It is easy to spot a fake. Also don't freaking sugar coat. And they should live it in order to preach it. And for the love of everything good, don't tone it down. Tell it as it is.

Some of those folks are going to make fine apprentices for Satan one day!

Sometimes I feel like I'm not in the position to make that judgement, but I agree with you guys.
We had a really bad, bad rain and thunder storm here last night. But no damage. Can't say that for my neighbors in VA and NC.
I haven't seen anything, but just finally opened today's paper and read 3 people were killed when their mobile home was lifted and slammed into an oak tree 100 yards away! Holy shi*t!
Sometimes I think Columbus shouldn't have been such a curious George ... It seems like most of this continent shouldn't have been inhabited...
no, the choc lab adult is the proud mama of 10 pups. Some chocolate, & some black...
Oh, okay. Congrats to the family.

I'll never get over the disparity of weather in this one country. Glad you survived okay.

Well, like I said, you can't help it if you have a gut feeling.
BTW, I saw the face-painting photos in your profile. So cute! Chow and I sometimes go out to this place that started out as a produce stand and now features that, and arts and crafts, and antiques, etc. There's a nice duck pond, and there's usually a live band that plays, and a woman who paints faces. I always envied her job and wanted to do that, and in that surrounding. You're living my fantasy, LOL.

Yikes guys....are you saying we deserved the tornadoes, death and destruction because Columbus was a greed and glory monger?
No. Just that the greed comes full circle.
