I learned something while I was in line at the bank. The two mooks behind me started talking about the weather. At first, they were just making general observations about the flooding and Harvey.
Then one of them said, "The sun is getting closer to the earth." I just thought ok so far. Then he said that the sun was gonna run right into us before long.
I looked at my feet and thought "Good lawd."
I almost turned around and asked him for a donation since we were gonna be fried to a crisp soon.
My Mama would have failed his ass. He would not have left her classroom thinking that.
Any advice on choosing between Medicare Supplemental plans vs Medicare Advantage?
I know people on DU have advice. lol
Lawd! A tropical storm watch has been issued for
2 South Carolina coastal counties.
Horry and Georgetown.
The weather has lost its mind.
I wish Nikki Haley was in charge of FEMA.
No, don't send anybody to check on me.
The only thing she did as governor that was handled well was preparing for Matthew and guiding people through the aftermath. No, she wasn't perfect but it was one of the better efforts I have seen.
She held periodic updates and didn't spend the time doing all the talking. She had the appropriate officials with her who gave reports. She actually listened to people.
She also stuck to her guns about evacuation and not cancelling it.
While at the UN, she has shown a propensity to leave the reservation. She will also tell people to go to hell or just do it her way. That might have come in handy.

At least he has worked in management of hurricane crises.
It could be Ben Carson and his 'state of mind'.
