    Yeah this doesn’t do squat to prove or disprove anything to these nutters.

    I’ve done the same with a variety of other things and you will get told the same thing:

    God put it here.

    Thing is you cannot argue with the above statement because it falls into that sort of argument you used to have when you were a child when the other kid would say ‘Nyah! Last word!!’ or ‘I can’t hear you!!’

    They were a joke anyway. We would always get a shipping box from Amazon, ten times the size of whatever we ordered with maybe one of these ‘plastic pillows’ thrown in for protection - just bouncing around. It was such a joke.

    They would never put enough in to protect the item or pick a carton to be a closer size.

    In the end it just was more plastic waste.









  • Am in NC but have family right over the state line in TN. Can tell you they got it as bad if not worse in places. Where the Nolichuckey winds through some of the mountain counties there are areas where all the bridges/roads in those counties are completely washed out. The water isn’t receding fast enough either.

    We’ve been in continual contact with friends who are completely stranded. No way in to the area and no drinkable water.

    The news is not covering it and what they are is making it sound like there are only a handful of deaths when in reality there are probably dozens of people (or more) missing.

    Am afraid this is going to just all get brushed aside for some other ‘News blip’ come next week.
