Good lord.
Terrible and nutz I know .. but I want that yarn in those spaghetti runs ..;)
This is nuts.
I heard today that there is a high pressure area hitting the Mid Atlantic states that will hold the storm over the Carolinas. This should produce a lot of rain.
Have you heard this or has this changed?
Yah, but--which one is the REAL track?
If we only knew ...
Uncertainty is the spice of life...
Not my 'thang' but thank you, sweetie.
LOL ..night, and hoping for all that Ernesto peters down to a breeze.
I bought a radio from the guy who advertises on Art Bell. This one has the crank and a solar panel. It also has a big LED light on it. Its very bright. Its a nice feature that you might want to consider. I did my checklist tonight.
1) Radio
2) MREs
3) two Cats and cages
4) Wine
5) Whiskey
6) Water
7) Cigars
8) Girlfriend
All set.
Good night -- I have to try to sleep --- jury duty in the morning. That 5PM - 8 PM super nap was a huge mistake. I might be back....
Hope you sleep ... I have to; 5 am wakeup call .. yawn. Good luck with JD, sweet O.
I'm going to call it a night, too.
I'll get up early to see where this bad boy is headed tomorrow..........LOL.
Going now. See y'all in the morning before jury duty summons me. Sweet dreams and stay safe.

Holy cow! It's just a JOKE!!!!
