WOW! Nothing has been on the local news, television wise. Can't speak for the newspapers, I don't subscribe to the Miami Herald. Makes good training paper for a puppy, though.

I'm going to call my father-in-law who used to be one of the guys who RAN the "Turkey" when he was a senior VP for FP&L waaaaay back in the day. He's got a Ph.d in nuclear physics, too. Have to see what this might have been about. Location is everything as they say. The snippet article doesn't specify exactly where the hole was found. But has anybody here ever started to drill a big hole by first starting a little hole, so that the bigger bit gets an easier BITE? Also, it occurs to me that a decent sized hole could be used to pack C-4 whereas C-4 wrapped around a pipe, while just as effective is also a bit more noticeable. What is going ON here? There must be local news cooperation to prevent a panic however perhaps it's already been covered and folks are just "so what" about the situation.

Me and the wife are sick and have been for a couple of weeks. It's something going around that just seems to hang on and we can't shake it. I've already lost a day without pay and so has she. No paid sick leave left, so it wouldn't surprise me if we missed this. Dang bug. You think it's almost "over" and it comes roaring back. Just a really sore throat and a bad cough. Docs can't do anything. Everybody around here has it or knows somebody who does. Thank the Lord that Spring Break starts at the end of this coming week.

Extra prayers in order for you and your wife tonight - to aid in your recoveries. Sorry to hear that ExSoldier.

Looking forward to your report after you talk to your father-in-law.

I have yet to find anything on this on the main stream news channels.

I'm so sorry you and your wife are sick.
I hope you get well ASAP.

I know when I get the spring crud, allergies, sore throat, coughing, etc,
it's tea with lemon and honey and at night I put Vicks Vapo-Rub on my
chest and during the day take Halls Maximum strength cough drops with
strong tea.

What a bummer.
Do get well soon.

Sorry to hear you're sick, ExSoldier. I started getting it and started using "Airborne" right away. It didn't drive it off completely, but it sure lessened the severity, from what I can tell.

I highly recommend the stuff.
