLEX AND 7 MILES SOUTHWEST OF LADONIA BY 550 PM CDT... 9 MILES NORTHEAST OF UCHEE BY 605 PM CDT...
HEAVY RAINFALL MAY OBSCURE THIS TORNADO. TAKE COVER NOW! IF YOU WAIT TO SEE OR HEAR IT COMING...IT MAY BE TOO LATE TO GET TO A SAFE PLACE.
The winds have died down for a moment. I'm safe right now and pinpointing the storm on the local maps.
Well, the “AU Alert” just called to inform us about the tornado warning. There are six minutes left in the warning period.
The warning has expired. I’m expecting Fay’s westward movement to stall over Alabama and then begin a slow northeast movement. I’m thinking this will be through Monday or maybe early Tuesday morning.
