Thanks for the memories West Tennessee

You too, eastern Missouri, Mississippi, and a whole bunch of other places in the way of the New Madrid Fault.

One of my favorite Uncle Tupelo songs:

All my daydreams are disasters
She's the one I think I love
Rivers burn and then run backwards
For her, that's enough
They all come from New York City
And they woke me up at dawn
She walked with me to the fountain
And she held onto my arm
Come on, do what you did
Roll me under New Madrid
Shake my baby and please bring her back
'Cause death won't even be still
Caroms over the landfill
Buries us all in its broken back
There's a man of conviction
And although he's getting old
Mr. Browning has a prediction
And we've all been told
So come on back from New York City
Roll your trucks in at dawn
Walk with me to the fountain
And hold onto my arm
Come on, do what you did
Roll me under New Madrid
Shake my baby and please bring her back
'Cause death won't even be still
Caroms over the landfill
Buries us all in its broken back

 

Oh, Lord! It's the End of Days! The End of Days! We told you, heathens! We told you![/biblethumpers]

 

We felt some rumblings in my neck of the woods earlier this year. Not pleasant.

 

I'll miss Memphis.

 

Does that story mention the sand geysers that would just pop up out of nowhere?

 

Is this the same "devastating earthquake in the next 50 years" that we've been hearing about for the last 30 years?

 

Yes.

 

African killer bees are also making their way up from Mexico, I hear ...

 

I'm sorry, I don't think any news story should have "may" in it's first sentence. If it does it probably doesn't qualify as news, because any time you have a "may" you also have a "may not." It's a pet peeve of mine.
I hate studies that don't prove anything.
Coffee may cause cancer or coffee may not cause cancer.

 

You know whose fault this will be?

Obama's.

 

I assume he has the power to stop it, so yes. He'll be busy implementing a college football playoff while the earth swallows up a couple states. Bastard.
