I've never encountered a single tortoise that wasn't at least a little strange.

Fair point.

You said that you like storms.
A hurricane can be not much more than a strong thunderstorm or something very scary and dangerous. (Like being inside a strong tornado for HOURS)
I just want you to be prepared .

I definitely appreciate it. I do like storms but I like to be safe and enjoy them. Not have to worry about will we have a place to sleep after...I'll definitely take your advice!

At this time it looks like it's going to turn and avoid the continental U.S.
Lets hope.
Still, I bought my gas last month. I do every season.
Two generators are serviced and ready.

The Spanish Paralympic intellectually disabled basketball team in the year 2000, won the gold medal, but it later turned out that 10 of the 12 athletes were not disabled at all.
They had to return their medals.

Earth

Well, the surface of the Earth, yes.

We have already established that in the year 2003 the Earth officially had 2 moons.
In 2004, that figure had changed.
How many moons did the Earth officially have, according to astronomers, in 2004 ?

Here's something I'll contribute, before running kids to school...




My hubby is our history buff and he has always been interested in the Civil war. He's read libraries of books on
the subject! This year was the 150th anniversary of the Civil War and there have been reenactments all over the country. Ben has always really wanted to go to a re-enactment. Well, the kids and I kept it a surprise as long as we could, but my Western town had a Civil War reenactment for the first time. Apparently, right after the Civil War, some Civil War soldiers were sent to out West because of some skirmishes with the Native Americans. The reenactment was of Caspar Collins the leader of the Calvary that lost the battle vs about 1.000 Native Americans who banned together from multiple tribes..
They were massacred by over a thousand Indians.

The reenactment was pretty home-grown. The funny thing is that they even
had to do it !twice!, because during the first battle, the "Indians" were too excited and jumped out to kill the Calvary too early Despite it being "home-grown" it still got a claim to fame as being the largest re-enactment West of the Mississippi. It was entertaining to see some Indians chasing after Civil war soldiers on horses. I think the horses running around and the cannon fire were the best parts

Okay...now I'm off to settle my own skirmishes and get kids where they need to be

All posts get points depending on how amusing, interesting or silly they are.
Bonus points are awarded for mentions of things i like, such as cheese.
There are questions which score points for funny answers more than for correct ones.
Minus points sometimes occur, for mentioning processed or aerosol cheese for example or answering a question with an obvious, but actually incorrect answer.Or if your name is jaizei/Cameron or similar.
No one knows exactly how it works.....
........including me...
