Not all of them. McNoName is still dead!

Beautiful country, TC!!
Thank-you! We have lived here for 35 years and my grand-mother was born just over the hill behind me. It’s home.
the connection between “they’re a private company and can refuse you service unless you wear a mask”...
...and “they’re a private company and can refuse you service because you are black”
********************************
I was reminded of the bakery owners: they’re a private compnay and can refuse you service because you are gay. But it didn’t happen that way:

That’s a beautiful view there on the farm! Slightly envious, in a way, but also happy to be on my modest acre (with a 161,000 volt power line crossing the far end of it). I really should do a little gardening on my land, since I have so much of it (relatively speaking).
Anyway, regarding the weather, we got the latest update earlier this morning from our meteorologist at work. The severe stuff will be centered over the northern border of Mississippi and Alabama, and the south-central part of Tennessee. Less severe, and less risk as you move northeast from there. Chattanooga, Nashville, Memphis all lie on the outer edge of moderate risk, but as you head north, the risk drops.
doesn’t mean that there won’t be any weather - some thunderstorms just passed over my area in the last hour or so - but the severity drops as you move away.
The high risk area has a fair chance of tornadoes, so anybody in AL. MS, or south-central TN keep your eyes peeled.

Fat, dumb, and happy apparently IS a good way to go through life.
Dean Wormer was wrong!
Yeow!!!
Covers a Tom of area...
Where’s the main website for this?
We watch for tornadoes anytime the wind blows. I just checked the weather and we are predicting almost four inches of rain now. I can deal with rain, thunder and lightening but don’t care for wind.
Thx :)
I’ve gotten 1.36 inches so far in my gauge since it started around 6 or so this morning. But more is coming.
4 inches isn’t unusual around here. Not an every-day rain event, but it does happen from time to time. Like yourself, I’m not worried about flooding at the house. I know the areas around here where flooding is a potential hazard, and I avoid them when necessary.
+1
Well, well, well - I guess I still had ‘emergency alerts’ enabled on my phone. I just got a weather alert telling me to be “weather aware” and to “know my safe space”.
Well, tonight, my safe space will be a heavy concrete building built into the side of a hill, designed to be tornado proof and bomb resistant. Can’t say the same about my house which is just an ordinary home. If I were at home when a tornado warning took place, my place is in the basement under the pool table.
That’s one reason I’m glad I have an old farmhouse. The old-timers knew where to build a house. I just read that Dayton might get over 7 inches. It sits right on the river and if they get that much the whole town will be under water. LOL
My house has done well - had a crazy wind event - actually 2 since I moved here in 2008 - one being the famous April 11 tornado outbreak, but a more recent one took down many trees in the woods behind my yard, and took down 2 large pine trees in my back yard as well. Both of those events, I heard some really scary noises and I fled to the basement.
Lost a little siding on one, and a couple of shingles (I’ve since re-done the roof), and a small maple tree I had in the front actually snapped at the base and was laying down in the front yard. Oh, and some shutters blew off. Loose stuff, structurally, the house is pretty sound.

yes, I remember
Racism in the workplace:
Cigna Health Insurance Asks Managers to Avoid Hiring White Men
Excerpt:
...One employee told the outlet, “Given the hiring practices they have in place where white, male candidates are blocked, regardless of qualifications, I have to say, ‘Yes, there’s obvious discrimination at this company.’”
On another occasion, an employee reportedly suggested a candidate with “years of industry experience.” The only problem? The candidate was reportedly white and thus could not be interviewed “because he didn’t meet the diversity criteria.”
***
When President Trump gets back he needs to eliminate critical race theory with extreme malice. It is a communist tool that is a cancer allowed to infest business unabated under Bidet. In the interim Cigna is another business to avoid at all costs. I have never had their insurance but if I did I’d be looking to switch immediately.
