Do tell. It's bad enough when city folks move to the country and expect to drag along an HOA + silly zoning to inflate their own property values...

On the day some slick wants to "Protect the Endangered Deer Populations of Western Tennessee" - whatchoo gonna do?

I say we buy lots of 3 inch shells....

I saw some pictures this morning from Union Univ. in Jackson. The student dorms were torn up. I don't know how no one was killed (if I have that right) but I know several kids are in bad shape. One is a son of a friend of mine from high school. I have seen pictures of a church in Savannah that was destroyed. This was a bad storm! And it just February!!

It seems to me that when we go from cold weather to a sudden rise in temperature, this is when the storms are the worst.

I've seen some pictures of those dorms - bare shells with everything ripped right on out the front walls! It's crazy looking....

Like a row of shipping boxes with the fronts opened up in a stack.

That's a lot of damage. Shoot - that right there is outright devastation!
It looks to me like there was nowhere anywhere inside them that a person could survive.

Old Miss looks about the same as Union College. I don't know how anyone wasn't killed.
