A powerful tornado in Oklahoma on Thursday ripped roofs off buildings, knocked down power poles and sent emergency crews rushing into a rural community near Vance Air Force Base. The confirmed tornado moved across parts of Enid, a city of about 50,000 people near the state’s northern border, according to the National Weather Service. Video posted online show a rapidly rotating column of air touching down along with totaled homes. There were no immediate reports of fatalities and only minor injuries hours after the tornado passed through, according to the Garfield County Sheriff’s Office.
Enid is - or at least was when I was there back in the 70's - a classic small, redneck-ish kinda town where damn near everybody knows everybody, and, were it not for the tornado potential, would almost be an ideallic place to live if you're in to a small town, Barney Fife kinda lifestyle.

Ya know, they called it rock music, but it was much more than that, and I was - and still am - a huge fan of YES. For one, they are/were a class act - not ever hearing a single bad or malicious story heard about any of them. Truth is, though, they weren't rockers as much as they were musical conjurors - a stoner's delight. A turntable, a decent amp and a good set of headphones and there you are...

It'll be interesting to see if a feud between him and DeSantis develops, 'cause DeSantis'll eat this guys lunch seven ways to Saturday. Juss' sayin' that DeSantis should be the next President of this country. That is my honest belief.

LBJ’s wife did indeed start the “Make America Beautiful” program in an effort to reduce eyesores along federal highways. No more Burma Shave signs, billboards, dilapidated buildings, and increases in roadside trash pickup efforts. Also included planting wildflowers and shrubbery.
ReplyDeleteLadybird most certainly started a campaign to plant wildflower seeds along the highways of the nation, but whether all the phlox is a direct result who knows. Many states kept the program going in their own ways once hers ended. Some places actually denote specific wildflower areas with signs and warnings not to oick or mow. I know of several areas along GA highways with signage of that nature.
ReplyDeleteLady Bird also had many billboards along the highways removed.
ReplyDeleteJeffries is nothing but a lying low life con man trying to be obama.
ReplyDeleteI think ride alongs should be mandatory for all politicians, in the worst neighborhoods imaginable.
ReplyDeleteDon't let commiefornia see what Singapore does to drive a car.
ReplyDeleteSpanberger - anyone in Virginia who actually paid attention to the bitch's record is not surprised by her very far left tilt. We warned people.
ReplyDeleteAre they Virginian democrats, carpet baggers from either coast and or merely the newest fraudsters? My vote is yes.
ReplyDeleteAmen. The Yes album was a masterpiece.
