    it seems like whenever we have something tragic in the news, there are always several ideas about what really happened, how it happened, and why it happened. The latest one is the shooting in Minneapolis of one of the paid rioters who had a combat handgun and several magazines, which would have...

    Catastrophic flooding in Western Washington State.

    They called it an “atmospheric river”, which is apparently really wet clouds, and the jet stream put it right into the Seattle area, and then just stopped , so the rain keeps coming down over the same areas, and flooding all of the rivers, as well as snow on the mountains. Many of the main...

    I was just reading this on X, and it seems to be another anomaly, because they do not normally have the gigantic waves like this. Has anyone heard anything more about what caused this ? @Jacob Petersheim , maybe ?

    Fruitcake….. yes or no ?

    I love fruitcake and look forward to having some each year during the holiday season. I just noticed that Walmart had the little fruitcakes on their website now, and I ordered one for us, since Bobby likes fruitcake also. This is something that my mom used to get every Christmas season, and...
