fire watch & evacuations, and flood watch at the same time are the VERY LEAST of the reasons I wouldn't & couldn't live in that miserable state.

15. Your absence is noted.

And very much appreciated.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

16. And that's not worst part. Worst part IMHO are the red

areas where no one seems to read the news. Or care about the world in general.
