I have heard such stories, of Jewish folks who were laughed at for leaving Europe and fleeing to other parts of the world, while the ones who stayed where they were, ended up dead. Those who had fled were had no relatives left alive back home.
Personally, my family and I were very concerned about Y2K. We made some MAJOR changes in our life to get ready for that. Were we wrong? Well, here it is 2005, and I still see life through different eyes. I am more self-reliant, could get by without electricity or water for a while and am MUCH more prepared to defend myself and my loved ones. So, even though Y2K in and of itself wasn't as castastrophic as it might have been, prepping for it and changing my worldview has stayed with me; I'm a better person for that, am trying to continue on that path of awareness and resourcefulness.
My point, each of us needs to pay attention, pray for guidance, and be ready, willing, and able to make major changes, maybe even at a moment's notice. Who would you rather be, the Noah building the ark, or the rest of the folk who taunted him and scoffed at his preps?
Quix, thanks for your input. I am an average person, not real smart, but I have learned to pay attention. I find super bright people such as yourself great resources for insight and help percolating lots of info and seeing what is useful in my life. I admire your resilience in taking the heat from ... imbciles -- I mean, um -- the ones who disconfirm and ridicule what you say and denigrate who you are. Keep up the good work.
Keep on praying folks! May we all abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

goes back to trusting in Him.
To you, I say your post is absolutely magnificent...up until I became lost after "officeholders negligence at any level..."
To compare the tragedy of the decades of lying "leadership" in New Orleans to the ignorance regarding illegals in our borders is truly brilliant!
Man, I'd like to see a picture of that. Reminds me of that scene from "Independence Day" with all the crowd at the big "let's go make nice with the space aliens" party on top of the building in Los Angeles. Next scene: Alien ship depolys main energy weapon and unloads fatal mega-ZOT to all of L.A. and nearby -urbs.
I guess you could be in Iraq
Get some sleep
LOL
nah I am in Dayton right now :)
Back when I was in Iraq, I would have been towards the end of my shift....
Then why are you back? Retreads are frowned upon here.
I didn't see your original post, so I'm not prepared to judge. Just be aware that if it was bad enough for you to get banned, you won't last long under your new screen name.
"I still think he posted an uncorraborated story designed to do wxactly what it's doing right now."
your post pulled for some odd reason.
"speculation"
lol
Orlando Salinas in Gulf Port,Mississippi adding to what I reported here last night...18-wheelers are being stocked with dead bodies, the call is being made for help pulling bodies out of homes along the coast. Entire families are dead from drowning in their homes and under rubble.
Alert the Mod's...please...

PLEASE REPOST THE STORY IN BREAKING NEWS IT IS NOT SPECULATION.....IT WAS ON FOX NEWS....
Usually that means a retread "nuke on sight" troll.
So, there are people out there who being multiple retreads will be nuked on sight no matter the content of their posts.
Saw that happen once or twice personally.
Usually some opportunist shows up and says "But tehy didn't DO anything!"
To which the mod, if feeling like giving an explanation, says "They are a serial retread on the nuke on sight list."
We've been inundated lately. Nothing like a disaster to bring out the weird in people.
I guess Hugh Hewitt might owe you an apology when this is all over.
Dr. Michael Baden on Greta's show also said death toll might exceed the 3,000 of 911. The camera also picked up a guy spraying a bright orange square with and "X" through it which usually means the house has been searched. Then he painted a numeric "7" Which i translate as seven bodies in that house. This was in Gulfport. So, I guess they can pull threads off of here. But at some point these numbers are going to be overwhealming in my humble opinion.
Well, that's between you and the mods.
If you've for real, then welcome. If not, prepare to have my kittens chew off your toes.
