BigStewMan Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 I never worried about earthquakes. Been through many of them, some pretty big; but the big ones are rare enough that I just don't think about them ... at all. Now, you guys that have hurricanes every year ... no thanks, I'll take my chance with an earthquake every decade or so. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 You're right, I'm always more comfortable with the evil I know than what's obscured and unknown! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a hurricane will not knock down your house, take out bridges, cause fires, knock down trees and leave you without power for weeks............oh never mind, your right. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been through the school of hard knocks plus some, spit on (almost, I moved quick) and cussed for a red cap I wear and yes used to watch the news so I've seen evil. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnJ Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Yea when I was in FL we knew and I've seen interstates turned into one way streets right in front of me.

JohnJ Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 That's funny, but my gut isn't feeling good right now about football for this year. Which country was it Switzerland or Sweden did not close down at all, doesn't require masks and their per capita rates of infection are lower than most of the countries that did hari-kari to their own economies! Kind of like the grown-ups in the Charlie Brown cartoons, the mumbo jumbo from the polit-bureau makes me think of this song and their disdain for "We the People" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
